    Okay, lemme elaborate then:

    When racist, sexist, ageist, ableist, bigoted, fascist, everyone is a target.

      Similarly this seems like it would explain literally any bad judgement ever. In that sense it’s a non-answer, similar to the non-answer of the religious - “god did it.” An answer that explains everything explains nothing.

      In this particular case, a judge with fascist tendencies would, surely, be minded to hoard the power they do have, rather than abdicate it, even to a body that, for the time being, agrees with them. Right? That was exactly the thing which I said was bizarre. So in order for your elaboration to elaborate, you need to be able to say why it’s the bigoted tendency which wins over the fascist tendency.
