Perhaps at some point enough people will wake up and realize we're well beyond a “constitutional crisis” and actually living through a civilization crisis.

For all intents and purposes this current "constitutional crisis" appears unresolvable due to the nature of the structures intended by the constitution and all that has come after.

If you can't save it by adhering to it, when one player remains steadfast in ignoring it, then that fabric holding things together has frayed beyond repair.

@WarnerCrocker we need a new constitution, but we can’t get that while fascists are seen as legitimate

@WarnerCrocker At this point the constitutional crisis has already proceeded into calamity. (The difference between a crisis and a calamity is that a crisis can be managed while the only thing to do in a calamity is run while you still can.)
At some point the civilizational crisis will proceed to the calamity stage too.

@janxdevil I'm not sure a calamity can exist without a civilization to define it as such. Otherwise it's just nature having her way.
