It is hard to take discussions about mechanisms and paradigms very seriously 
looking at a country that significantly just wants to burn everything down.   
The larger culture war is about whether we will have the possibility of design 
and experiment.   Like in any experiment, unanticipated consequences can occur. 
Beliefs may be falsified along the way.  Coherent design can't occur if every 
citizen  claims to be an expert designer and expects their representatives not 
to plan or negotiate, but merely reactively repeat their raw frustrations and 
urges at louder and louder volume.  That is in effect an anti-design value 
system.
