Please see book "There are no accidents". it was a tragedy, and the sort where blame and punishment at an individual level doesn't bring about justice in any meaningful sense, but it was hardly an accident - to predictable to merit that label

your intent is NOT clear.

restricted in your ability to travel is totally normal and not tyranny. Drivers licences are smart, Pilot license make sense, dang are speed limits tyranny?

15 minutes cities is just a concept that all or most of the typically important services citizens need to survive and thrive should be within a 15 minutes of where they live without REQUIRING a car. Modern car dependent culture is the tyranny if anything, and 15 minute cities idea is a response to that

Wrong, especially so in a post-truth information environment

Since this isn't some super serious scenario I am trying to iron out all the details on at least use your imagination a little bit. Re-running the whole election? no, and not what I suggested. Re-running the presidential election, one ballot for a federal office, why do the states need to be involved much at all? I mean if we're doing something drastic like this it isn't like we would still use the electoral college system.

can't is squishy here. Technically you're probably right, but you think Turnip would let that stop him? Biden has about as much power as he is willing to fight for, which is pretty little, obviously, but IMO it tilts more "won't" than "can't"

Because of the way Electoral College works especially, but many other factors contribute to apathetic non-voting behavior. Potential voters feel their vote literally doesn't matter and statistically and practically speaking they are not wrong. Dismissing all of that by saying "non-voters also chose this" outcome is naive and shortsighted and is in my mind taking the side of injustice.

being immune from prosecution not being extra power, is for some a distinction without a difference.

yep, as I said -- "But, hey, a guy can dream."

Never said it was stolen. if you have some counter to this "That between massive disinformation campaigns by enemies both foreign and domestic, voter suppression, as well as many other factors, the will of the people can’t be discerned from our recent presidential election." I'd be interested to hear it.

I admit by that same logic Biden, Trump or other past winners may also be invalid, but that being true of past elections, doesn't make it not true about this one.

Picked up on Wizard of Legend again recently. Curious about 2, but I tend to avoid games in prerelease
