However, what fascinates me are civilian reactions to a trial. They clearly and terribly demonstrate that we need to bring back civics education to classrooms.
Yeah, yeah. I know why the school boards are eliminating civics classes. It's the same reason the southern states made it illegal to educate slaves. Knowledge is power.
On the other side is deliberate, willful ignorance. The folks who don't bother to research the law or the situation and literally make up shit.
You see, something similar happened to DH a couple of weeks ago. Two of his sisters sent him texts. One blatantly asked him to do something illegal as the executor of their father's estate. The other one accused him of mismanaging the estate and gave him a list of demands that either have nothing to do with his role as executor or would cost the estate more money than necessary.
Now, I don't believe either sister came up with these ideas on their own. I'm pretty sure I know who the instigator is. Proving it is the problem because the sisters will lie to protect this person and to hide their shame at being manipulated.
Does any of this sound familiar?
Here's the thing--at a certain point, people get tired of being used. The point is different for everyone, but when it is reached by the majority (in the in-laws' case, the other three siblings), the manipulator no longer has any power.
Even die-hard MAGAs have their limit as shown by the juror in New York who only looked to Truth Social for his news.
