    I assume, that the word "#republican" has different meanings depending on context.

    "#Republicanism is a political ideology that promotes the republican system of #government, in which #sovereignty resides in the people and their elected representatives, as opposed to hereditary #monarchy or other forms of absolute personal power."

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic

    It's not related to any specific political party of the same name 😉

  6. The three most interesting paragraphs from this story, IMO:

    "The Stay Free Alberta petitioners say they have collected 301,620 signatures, well over the 178,000 threshold that can prompt the province to consider a referendum question. "

    "Gordon McClure, chief electoral officer, has said that [the verification] process will now also include a search for fake names seeded in copies of voter lists — designed as a mechanism to prove if improper use of the electoral list has been used.”

    "A pro-unity ‘Forever Canadian’ petition had 404,293 signatures verified in December. That citizen initiative wants the government to consider making it official policy for Alberta to remain a part of Canada.”

  7. Is #Trump REALLY claiming that #Jesus image was intended to show him as a "doctor"? Who is he trying to kid? He's upset #Catholics, by verbally attacking Pope Leo XIV, & his #blasphemy & #idolatry risk his support from all genuine #Christians. Did he ever have ANY support from genuine Christians, as HE isn't #Christian, #MAGA #Republicanism isn't, & "white Christian #nationalism" isn't?

    Not me 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Pro-top: Bostonian #republicanism was - and has always been - radical in thought, creed and deed.

  13. @tarheel

    This is an oblique way of saying “we can’t be anti-fascist”, without actually articulating the #FirstPrinciples and #CoreValues they do stand for, such as #republicanism.

    Weak sauce.

  14. When the Roman Republic was in its final century, civil wars were common, and so were proscriptions.

    Words mean things.

    I don’t make the rules.

  21. I have a chapter forthcoming on (anti)democracy in the writings of Algernon Sidney (1623-1683) in a volume entitled "Republicanism and Democracy: Close Friends?" (Springer, 2022 or 2023). I look forward to receiving my copy & to reading the finalised chapters of all my co-contributors. I'll post the contents when I can! link.springer.com/book/9783031 @histodons @intellectualhistory @politicaltheory #republicanism #AlgernonSidney #democracy #politicalthought #histodons
