Do you think that we should stop people from speculating or entertaining these possibilities/scenarios? I wonder why we are so quick to silence and shut down people. It might not even be very long until we're the ones who are designated as crazies discussing similar things and end up being silenced as well even when we might be very justified (think of Hitler being in power. It would be morally righteous to be discussing such things and then planning to bring him and his people down). Thought crime should never be a thing. If people discussing something amongst themsleves leads to some people being radicalized and they do something bad, all we can do is be prepared for it. And trust me when I say that people like Soros and Pelosi have plenty of the means to defend themselves.
