at the eve of the modern period the only European nations which had assumed their modern form were Portugal, England, and France. Germany, Italy, and Spain were divided, Scandinavia, the Baltic, and Eastern Europe still had its medieval profile, and the Balkans were under the rule of the Turks.

No, he doesn't. Randy E. Barnett and Ilan Wurman should be disbarred and removed from their positions for even saying this. There should be no mercy for people articulating this made up bullshit in the legal profession. They are enablers of fascism no different than the lawyers of the Nazi regime.

just when we need to divert this Titanic a good 90° to avoid disaster, the "legitimate" officers want to make a 3° course correction while a group of criminal malcontents have seized control of the bridge and are going full speed towards the iceberg.

Americans need to grapple with the knowledge that the rest of the world has always known they were a monster. They are just waking up to it though it has been in their power to change course for a long time

1. hyperconsumption
2. a world population still growing by 66-89m net new people/yr
3. mindsets of entitlement, competition & separation from Nature/each other.

i used to go AA - most people only take action AFTER their lives are destroyed by liver disease, divorce, lost jobs, and

I am convinced the same applies to civic issues. most people will only change their political opinions after disaster repeatedly happens - if even then.
