I certainly agree with both points, but I also think Michael Popok's detailed explanations are worth it. Rhiannon12866 Aug 11 #3
Oh, they're definitely worth it. ancianita Aug 11 #5

Stupid looking headline (and annoying promo) aside, I gotta say this looks like a promising turn … and another reason I like Popok's Legal AF so much.

As usual, all the judge wants is the evidence.

And he actually pitches some good products that I do think about buying. I guess I put it negatively because I almost skipped over the video because of the front photo/headline face of it. Maybe it's YouTube's optimized algorithms that produce these headlines/photos, because they just look too weird and extreme for humans to dream up... anyway, (that small annoyance aside) this court case will be a first in this fight to preserve democracy.
I loved learning that the judge is Justice Steven Breyer's brother.
