- mmastrac 1y agoCreating a constitutional crisis by digitally memory-holing the existing constitution is an interesting approach. I don't recall any regimes attempting this in the past.
- tptacek 1y agoJust noting for posterity that on August 6 2025 people believed you could create a "constitutional crisis" by removing pages from the LOC's online annotated constitution. You all get that we have the original handwritten constitution, right?
- mmastrac 1y agoIf you were living in a country with a strong rule of law that wasn't currently in a constitutional crisis, I'd agree. Yeah, this is likely an accident or mistake, but it's also one of the first steps that someone would take if they wanted to dismantle the existing structure. If this were ten years ago I'd agree. Given today's climate, I'd say wait and see what happens.
