Pedocon theory has always been dark.

Conservatism says that some people are better than others, and that those others should obey. Social Hierarchies and shit. That appeals to people who want control over others, and pedos most of all.

Once the list gets to a few thousand, those non-SA Republicans can take the place of the current crop until the midterms (for politics). C-suites and academics are permanently replaced.

This is exactly the problem here. Thousands of leadership roles across the country have been replaced with cronies and getting them back out before they've all done real damage is going to take decades to repair. You need wholesale change in the country, not just replacing the guy at the top. You need a new government. Badly.
