Revocationists

Revocationists are individuals or groups advocating for or actively pursuing the cancellation or annulment of a law, agreement, right, or privilege. They champion the idea of rescinding previous actions, often based on moral, legal, or practical grounds. The central tenet of a revocationist's stance is the belief that something previously established is no longer valid, beneficial, or ethically sound, and thus requires annulment. Their actions range from petitioning and lobbying to direct action aimed at overturning the established order.
