      They never accepted it for what it was when they did remember. Any calls for her to retire were met with accusations of misogyny and ageism and now they’ve completely enshrined her as a faultless saint.

        Remember walking into a lawyer’s office and they actually had one of those wine bottles with her face on it. Memories of those getting mocked on the old subreddit came to me and I fought so hard not to laugh

          As CTH said, she really was the embodiment of the Democratic Party. She wasn’t beloved for striking down any injust law, or furthering human rights. It was for her dissents. In other words, she lost but she seemed so stylish and cool when she lost.

          Lawyers are a bizarre breed. They know that their whole edifice is a flimsy fiction, but they cannot know that to do their jobs effectively. Deeply strange people, basically as close as exists to magicians and wizards in the real world.
