the only truth to the headline is the increasingly part - and it’s because of articles like this.

Congress shall make no law

i think a lot of people misunderstand positive vs negative rights. the US Constitution doesn’t grant rights. the Declaration of Independence declared all are endowed with rights by a creator. that is the origin of our rights - inalienable. the Constitution doesn’t grant anything. it establishes the structure of a federal government, and the amendments to that guarantee what already exists in the Declaration. it limits power of an authority over a person.

a very divisive example is arms. the Constitution doesn’t grant americans the right to keep and bear arms. it limits the government from prohibiting such.

of course…this is the intent not necessarily the reality

edit:
also the lack of critical thinking of this argument is so astounding i didn’t even notice it at first…no freedom from religion…which…one? which version of that one…? the constitution - which compels nothing but the government - can…compel americans to all be…uh - jehovah’s witnesses? mormons? sunni? bahai?

that’s uhhh…my point? sort of. the constitution requires no ID. and in general no federal, state, county, or municipal authority provides ID. which makes any requirements unconstitutional.

you’re right. if i don’t make enough income to need to file taxes, i shouldn’t be allowed to vote

it’s an anthology series, which, even if people understood before getting into it, could understandably be difficult to really separate oneself while viewing. think about another creator you like. Nolan, Spielberg, whatever. which of their works do you like best? does memento deserve criticism just because you liked interstellar more? or dunkirk? critique for sure, but that’s just to continue to refine the origin of your personal enjoyment of each piece of work. they are by definition of anthology different works.

s1 is masterful. s2 is still as good as the best of shows made these days. same with s3. and looking forward to s4.

and really agree with the VV comment. was this guy for real or just a try hard? for me it’s just fine when an actor’s performance matches their character regardless of if it’s genuinely good or…their ability fits the character traits. still entertainment to me.

linking this, but inviting challenges to it knowing there are numerous counterexamples of instability but still 219 years is a long time

english breakfast:

protein ham
protein bacon
protein sausage
protein eggs
protein beans
protein/garbage blood sausage

garbage mushrooms
garbage tomato

starch hash browns
starch toast

…but the beans make it superior to anything americans do. seriously beans with breakfast wtf are americans doing wrong. missing beans that’s what

but seriously…choose a protein or two and ditch the fucking mushrooms jfc wtf is wrong with people it’s not an animal or a plant its a fungus i don’t want to eat the stuff that grows at the base of your toilet.

ditch the mushrooms and it looks delicious. and add more beans.

am i living in a parallel universe ?

…sounds like it

i’m sorry but i have to be pedantic here. it’s not how you get your revenue it’s the good or service you provide.

magazines are not ad companies. TV channels are not ad companies. the source of your revenue does not make you a company in a sector of that source.

doesn’t it already?

just off the top of my head:

death penalty. makes sense that societies would be better off if anyone guilty of a capital offense be immediately executed.

eugenics. humanity definitely (in a vacuum) would be better off if undesirable conditions were removed from the gene pool (including common diseases or even…psychopathy etc)

vivisection…

but we’re humans. so we don’t just go with the straight science because we know (i mean…i wish we were more consistent) we cannot be trusted as much as the science.

i want to make it clear that this isn’t in disagreement with the article

wait was it nesisary or nesusary.

nesesary? nesasary? nesysary?

If you wait until someone is about to die

yeah, if you push someone out of the way of a vehicle, you could say (accurately) that they were about to die but now they’re right as rain. but when someone is about to die because of an ever increasingly worsening medical scenario that unfolded predictably (that’s a big part of it - the medical knowledge we possess being able to prevent the condition)… it’s not like being on death’s door will suddenly mean you’re back to normal without great effort, cost, suffering, and risk.

imagine applying that to any other medical condition “yeah your head hurts / it’s difficult to breathe / your toe is green / etc, but you aren’t about to die yet. come back when you’re brought in an ambulance”

not disagreeing with your first paragraph, but sort of adding that it’s not a desire to control women’s bodies - it’s a desire to control everything. the society they want requires a “traditional nuclear family” run by a patriarch. a woman’s body is one part of this and is the means not the end.

i am disagreeing with your second paragraph as it was the ghoul in the senate who placed 3 fascists on the supreme court.

ass so fat that you could see it from the front

have you tried this new air fryer chicken? it’s so good, but instead of an air fryer, you use oil.
