Informal excoriation used to be the glue that holds a nation with limited government together.
I can’t emphasize the importance of this. Earlier I had concluded that the only solution to our societal imbalance was official excoriation [fair debate rules/super majority support to prevent tyrannical misuse] via a constitutional amendment. But if the NFL yields to this, perhaps we can slowly steer back without one?
Trump’s use of ridicule is another form of excoriation to bring the required level of conformity for a society to properly function freely.
