    Well in the past people who would like that ended up getting assassinated. So I guess there is a mechanism to deal with them.

    Remember of course sometimes the bad guys do win.

    History does not provide us with a defense against them because history is not a record of what happened, it’s a record of what people want to record. Anytime someone managed to actually admit their mistakes it was just written down as “and lo did the bad guy see the era of their ways. The end, aren’t we wonderful”, because why would it be written any other way, our view won we were clearly correct from the beginning.
