Archaic when it comes to doing what it can to protect our most vulnerable in society and our most vulnerable are honestly the people who aren't as protected by the law, which includes LGBTQ plus community, trans community, women, women of color, children.
to the amount of times that laws just completely leave massive holes open for kids to be abused by the system or to be left out or to be um just subject to the worst things both in you know juvenile detention centers and now like even more it even more vulnerable
Yeah, exactly.
And it's because, I mean, I'm like, look at who set this system up.
Look at who's been in power in the legal field for the last hundred million years.
White men, white men, white men.
And even though right now today there are more women in this field than there are men, all of the people who are in power are the white men.
It doesn't matter.
You know what I mean?
I'm like, yeah, being a woman, I see women everywhere, but we're all subject to the same misogyny because the people who are...
you know determining our paychecks who make decisions yeah we're the ones having to convince those fucking fucking assholes yeah of the personhood and the existence of people who don't look like them yep and that's difficult yeah sometimes when you're fighting prejudice it's fighting ghosts really literally yeah you're like i want to change the system but i need to get inside of it and how can i get in when it's impenetrable exactly you know what it kind of equates to sometimes
when it comes to because we're like in the legal field it's like politicians lawyers die in that chair bitch they do not retire they do not quit i went for a man who was 90 years old practicing in court we do not take licenses away oh no baby we let you we let you pull up like you pass the bar like during prohibition like that shit's fucking wild if father time is assigned to me
hey i'm oh yeah no you're hey i'll defend myself in court um he might keel over any second no 100 he's gonna be like oh she's free they freed her shit he's literally well i might not be alive by the end of this trial no exactly i kid you not exactly and they smell exactly like you think and so
When you know, like, a lot of times, right, you're... Some of them, honestly, some of them are great.
Like, I've met a lot of men who are in this field who are the white male old demographic who are honestly not, like, necessarily the good ones because all of them should be the good ones, but they...
have absolutely been pivotal in making sure that there's a door open.
But sometimes they're just so old that it's honestly like working with a Make-A-Wish kid.
And I mean that in the most respectful way of, look, if you're at Disneyland and you see a Make-A-Wish kid and they are a terror, right?
Yeah.
They are screaming, yelling, crying in line, like fisting people, punching people, whatever.
