    I want to say an episode of Citations Needed mentioned that a lot of the anti-lawyer sentiment originated with the bourgeois pushing for "tort reform" to get rid of "frivolous" lawsuits (like the woman who spilled boiling mcdonald's coffee on her lap and needed skin grafts).

      they also came back to it in Copaganda episodes, there used to be a bunch of Cool Defense Lawyer shows, but they've all been replaced by cops & prosecutors, with defense as villains
