      We should accept the wisdom & legitimacy of the American system & the outcomes of elections. It took Trump for progressives to, very briefly & momentarily, see the value of this essential value.https://twitter.com/ezraklein/status/1351972009173893123 …

      I think @jonathanchait gets this right. The "unity" Joe Biden talks about, given his emphasis on disagreement as part of democracy, isn't the absence of division. It's about the way we argue, and what we do when we lose. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/biden-inaugural-address-end-this-uncivil-war-unity-possible.html …

      Mine is that we have strong antibodies to threats to the American system, but only to those that come from the right.https://twitter.com/DrewHolden360/status/1351970373559058432 …

      My hot take is that what the last four years has proven is that our democracy isn’t actually fragile and is in fact substantially more sturdy and resilient than most of us thought.

          This. We only know how to resist *individualistic* forms of authoritarianism. But hardly anyone can even recognize the collective kind.

          Oh good grief, the GOP has been pulling the center further and further to the right for years. Any other western nation, a Biden presidency would be center right, but sure the right has really be pushed down and disadvantaged

          The right just appointed hundreds of federal judges and 3/9 lifetime Supreme Court justices.... what are you possibly complaining about?

          I’m inclined to agree. I think of them like white blood cells. Sometimes they overreact to potential threats. But on the whole it seems like they’ve done what they were supposed to do across four chaotic years.
