       govern so incompetently you create a real emergency, then assume extraordinary powers by declaring a state of emergency.

       @interfluidity this is what they all do! This is why "state of emergency" declarations need a certain amount of control by other branches of government...sadly Congress is even less assertive here than in Venezuela.https://www.industrias.gob.ve/2025/04/asamblea-nacional-aprueba-decreto-de-emergencia-economica-un-paso-decisivo-para-blindar-los-sectores-productivos-del-pais/

       @resl i agree. we in fact should welcome, construct, reinforce a multipolar world, but not one in which the poles are competing vicious powerseeking kleptocracies. it’s time to rescue liberal internationalism from its collapse into neoconservatism. https://zirk.us/@interfluidity/114347921966154291
