Well, I dare say if Trump gets in, there might be a good chance that something different will occur: Israel will be left absolutely free to mass ethnically cleanse the Palestinians from swathes of their current territories. It's not like there aren't already people mooting expulsion of Gazans into Egypt (whether Egypt likes it or not).
It's not going to go anywhere. The article cites Due Process Clause does not secure any substantive rights but that's not the only argument in Obergefell. They keep you all up in arms about this stuff so you're not up in arms about the far more important stuff.
Porn isn't going to "pass" the Miller test.
Which is the same thing that you kept saying about abortion before it was overturned. It's like you've learned nothing. It's the same situation all over again, with the same decision makers, who have already expressed that they feel they have the right to reexamine (read overturn) the law if they wish.
When did I say that? I knew Roe was argued horribly and should be overturned. Roe was something that was just a matter of time to be overturned.
As opposed to right now where...Israel is free to mass ethnically cleanse the Palestinians from swathes of their current territories...
Was hoping one day they'll stop being evil part of the promise? I thought it was just because there's no other choice.
I mean, I'd like to think Democratic voters would like the Democrats to stop being so shit but maybe they like having the Democrats toss them a few crumbs and that's all they want.
Well, not a US citizen, but I support the Dems against the alternative because better things aren't going to eventuate, at least not at the moment.
Israel has, historically, been slowed or constrained by international (specifically US) opinion and pressure. This means that - theoretically - there is something to salvage for a viable Palestinian state in the future. Eventually, a point will come where there is nothing worth salvaging: a handful of crammed, urban open-air prisons, and where a Palestinian's only realistic hope of a better future is emigration. Support for Israel is draining away, and if the dial finally shifts against it in the USA, that's when Israel might finally be forced to back down and the Palestinians get a state. But only if there's anything left to save.
The Democrats "We're the lesser of two Evils" argument didn't work on me in previous years, what in the hell makes you think that stupid-ass argument is going to sway me at all now that the "lesser evil" is that the Democrats will only allow a bit of genocide, as a lil treat to Israel as opposed to the Republicans who might let them...also do genocide?
I don't think it will sway you at all, and I don't really care how you vote.
Let's also not forget that Israel used American bombs to bomb 7 Americans over 3 different strikes and this was not a good enough reason to examine support for Israel.
The Democrats need to convince me and people like me that it's worth voting for them by doing stuff I want them to do and not doing stuff I don't want them to do.
Porn doesn't just pass the Miller test (and consistently has since the test's inception), porn is Constitutionally-protected free speech thanks to Miller v. California and the Miller test specifically. The case was literally about porn, the whole porn, and nothing but the porn.
That's basically what I was saying... I'm not the one concerned porn is gonna get banned here.
Cuz complaining about a plainly stolen election is undoing democracy? I don't think so. But going into the future, I do hope we focus on the future rather than the past. I hear the left/main stream media is today claiming Kamala was never a "border czar". Do you agree?
Absolute horseshit. They couldn't provide substantial evidence for a single damn thing. They whined to high heavens because they lost, made a series of spurious claims they didn't have a shred of evidence for, and then literally argued to get entire states' worth of voters disenfranchised. The Republicans are, without a shadow of a doubt, grotesque hypocrites if they moan about undermining democracy here.
If Trump used violence, deceit and abuse of power to crown himself as an illegitimate president despite losing the election then this would indeed be undoing democracy. Not helping your argument that the only ''proof'' the election was stolen was that....Trump really wanted it to have been stolen.
Not so, lots of other Republican voters really wanted it to be stolen as well. Not to mention every other election they've lost, but this time some of them were more than just talk.
