I just went back and reread what I wrote in college about these old fucks and I definitely agreed more with Hart but I like The Penis's PRIMITIVE PRIMATE RITUAL characterization best

I don't like either of those. I'm closer to legal realism in the classical debate (law is the decision of judges). But my own take is that law is a PRIMITIVE PRIMATE RITUAL. It is basically an evolved coordination technology built from Very Old mammalian hominin ape capacities like tribe and coalition management, taboo, blame and ritualized purification. If you need any evidence just look at courtrooms. The robes, the oaths, the seals. When it comes to human social systems I never take philosophical positions, always default to anthropological

huh? no. I think you are thinking it means "law is whatever I politically want it to be". that's not what it is saying. Maybe you are looking at it normatively rather than descriptively? It is just saying that is how law behaves, it isn't actually based on some natural principles OR human made rules. It is ultimately based on human decision.

no you are wrong. and treating realism as if it already contains a political morality is very stupid.
