In this episode…

When the scales of justice are swapped for movable goalposts, absurdity ceases to be theatre and becomes law.

From Caesars in togas to judges in wigs, history proves being a frocked feller is no crime, yet free speech now stands in the dock.

In these fushigi times, defending satire and plain speech is no longer comedy but it is civilisation’s closing argument.
