Yeah, but it’s also more accurate to how we’re crumbling. The republic died to social divisions and demagogues eventually done in by a populist who sought nothing but his own power and was too comfortable breaking the rules to advance himself.

Now I will acknowledge the difference here, Caesar seemed to actually improve the lives of the Roman proletarii whereas Trump doesn’t. Because our collapse is in many ways closer to the fall of the Weimar Republic when it comes to the details.

Though we also must acknowledge that the Roman republic was also an empire. Republics don’t like acknowledging when we’re empires.

In no way is it ‘my case’, but you’re not wrong, perhaps unfortunately, simply an allegory to a famous book.
