Nah. It’s because justice was subverted and karma came in with steel chair to correct things.
Pardons used to be used (usually) terribly to forgive rich assholes who made large campaign contributions… that was awful and I hate it.
In this case the recipients literally tried to overthrow the government… it’s beyond the fucking pale.
I think that pardons are a terrible tool - if there is injustice that needs correction it should be done within the system so that everyone can benefit. Pardons, in their best use, just correct individual injustices while leaving the unjust system that caused the issue unaffected.
