    Well, yeah. For those not familiar with the word: Synecdoche

    In everyday speech, we often use the name of the President as a stand-in for the entire executive branch. But we should be mindful of the difference between the person and the regime. One is an old man succumbing to dementia, and the other consists of fascist ideologues using the person as the face and distraction for their schemes. Pay attention to what [REDACTED]-the-regime actually does.
