Why does the rule of law seem to consist of a bunch of laws? Shouldn't it be a single general rule like "Don't make laws on an empty stomach"?

It actually comes from “rule of lawmen”, which means that the state is controlled by lawyers.

Thanks for that valuable information.

Now I have ammo to dismiss the so-called “rule of law”.

The REAL rule of law is actually just “have fun”.

Okay, that’s a good one.

What’s the law equivalent then of “Never do your groceries on an empty stomach”?

It’s a loophole for politiicans to avoid responsibility because they’re not themselves when they’re hungry.
