It's happened more than once though, right?

I think the big thing we're all worrying about is whether this is a blip, or this is a French-revolution-style turning point. At least, that's where my mind goes. It sounds like you're qualified to help clear it up a bit.

Well last time it happened for such a prolonged period was 1930-1945, so the precedent isn’t great.

I wonder if our attention to politics is what causes it to have such power.

No, that would be the guns. Try blatantly ignoring the legislation of your choice, and any lesser penalties, and you'll get a demonstration.

Maybe you've forgotten in all the stupid pageantry, which is understandable, but at the end of the day that's what it's about: who gets to write the laws.
