Yes, it could happen again.
Foreseeing how it can be avoided is difficult, but then who's good at prescience? It's at least conceivable that a wave of revulsion washes these obstacles away, but I'm not holding my breath.
I'm more hopeful of democracy elsewhere.

From memory, Ozemail was Malcolm Turnbull's $million-making startup with its sale that set him up long-term ... he had investor prescience that was squandered by joining the LNP; should have followed his initial instinct and stuck with Labor.

I'm reminded of the prescience of the movie In Like Flint (1967) in which it is revealed that part of the villains' plan is to replace the President with an actor and James Coburn looks at the camera, says, "An actor? As President!?" and shudders.

Currently watching Foyle’s War. Very good!
Season 2 episode 4 (War Games) casts Laurence Fox as a Nazi sympathiser in wartime Britain. Such a natural!
Filmed back in 2003, long before he became politically active on the far right.
I wonder what qualities the casting directors saw in him 😐?

Thank you for sharing! I posted this back in the summer, I think, when this poem was a selection for @poetsorg.bsky.social Poem-a-Day. My day job is as a chaplain doing bereavement support for a hospice—so her words resonated deeply. Little did I know what prescience of loss they would also contain.
