      I’ve not been commenting on Kavanaugh b/c whatever I might add is minimal. Let me be open about one thing. Mitch McConnell’s evil on Merrick Garland may have pushed us to enter the rarest of instances where costs simply had to be returned. And so we unravel. It’s just so sick.pic.twitter.com/lZJhNrGwLy

      I try to be rational about politics but I’m so sickened by the modern Supreme Court confirmation process (Bork, Biden/McConnell, Thomas/Hill, Kavanaugh/Ford, etc....) that I can’t find any rational place to stand. So I think I just had very little to add. We just cocked this up.

      If you are feeling disappointed in me, that’s fair in this case; this is a political/legal/human mess on so many levels that it results in complexes of problems to which I am simply not equal. I‘m just not equipped for this kind of politics. Sorry all.

      Understood. The game is too complicated. Sadly, it still affects those who aren’t playing it.

          But is it adaptive? What utility does this have? How could it improve things? Is this kind of collateral damage toward due process ok(Obvs not the justice system)? What backlash toward free speech from the right could this create? I get a penalty for garland but how is this ok?

          Have to work hard to step back from it because I recognize in most people including myself that many people actually want the fight for what seems fights own sake. We view our lives as dramas that need villains.

          Excellent point. I think we all have that in us and have to work and examine ourselves to recognize it.
