The problem is that law and the legal "profession" has realized that controlling "democratic excesses" by enforcing the "rule of law" (All persons are to be treated EQUALLY in terms of rights and responsibilities by law) is unprofitable, since it maintains balance of power between individuals which has the effect of keeping the peace, reducing conflict and legal fees. Far better to enforce (All persons are NOT to be treated EQUALLY in terms of rights and responsibilities by law using false pretext X).
The Nazis were a "democratic excess" who legally deemed Jews and others "subhuman". It was a very expensive survival hit to civilization to deal with them, but they were brought down by honest "rule of law", now rationalized away:

Since the balance of power between prey (we, the people) and predators (system connected perps) has been upset by absence of honest law, Pandoras box of "war of all, against all" has been re-opened by "rule of corrupt, parochial man", destroyer of civilizations, for all of history. The grim reaper of "Mathematics Of Rule" proves where this folly leads:
