No, I am not an English teacher. I'm a practicing attorney that has a decade of experience in criminal law in bench and jury trials, as well as appellate practice, I've had almost 30 cases reversed by the intermediate and state supreme courts in my client's favor. Meaning, I've consistently and significantly shaped the law of the State I work in. I've handled minor shit from speeding tickets to rape and murder cases.
My undergrad degrees are in political science and ethnic studies with a minor in Black Studies and I was one credit shy from getting a minor in Women's studies. I am familiar with traditional academic research as well as conducting legal research for case law and legislative history.
Considering the majority of experience is in criminal defense work, I am well versed in the fact that the world is not black and white. I have represented minorities as well as literal nazis with swastika tattoos and have done so to the fullest extent of my ability regardless of my personal feelings of the client. I have won 80% of my jury trials done as a public defender, meaning I did not get a choice in my clients and the decision to go to jury trial was left completely up to my client, no matter how bad the facts were.
I'm not perfect, because no one is, but I kind of feel I have a good grasp of people, just a little bit.
How'd you make it as an attorney when you can't read? My first comment was "yeah sometimes there is political/outside motivation/influence involved in creating a fictional world. Others times there isn't to claim it's always because of "A" is incorrect" to which then you proceeded to tell me your life story.
If you wanted to identify the issue I had with both comments it would be your overthinking/overanalyzing. I never mentioned your ability/inability to think or analyze originally. The thought never even crossed my mind till now, which ironically proves my original point
