Well, all of human history would disagree. Hacking leaders up with a mutual understanding of no one wanting to be that guy in the future is like 2/3rds of human progress. The other third was fire, the printing press, and weird al - obviously.
Oh, I agree (particularly about Weird Al). But keep in mind the context: Trump and Musk aren't "leaders", they're cult leaders with particularly rabid followers who *don't* approach the world rationally. Making martyrs of them will only extend our current troubles.

Cathartic, definitely, but not a long term solution.
Martyrs generate an energy that takes generations to dissapate.

No, I want them gone, but in a way that ensures their followers won’t make a religion of them.
