Want to be really clear about this:
(1) the golden age of law as a constraint on power is over
(2) they are, in fact, just going to do what they want
AND
(3) that is _why_ it’s critical to keep fighting for the rule of law.

Yeah. I am very much on the verge of just blocking people who say "meh, the rule of law no longer matters" or "they're just going to do what they want" etc.
They can try, but accepting it as given, means giving up.
Stop trying to make everyone give up fighting for basic rights.

So giving up on the rule of law means nothing more than accepting fascism.
