BLM were Obama/the Left’s SA-Brownshirts or Red Guards. They caused chaos for a distinct political purpose.

Their goal was to eliminate the independence of 3000+ local police and sheriffs and put them under DOJ/FBI control

Notice how no one talks about “defunding” any Fed.gov police?

The police are now here to restrain those who would stop the criminals

No surprise.

When you put criminals in charge, they disarm and arrest the police and law-abiding citizens.

They give their fellow criminals free reign to loot, burn, pillage, assault, rape, plunder and murder.

That was the most depressing analysis I’ve ever read. The worst part is I agreed with most of it.

The Supreme Court in Timbs v. Indiana ruled to prevent this from happening. Unfortunately, Americans like Joesbucks have no problem with political persecution.

In the ruling the following was stipulated.

“Protection against excessive fines has been a constant shield throughout Anglo-American history for good reason: Such fines undermine other liberties. They can be used, e.g., to retaliate against or chill the speech of political enemies. They can be employed, not in service of penal purposes, but as a source of revenue. The historical and logical case for concluding that the Fourteenth Amendment incorporates the Excessive Fines Clause is indeed overwhelming.“

... crime waves ... and the serial prosecutions of former President Trump and other conservatives are not separate events, but the common outcome of a fundamental transformation of the justice system from punishing crime to punishing political opposition.

The 8th Amendment says excessive bail shall not be required nor excessive fines imposed... nor cruel and unusual punishment...

The Soros bimbo has screwed the pooch... it's O-VAR,,,

This isn’t “lawlessness”: it’s a new sort of law based on a different set of values.

Yes, it is, and it has a name: Critical Legal Studies, an arm of the overall Marxian Critical Theory bundle of doctrines. Simplified, it holds that all law is a manifestation of a privileged class exerting political power over an oppressed class. There is no possibility of a legal system built on equal justice for all, contrary to one of the most core beliefs in the American constitutional system.

Here I differ slightly from Greenfield - despite devout protestations to the contrary, there is no adjustment possible in this system, no "punching up" and "punching down"; what is possible is only the change in which classes populate the punchers and the punchees respectively. This is the meaning of the "We're in charge now" mantras - the only thing that changes is the "we", and social justice is in the continuation of oppression, not its elimination.

Yes, this, like most of CT, is profoundly cynical and nihilistic, but it is easily understood (the Left is grossly intellectually lazy, after all) and a very exploitable conduit for the resentment and envy that confer the political power necessary to effect it. The upshot is that there can be no equal justice for all, and that the cycle of oppression is eternal. The people perpetuating this nonsense look evil because they are.
