Remember, there's an actual purpose for why people say "outlandish" things like getting rid of due process. It shifts the Overton Window.
That's the range of "acceptable" beliefs held by society. First a few people say "crazy" things but eventually even the "normal" people propose those ideas.

Hi, we are an alternative to Amazon-owned Audible 👋🏻 With us, you select the independent bookshop you want to support (we have 3,000+ partners across the globe), and we share profits from your purchase with them.

We're also employee-owned and a registered Social Purpose Corporation.

Gah, those brain worms do get stuck! Currently trying to complete a perfectly normal grocery store run while "For pity's sake, Christine say no, don't throw your life away for my sake" is blaring in my head. Pardon me if I dramatically wave my arms at some point. #phantomoftheopera

Okay, I'll take ownership of my dorkiness: I'm standing in line to buy my teen her own copy of the MLA Handbook and thinking to myself "what a fun book! She's so lucky she gets to make bibliographies!"

When Shakespeare was a prophet: "To the [US government] assemble now, from every region, apes of idleness. Neighbor... purge you of your scum. Have you a ruffian that will swear, drink, dance, revel the night, rob, murder, and commit the oldest sins the newest kind of ways? 1/2
