Seriously. Authoritarian lawfare? You mean against the guy who literally tried to steal the last election?

  > Authoritarian lawfare? You mean against the guy who literally tried to steal the last election? Who are you responding to? OP referred to Biden as a purveyor of authoritarian lawfare. Which, given the term is flexibly defined, is both true for everyone and always falsifiable. It's a stupid statement that follows an otherwise mostly thougtful comment. (Negating the "obviously...Musk...is a good actor" bit, but I'm not here to shit on faith.)

    Sorry, I was doubling down and responding to blackeyeblitzar's comment. When people refer to Biden enacting "lawfare," it's frequently a right wing talking point used to discredit Jack Smith's cases against Trump.

  I don’t think that anyone who says following up on a coup attempt and constant attempts to overturn a presidential election as “law fare” is going to be open to your arguments. All one merely has to look at how many people around T went to jail for him, and somehow he managed to offload responsibility to them.
