| Fig. 1 The Supreme Long Con |
The radical changes in the activist U.S. Supreme Court came as a surprise to those entranced by The "It Can't Happen Here" Trance.
Which, as regular readers know, excludes Dredd Blog (Here Come De Conservative Judges-2009, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17-2025).
The link at Fig. 1 points out that "As a young attorney in the Reagan administration, he aimed to destroy the Voting Rights Act and undermine democracy."
An attempt to set forth a remedy to the aforesaid it can't happen here trance has been contemplated (Choose Your Trances Carefully, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8):
"One has to be as careful as possible when choosing a cultural trance to live by.
Assuming, of course, that a choice is even available, is economical, and is worthy of contemplation.
Trances come in all shapes and sizes, are commercially traded on the stock market and commodity exchanges, and are even put on sale from time to time (some of those sales occasionally being fire sales).
Some trances, such as the "good world war" trance, are very difficult to sell on the open market (so, you may have to go over to the black market for that particular trance), yet other trances are "free" and abundant, especially the fear induced trances, such as the fading 911 trance or the recent Obola trance (Obola: Art Thou Dying Properly?)."
(Choose Your Trances Carefully, 2014). Note that there are more trances than you might think.
And also note that choosing a harmless trance has to end with a more accurate result than the "When We Fight We Win" trance of a recent election cycle.
