Wired takes a sober but meaningful look at what's happening from the context of 20th century history. I learned some new terminology there, "electoral autocracy" which is what they're calling most modern dictatorships that continue having mock but ineffectual elections.

They exported so much democracy that they have not any left

Not surprising we need to completely clean house

That seems unexpectedly long... /j

My favorite bullshit from the MAGAs had been "this is not a democracy, it's a republic".

It used to be both, now it aspires to be neither.

We already did. Shit's done unless there's an uprising. The Russian tail being present in every swing state has me convinced it was hacked. They aren't going to give it back. Elon, Thiel, and Putin stole it, and we are now a vassal state of Russia and tech billionaires. Even if an audit proves it was stolen, I don't even know if there's a way to go back. Trump will just yell fake news, refuse to leave, and the LEOs and Military will probably take his side. We are fucked.
