      He analogizes it to Stasi - after the collapse of East Germany no one tries to get Stasi back together but there is a *massive* difference. Stasi was plausibly the result of conquest and occupation and they reunited with West Germany - which also was conquered and occupied.

      "I served the Soviets, you served the Americans, you were lucky that your overlords were better" No one in the American regime can say anything remotely similar.

      Anyway, go listen to the whole interview - the interviewers are sharp and knowledgeable and Curtis is fantastic and perceptive as always even if (at times) overly hopeful for the virtue of the class of his birth.

      One final point. In other interviews Curtis has talked about how Caesar in victory assumed power and the best thing about it was he wasn't the Imperator of Plebians or Optimates but of Rome. In this interview he mentions a story from the end of Caesar's last military conflict.

      After the defeat of the last of the Optimate forces led by Cato Caesar's men search Cato's tent and find his chest of letters - letters that would reveal who - though feigning support for Caesar - were secretly backing his enemies.

      An opportunity to proscribe those men, seize their wealth and gift it to his followers. Caesar orders those letters burned because, Yarvin explains, he rules Rome now and has no enemies because men bend to power. 5 years Caesar is assassinated by men whose letters he burned.

      Augustus does not act with the same mercy towards the old order. He rules for 40 years and dies of natural causes . . . . . . . (or maybe he was poisoned by his wife but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

      But the question remains if Augustus could have done that if Caesar hadn't first plausibly presented himself as "Emperor of all of Rome." By doing that, anyone who is an enemy of Caesar becomes an enemy of Rome, and Augustus is no longer on a partisan mission when killing them.

      Yes, taking vengeance for his murdered father lends a different nature to the acts - the limitation on the targets prevents a Schelling point of "he's going to get all of us in turn, we should deal with him now" from forming.

      It's difficult to compare to the present without identifying the modern "letter writers"

          Lmao I was not suggesting anything besides that maybe Tru- I mean Caesar needed to be killed in the way he was in order for Bar- I mean Augustus to consolidate power and "clean the slate" in the way that was necessary.
