The concept of "lawfare"- at least as *certain Western democracies"* use it against colonized and 'underclass' nations/peoples- sounds like some elitist, bourgeois bullshit, ngl. "You guys are USING THE LAW against us in a way we think is unfair" piss off
What other choice do they have, in most of these cases, esp. when you *crush them under the "weight of your boot", so to speak, esp. with countless occupations, imperialism, unfair trade agreements/deals, etc.??
"How DARE you use the law to level the playing field"
wtf
sounds like sour grapes to me disguised as "legitimate political discourse"
Like... would you RATHER they get violent?
Besides... do lawyers INSIDE those "Western democracies" not, at times, USE THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM UNFAIRLY?? Do COPS and judges "not" take advantage their fair share? What is this "crying and moaning" when your "enemies", geopolitically, "use law against us", all of a sudden? ...it's so absurd and hypocritical
