@thendrix "climate diplomat". There's a money-laundering title if I've ever heard one.

We don't need a purge, we need justice. And not justice by their disingenuous Orwellian usage of the term. My ideal scenario is that the public needs to be shown their crimes in excruciating detail until their stomachs turn (a lot of this evil is protected by the "too horrible to be true" and "I don't want to think about it" psychology). They need to be prosecuted thoroughly and publicly, with lower-level grunts being given plea-bargains to sell out the mid- and high-levels. No plea-bargains for mid- and high-levels. Fair public trials. Everything by the book. No fake evidence or intentional bullshit that causes mistrials or doubt in the public consciousness. Justice.

I personally don't believe in the death penalty, but depending on laws and jurisdiction, it might apply. No lynch-mobbing, no guillotines, no revenge. Only justice.

The key things are showing the public until they can't deny it or the extent of it anymore, and discovery and verification of evidence (no "poison-pill" planted fake evidence that later gets disproven and taints the rest). If those happen, everything else will flow. Similar to how the country's problems will suddenly be really easy to solve, once bad actors who benefit from problems being unsolvable are removed.
