"think about how smart the average person is, then realize that half the population is dumber than that"
I don't think anyone knows how to fix this in a peaceful manner.
step one is to actually enforce the fucking law. remove any judges who blatantly disregard the law.
inb4 "judges are the law"
judges are not the law, they are interpreters of the law. there's a reason we have tiered judges like the circuit of appeals and the supreme court. judges on a lower tier need to be held accountable when the higher courts invalidate their rulings. if this is done while the Supreme Court is still (mostly) uncompromised, we can avoid the inevitable drastic measures that will come next with this political unrest.
