And lawyers wonder why so many people hate them.
What a fucking disaster. :(
We know why we're hated; it's why those of us who strive to exemplify professionalism, ethics, and civility are so angry and depressed. It's why I've been having a career crisis because I always wanted to go into law, but only to do good, and now it feels like there is so little legitimacy to the judicial branch.
Fuck the people who abuse the rule of law until there is none, fuck Trump and his cronies, and fuck SCOTUS for fucking us. Now excuse me, I have to go cry in a corner.
You can always bail. I did. That JD is wildly useful in other industries. Over a third of the people I'm still in contact with from my graduating class aren't actively practicing anymore.
And that's the end game for the shit bags that abuse the system. They don't want a legitimate judicial system. It's now about how can they gain the most money and power.
