    This kinda feels like a “Just Following Orders” point.

    If I were asked to do something as unethical as promote slavery or participate in a process that accomplished that, I’d refuse and resign.

    On one hand, I understand that this kind of behavior is wildly common in the American justice system and far more people than just Harris are complicit in these sorts of abject horrors. She’s not special for this.

    But on the other, I still think it requires a certain lack of morality and contempt for humanity to be a willing participant in it.

      Again, she didn’t do what you are claiming she did. The accusations are that her coworkers did. I don’t know why you are ignoring this point.
