Law is just an abstract idea, someone has to enforce it. If Texas does this and nobody stops them then what is the law?

Hrm.

The law would then be whatever the cops who idol worship the punisher without any understanding of the inherent irony of that deem it to be.

So the law would thus be whatever the most violent and or ironic possible outcome possible outcome is to a situation is what will happen.

Hooray!

Yeah, it would be extremely funny if Putin ends up winning Ukraine because the US utterly implodes in formal civil war.

My plan is to just keep listening to Year Zero on repeat, maybe that will erect a metaironic barrier around me that keeps me safe, like a high Luck stat or something.
