Politicians make laws on the basis of "I'll never be in that situation". But then a son or daughter comes out as LGBTQ+ and all of a sudden laws need to change. A daughter has been raped and all of a sudden laws need to change. They don't make laws to help us. They make laws to control us and sweep away things they don't like.
See: Dick Cheney.
Where's the law to sweep him away?
I'm sure there's plenty, the trick is getting someone to enforce them.
A daughter has been raped and all of a sudden laws need to change.
Nah, they can afford to fly their daughters out.

It's almost akin to a sort of brain damage or disorder, I'm not qualified enough to be able to explain what occurs in the brain structurally for this to happen; only that when they're grimacing for getting convicted after they've murdered 40 people (or millions, if it's an oil exec, for example) and wondering why that's happening, you carefully and patiently explain to them that's only part of what they've inflicted upon others and society writ large.
It doesn't create a "just" or even sane society philosophically speaking, and the legislative process has been almost completely subverted by that segment of the population as you'd pointed out, specifically to be dysfunctional.
Maybe we ought to install more mirrors in the legislative branches
And what about that politician whose VHS rental history got leaked to the whole world?
