> Yet this will also be the judicial system of next year. These things seem to stay constant even across civil wars and revolutions.

That's a shame then, because that means we anarchists are correct that it is a lost cause and must be completely dismantled, a process which will probably result in short term suffering for some.

I'm not sure where belief comes into it. The fact is that the judicial system is wildly inconsistent and arbitrary in the USA. That Americans trust it and anarchists (and other leftists) don't just means many people are ignorant of reality. Pursuing further ignorance seems the wrong strategy. Ostrich, head in sand.

Expectations are nothing without action. Unless people acknowledge the reality that the judicial system is unsalvageable, they'll just accept it for what it is.

Or if you want to be a liberal democrat about it (in the actual meaning of those words, not the Americanized versions), you still need to be aware of the system's rot to cut it out. I don't mind if libs take a crack at fixing it but historically they reallllllly prefer not to.

> That's a shame then

No, you want to dismantle the judicial branch, because of their failures, but you also say you're an anarchist, so people hear you and think you are against every kind of judiciary and will oppose you.

Violence will never lead to a better regime. Public opinion does. There might be violence while public opinion reveals itself. Denacification didn't happened by convicting them. It happened by temporarily forcing others into power and THEN raising children, who think differently.

Yes. There is a difference between "The system sucks fundamentally and has for 250 years, so screw it" and "The system is just and should be protected, there just happened to be a lot of idiots in there for the merely 250 years. That's why need to bring back it's glory." The latter might improve things, the former will only cause self-enforcing violence.
