The end of the anonymous web is nigh. We may not like it, but it’s probably the only way. We used to joke in the 90s about requiring an internet driver’s license before allowing people on Usenet. It might actually be happening.

Justifying. Basically you already have a behaviour in mind, but you need an excuse to execute on that behaviour.

There are mechanisms. See 25th Amendment. But it’s not useful: 2/3 of both houses must agree with the incompetency ruling of cabinet, which consists VP plus 50% + 1 of the cabinet. Since his cabinet is stacked by his lackeys, the only way this could occur is if Vance is performing a coup. Still need 2/3 of each house, which is harder to get than impeachment!

Hypothetically: Lemmy instances where every user has to have physically met an admin and proved that they’re real or something. And they’ll only federate to other instances following the same rules.
It’ll almost be like the early 90s dialup BBS small communities, with FIDOnet ;)
