"rule of law" is meant as the opposite of "rule of men," as if laws somehow make themselves without any personal or institutional bias. all laws are made by men. all men have biases, interests, and preferences. no laws made by men will be completely free from the biases, interests, and preferences of the men writing the laws. we have seen how the authorities can quickly organize a national manhunt for an unknown shooter and arrest him. we have also seen how authorities cannot seem to find any of the known persons on jeffrey epstein's list. it's almost like the authorities exist to protect the interests of the wealthy elite while keeping the common folk in line.
