Yes, this is all very complicated. I am learning that much of our system is illegal, and that complexity is designed such that people cannot easily fight the system.
But all that being said, I still want to see someone who armed with this knowledge, has prevailed over that system.
The law is what the guy with the power says it is.
The law is what the guy with the power says it is.
I understand the tendency to think that way. Honestly, it was a major hurdle to get over, but it was learning about the very foundations of law and how the institution itself comes directly from the Bible, starting with the Magna Carta, Declaration of Independence, etc, and then learning about how exactly it got corrupted along the way, that I realized there is an order to the madness.
I was learning all this at the same time Trump was in office, and that's when I started to pay attention to his actions and could see what he was doing, i.e. doing everything by the book, because at the end of the day, the power is with the People, and he knows something and I think he is demonstrating how to fight corruption by exposing it publicly.
It is not the institution of law itself that is corrupt, it's the people within the institution that sell out and fail to honor their oath.
