Just read the article that’s not what’s happening
They can already throw you in jail if they want the problem is it’s actually hard to keep you there if you have a lawyer and it’s not legitimate
They want to bring more cases to prosecution not just temporarily arrest people because they’re taking over society not dissolving it
Something something all authority is born at the end of a gun.
"A lawyer says this is illegal." They'll deny access to lawyers. They'll ignore lawyers. They'll arrest lawyers. I'm pretty sure they've done all three at least once by now. Once killing people becomes open policy and not something they have to hide and mask through innuendo, they'll kill lawyers, too.
They are the ones with the guns and the audacity to use them, so they have the power of action while we throw paper at them.
You're right, subsume is probably a better word, but they cannot do that without utterly invalidating the systems that exist now that are in their way. And they are doing that through audaciously and violently ignoring them, so don't be surprised when they do the same to the Western concept of criminal justice.
