i think at this point we/they’re trying to demand that the justice/criminal-punishment system hold everyone equal before the law because that’s the ideal we were all taught (and it’s in our foundational legal documents) and it’s very nakedly being shown that there is a tiered justice/criminal-punishment system rather than an equal one.

So you’re just demanding the baseline for a normal society.
So why is OP presenting that as something negative, or unworthy of supporting?
