After reading this article read up on the constitutional flaws in the Weimar Republic. It is fascinating to see how a country can be ultimately brought down by its own legal structure if it's not designed well.

I read an article last week from a fscking dean of law from Berkeley arguing that we should hold a constitutional convention so we could sneak in an abolition of the constitution. I fear we are in a world where we’re are simply going to be rotating dictators every 4-8 years unless power is reclaimed from government.
