Alan Dershowitz is a major-league asshole [View all]

[cthulu2016]

Just sayin'

It has been painful to watch the looooong ongoing process, since he used to be a major civil libertarian. (circa late-1970s)

Now on TV flogging the "it isn't civil disobedience if you don't turn yourself in" line... the true mark of the modern authoritarian dimwit.

(If the difference (sic) between being a criminal and being engaged in civil disobedience is that you go to jail in both cases, it is an odd sort of distinction to obsess over. What is really in play is people trying to square their youthful support of dissent with their contemporary state of being an asshole... which requires a lot of fancy footwork.)
