Eric Weinstein refers to ā'''Loyal Opposition'''ā as essential to democracy: opposing power while remaining committed to shared principles and institutional legitimacy. He argues that the U.S. currently lacks such opposition because both major parties have tolerated extremist factions. Weinstein positions himself as a member of the loyal opposition within his own political sphereācriticizing excesses and revolutionary impulses while maintaining allegiance to democratic norms like merit, fairness, and free speech. He calls for political actors to resist their own sideās extremism, defend institutional legitimacy, and restore mutual respect necessary for a functioning democratic order. | |||
