When all of this is “over”, it's not going to be good enough to say “We shouldn't have let that happen. It'll be better now.” That's just lying to yourselves and everyone else for 4 years.

The only acceptable outcome from a world power who has gone this far off the rails is “we've made it so that it *can’t* happen again.”

@sean That's what everyone thought after WWII and well, you already stated what's happening...

@jrf_nl @sean Catching up on my WWI and WWII history, I was amazed to learn how poorly the fallout of WWI was handled. How soon after WWI the DAP (which later became Hitler's NSDAP) was formed, how quickly antisemitism, German nationalism exploded... All directly resulting in an unavoidable WWII... When this is "over", there needs to be a clear sign "we will never stand for this again", there need to be consequences, there needs to be punishment.
