legalism, n.All

Legalism (n.) before ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the Baal Shem had shrunk every human problem into a legal one.

Legalism (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠wrong in disguise: a too subtle reading of the right turns fraudulent, hence the saying that the extreme of right is the extreme of wrong.
