  • norms-pilled just means the a focus on the forms of democracy to a neglect of the material situation–the constitutional/legal violations of jackson and trump are the same, but the latter has much more actual power.

    but yes jackson planted the seeds, I think some of those fascists doing unitary executive theory use his example.

    nullification is interesting because the prevailing interpretation is that Jackson avoided a civil war by his conduct, and whatever the man actually thought he was constrained by a political reality of the feds being weaker than states. Could 2,000 regulars have taken Charleston? yeah. could those 2,000 defeat NC, GA, whoever else decided the response to SC was an overreach? Mind the North did not like Jackson so much as Lincoln.

    His naval solution to the Nullification, and the gracious settlement after was a very adept way to handle it while avoiding escalation
