    Kind of a good point, you pretty much have to be a chud to be accepted on a jury of "peers." I'd be terrified of being judged by twelve random dipshits from the city I live in, let alone the city I'm from. They're only supposed to take people that are like, legal theory blank slates, so to speak; but, of course, in Amerikka :amerikkka:, a human being who has so little awareness that two lawyers call them neutral is going to be extremely well-trained at dehumanizing their fellow citizens.

        I wonder if it's possible to be so publicly based for an entire trial that they just sort of let you go for reason of insanity. Like just communist shitposting, loudly, at every single party in the court room, including: your lawyers, the prosecutors, the judge, the jury, the sketch artist, your mom, those dudes that walked into the wrong room while looking to register to vote because the state makes them do that in person at the county courthouse as a form of folk voter repression and now it's too awkward for them to leave in the middle of your rant about posadism: y'know, everyone.

          Ranting about communism being good probably makes them more likely to convict you

          Posting about an ongoing trial as a juror would be illegal. Contempt of court or something. You'd get kicked and they'd use an alternate.
