No you aren't. The stain that the majority of voters did not prevent him (twice) cannot be erased by wishful thinking.

It is not the women's job. I agree. But women have to support each other and look out for each other in these situations. And making it public will help some men present realise how prevalent this shit is and that they should never tolerate any of their male friends to do this.

Also Confirmation Bias - they only looked for corroborating facts and never tested their hypothesis.

Unfortunately there is another side to this - once it is perceived that you are making empty threats, you can either stop - or do what you threatened to do to regain credibility.

Don't mix the topics - our discussion started with the guillotine as a means to an end. Not every revolution was bloody and messy, as you will of course know since you claim to be versed in human history.

You cannot have it both ways - not defending Robespierre and at the same time approving of his methods.

Overthrowing one government to put something as bad in its place is not a desirable alternative. 'Death is a part of life' in a dialogue about ethics sounds exculpatory. Justifying collateral damage is the very thing destroying any legitimacy of a political movement.

If the perpetrators did not fear the law, they would not need to lie and try to bury the evidence. I believe there will be consequences. That Epstein thing cannot be forgotten any more, investigations are happening all over the world and the DOJ won't be able to stop them.

Can you bring an example of at least one non-French historian who sees Robespierre as a bringer of the Republic without also mentioning his reign of terror?

The French are deeply divided on this. Look up the so-called 'Republic of Virtue' and form your own opinion. A good example about how a Utopia can turn into a Dystopia.

No - that is the vigilante position. Arrest, give due process, a fair and comprehensive trial and then a sentence. And act according to that sentence. If it is prison, then let him go to prison. Everything else is as Trumpian as he is.

I am afraid of terror, no matter which side is in the driving seat. It is always the case that the innocents suffer with the guilty.

I am not an Anglais. My argument was that introducing a guillotine and going on a murder spree under the guise of 'accountability' when it is mostly hatred and not the search for truth motivating you will not bring the desired outcomes. It will bring chaos.

Not too well. It started a reign of terror, was met with counterterror and paved the way for a new emperor.

I think as soon as this becomes possible, shadow docket decisions have to be declared unlawful. It is inconceivable how the Highest Court can give a decision, but not the reasoning behind it. This has to be one of the reforms of SCOTUS (besides term and age limits and binding ethical guidelines).

Several Trump-lawyers have been disbarred already. All attempts to indict people on Trump's personal enemy's list on fake charges have failed. Trump is losing far more cases than he wins: www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-ser...

Right now the DOJ try to buy more time, but they have already missed several deadlines to appeal part of the rulings.

They are treated the way the law demands. And the judge will do every step according to the book - for only then will he be able to get them for contempt. It won't be long now for that to happen.

Maybe Xi makes some jokes about Chinese courts to make them feel as uncomfortable as they should be in that situation.

What a fantastic idea. And also a treat for the ensemble to potentially encounter an´audience that is totally new to this. This makes me happy.

This is acerbated by the stupidity of the ruling parties in countering the fascist narrative - instead of pointing out solutions they try to woo right-wing voters by adopting the arguments of the right-wingers. But why should people go to a tribute band when the originals are still touring?

When I wrote 'they' I referred to the German government. As for the German voters - the right-wing parties all over Europe, supported by Musk and Putin, gain followers due to the inefficiency of the moderate governments to address the real problems like food prizes and housing.

They would stand up against genocide EXCEPT when the state of Israel is involved. (Mind you, they do not represent the German population there - according to German polls Germans can differentiate between pointing out the Gaza genocide and antisemitism and are strongly critical of Israel policies).

sheethaduskrunner.bsky.social @sheethaduskrunner.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
They would have to change their mindset. And it would put them in a defensive position fielding attacks of being antisemites - that is a difficult position for a member of the German government. They fall all over themselves to avoid such an accusation. (Mind you: Understanding is not condoning).

And we also shouldn't forget about Putin's trolls on social media.

Also not to forget the reporting of mainstream media on Trump - he was already deep in scandals but they chose to give him plenty of airtime without fact checking.

I know that Germany especially has fallen into the trap that criticising the policies of the Israel would be equivalent to antisemitism. In such a situation, it would be the very last state who walked out.

He wants to stay in power (and live forever). Of course. But 'Investigations' are not working for them so far, the judges have thrown such cases out by the dozen and aren't having any of it.

A convicted felon who had served his prison term. Not someone who desperately tried to stay out of prison. Otherwise, you are of course correct.

I suspect they do not want a successful model of an employee who negotiated a raise in their company - others might try to copy it.

His cabinet of course won't pull the 25th amendment because they would go down with him. And as long as most of the Republican lawmakers fear him or hope to profit, he won't be impeached. My hope is for the midterms.
