A framework proposing that political systems are elastic—that they can stretch to accommodate new constituencies, new challenges, new crises without breaking into authoritarianism or anarchy. Political Elasticity suggests that healthy polities have appropriate stretch: democratic institutions stretch through elections, through protest, through reform—but have limits. When stretched too far, they break into revolution or repression. Understanding politics requires understanding the elastic limits of systems.
Theory of Political Elasticity "The democracy stretched through protest, through crisis, through change—and held. Political Elasticity says that's the test: can the system stretch to meet the moment without breaking? The question isn't whether politics is stable; it's whether it's elastic enough to survive challenge."

How to fix the political climate

Defend sexual predators. Go on their podcasts and cry like a bitch because you know they are doing what they are doing.

Dragon Age 1 is about racism. The sub plot revolves the oppression of the elves by the humans.
Dragon Age 2 is about colonialism and religious zealotry. Kirkwall takes in the Qunari leader and he tries to take over the country because the fact that they don't adhere to the Qun disgusts him.
Dragon Age 3 is about class warfare. The conflict between the overclass (The Templars) and the underclass (The Mages)
Hym "Dragon Age is ALWAYS political. I don't know what Dragon Age 4 is about but I don't know why you would buy a game that is always political and then expect the points of contention of out modern politic to be absent from the game."

Kill All The Politicians

THAT is why they are doing it. Covid-19 is likely their plan for when they think the public has turned on them. This is them torturing a dissident after they shut down the country to save their own hides, did nothing to protect your kids, stole from me, collapsed the economy. They are not laughing at ME. They are laugh at YOU. Because you are completely powerless to stop them from doing ANYTHING. You can't sway them. Oh hey, look at that! 2 senators just got murdered in their own home... And their names are the same as my parents...
Hym "They responded to the wrong threat. They mounted a campaign to get the rape porn off the internet though didn't they? They shut down the site to stop me from spouting the Anti-Semitism didn't they? And then they CLEARLY colluded with the media to do this to ME didn't they? And here I sit as they try to erase me from history. 'Kill all the politicians' is why I'm sitting here. Not 'I'll murder your kids.' Not 'People are manufacturing the symptoms of schizophrenia around people.' They sat through hundreds of movies and shows about me but they did not lift a single finger to stop what is happening to me. And they won't lift a finger to stop it from happening to you."
