““If we jail Trump, get rid of Maga, end the electoral college, ban voter ID, censor free speech, we’ll save democracy,” says one meme in a QAnon channel on Telegram that depicts Biden in a Nazi uniform with a Hitler mustache”

Under threat of what? The wrong people being in charge? The wrong people are ALWAYS in charge. The labels and speeches mean nothing. The fact of the matter is that power seekers end up with power because decent people won’t stoop to that. Literally a random number generator would pick better politicians.
Even if you did, the random people would be corrupted by power.
The best thing to do would be to divide power as much as possible - instead of having a few very powerful people you have hundreds of times more people with much less power.
How about the logical extreme of that? Anarchy!
