A lot of you have been watching the Fani Willis hearings. Sometimes anecdotal events are more than anecdotal, and instead are symptoms of widespread issues. The Willis matter is indicative of some very important truths: 1. The people leading the fascist witch hunt trials of Trump are criminals. They are the lowest of the low: venal, cunning, conventionally unintelligent people with the ethics of a pack of hyenas. These are literally what we used to refer to as "bad people": immoral liars who use power and the public trust for riches and self-aggrandizement. Trump's biggest crime was exposing the criminals, so they came after him. 2. The Soros-funded DAs are all in place for the express purpose of destroying societal faith and confidence in our justice system. This is deliberate. By destroying justice, more and tyrannical government will be needed for the "common good" to fix what is "wrong." It's a judicial variant of the Cloward-Piven Strategy. Soros saw a back door path to tyranny, and took it. 3. Our "elites" are actually the very worst people our society has to offer. 4. America's law schools turn out a lot of incompetent, unintelligent attorneys. The ABA and the various state bar associations are complicit in the dumbing-down of attorneys and the utter deterioration of what little ethical sensibilities once resided in the legal profession. 5. With a few exceptions, lawyers are human filth. This is because they do not believe in objective truth, and instead believe "truth" is whatever they can convince somebody else to believe, even if the lawyer knows it is objectively untrue. 6. We're screwed unless we figure out a way to turn the ship 180.
@CynicalPublius "3. Our "elites" are actually the very worst people our society has to offer." There is an old word for this. Kakistocracy. Governance by the least qualified.
You lost your argument with this statement" "The people leading the fascist witch hunt trials of Trump are criminals." No one is above the law.
@CynicalPublius Then there are those of us that can't bear to watch this Lizzo-level legal train wreck:
@CynicalPublius @Lenburnt1 Back in the day Fani and lover boy Wade would be disqualified for the mere appearance of impropriety because attorneys were suppose to be held to a higher standard. I guess the appearance of being corrupt is no longer enough.
@CynicalPublius Mainly agreed. But there are attorneys around who are good people.
@CynicalPublius Oregon just got rid of the bar exam, it’s of course racist.
