trump is the epitome of evil, a career criminal, convicted felon, cheat, thief, Fascist, pathological liar, insurrectionist, malignant narcissist, misogynist, psychotic sociopath, racist, rapist, traitor and murderer. Nuremberg trials, Lustration!

Wo steht, das Aufarbeitung eine Lustration vollziehen muss? Und natürlich wurden Gesetze geschaffen, die das nicht mehr erlauben sollten, allen voran das GG.
Aufarbeitung heißt nicht einfach alles austauschen, sondern sich der Problematik der Vergangenheit bewusst werden und Konsequenzen ziehen.

It’s so much worse in the U.S. than elsewhere, and maybe it’s because our culture doesn’t make those differentiations.
The citizens of most countries read so much more than we do. Just look at this library list for a Russian prison—and Eduard Limonov wasn’t highly educated, he was just well-read.

History has insights to help us understand our situation against MAGATrump:
Poland & Czechoslovakia after 1990 used lustration to isolate & delegitimize Communists. Also Baltic states after 1991. Some of those who did this are still alive.
Less relevant but still useful is West Germany in 1950.

should be instructive for democrats that Magyar is living up to his promise to prosecute Orban officials for corruption and is continuing to poll extremely highly

In transitional justice parlance this is referred to as “lustration”, and is a pretty common tool. It can be very useful if done carefully, but can also cause serious problems if not.

Peter Magyar is currently enacting a Liberal Currents fantasy where he amends the constitution to ban anyone associated with the old regime from ever holding office again and is somehow polling at 68% (he won with 53%) and I’m not saying that’s possible anywhere else but Dems should like, ask him

Lustration is an old idea, hardly a new proposal. It often has unintended consequences (e.g. de-Baathification).

Back to the lustration/truth-and-reconciliation conversation: as for another user's suggestion to call it "the FAFO Commission," I'd say a Full Accounting for Federal Overreach investigatory panel sounds like the bee's knees.
absolutely. this was always my understanding: that a full and accurate accounting, in which the perpetrators admitted to what they had done was worth the price of limited or in some cases even total absolution for some of the offenders.

"Rebuke decisively" is an interesting choice of words. So lustration?

I’m not american, but their two-party system and Supreme Court need to change, and electoral system requires reform as well. Although I live in Russia - here the entire political and security apparatus needs to be swept away and rebuilt from scratch, accompanied by radical lustration and tribunal.

It was a five day scandal when Biden called out racists for being racist, and the NYT just tried to make it a scandal that Mamdani sends press releases to influencers. A successful program of American lustration would include firing the editors of most major national publications.
But this isn't the weird bit.
The weird bit is that NYT, CNN, CBS, and Wash Post etc treat this as if it were still within the ordinary bounds, and not are saying every day that the President is obviously a cream-faced loon.

These only work if the perpetrator side is ready to admit wrongdoing. If they aren’t, punitive measures and/or lustration is required.

I’m 100% for MFA but understand it will take years of investment to deliver
My only ironclad expectation for the first 100’days is a vicious and determined campaign of accountability and lustration

This site will expect the next Dem president to deliver what FDR delivered in four terms but in the first 100 days and if they don’t they’ll call them a fascist.
A non-zero number of folks on Bluesky, for understandable reasons, have put way too much hope in the next Democratic administration in the US, and are brewing themselves up for another existential breakdown in like 2029 or 2030.

I'm not talking about fighting a battle. I'm talking about using the legal power of the state to ruthlessly punish every sniveling worm who is enabling the current period of fascist lawlessness. It's called lustration.
