Bad news, it's already been resolved.

Wholly agreed.

The way Disney &co coopted law to pack their coffers is a travesty: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Term_Extension_Act

>the contradiction of "law as something impartial" and "law bends to the whims of power" will need to be resolved

human nature will not change. the best change folks here could make is accepting that.

Everything bends to power, by definition. And laws can’t be impartial because they’re not based in hard science: terms like “murder”, “assault”, “theft”, etc. are ambiguous thus up to interpretation (e.g. is a scam theft? If so, what defines a scam? If “lying”, what’s the difference from “misleading”, or if there’s no difference, what defines “misleading”…)

My best idea for a solution is better education, so people don’t make bad laws then badly enforce them.

"the law" has always only been the whims of the powerful aa a threat of violence against the powerless if they don't follow

The nukes will fall before they give up power.
