@kangminlee We gotta upgrade India from subcontinent to full continent, if only to make this particular kind of racism easier.

@ChristianHeiens If it was ever actually an arguable case brought before the court, I don't think anyone but Gorsuch would readily accept the "technically you ratified this 200 years ago" argument.

@ChristianHeiens Probably not "technically pending." The court has never ruled on this sort of thing; the only precedent is the 27th Amendment, which only Congressmen have standing to challenge the validity of.

Perhaps the best path that Democrats would have to “ban gerrymandering” at the Federal level would be to get another 27 states to ratify the Congressional Apportionment Amendment, which would cap each House of Representatives district at 50,000 people. It remains the only amendment that was originally part of the Bill of Rights to not be ratified, and it’s still technically pending before the states for approval or rejection. 50,000 people per district would be akin to having over 6,600 members of the House of Representatives. It would be functionally impossible to gerrymander districts that small, and we’d instead be dealing with an entirely different crisis on our hands.

It's actually very important that ambitious college kids be explicitly told that some prestige careers have low pay *by design* to reserve them for the wealthy, and if you aren't wealthy and want that career you had best believe really hard in it bc you will not be affluent
constans@constans

The tough position to be in is people raised upper middle class, attended a good college, & took a “prestige” media/arts/policy job but whose parents werent rich enough to give them a trust fund or at least pay their rent. They got ahead of what their social class can sustain!

@ChristianHeiens Much of our political animosity can be explained by "Democrats feel entitled to win." They aren't supposed to have to fight for it, dammit, why are you fighting back? That's not in the script. That's cheating!

Criminal policy guy: unions are good, police unions just happen to be bad Transit policy guy: unions are good, the teamsters just happen to be bad School policy guy: unions are good, teachers unions just happen to be bad Maybe these guys should meet!
dandelion georgism 🔰🏗@DolphinMossad

I’ve noticed a habit among my fellow conscientious liberals to take a default position of “unions in general are good, it just so happens that the unions involved in the policy areas I’m well informed about are bad” and never reflect on why that might be the case.

The job of the Supreme Court from 1960 to 2020 was to advance the progressive agenda. Libs have been out of power for 5 minutes and they’re screaming hysterically how there need to be consequences. Go ahead, do it, and then the whole edifice can be torched. Libs have way more to lose on this than they have to gain.
Drew Savicki@DrewSav

Is packing the Supreme Court ideal? No but the conservative majority has refused all offers to rule in a nonpartisan manner. If they're gonna keep making partisan decisions then there need to be consequences. Their job is not to advance Republican policy from the bench.

I’ll admit before yesterday I didn’t know there was a law on the books requiring that states draw special little racial enclaves. Sounds completely psychotic to me.

@akhivae Bigamy has been illegal in the Chinese empire for millenia. Concubinage existed, but only for the top-top-top upper class. There was an intermittent cultural practice of bigamy in the North, but legally it was treated as wife+concubine, not two wives.

Monogamy was not an East Asian norm until the last century. I knew Chinese-Canadian kids, originating from Hong Kong, who told me their grandfather's were polygamous.
Jerr@jerr_rrej

The high races are monogamous. Western Whites and East Asians. We are inherently monogamous, not taught to be this way. arabs and nigs are into harems. Also Whites in africa or who live around arabs start acting like them. White men will become polygamous because they are wiggers.

If we had stricter law, Freeman would be in jail for harassment. If we had less strict law, cops would look the other way as frat boys convinced Freeman to mind his own business via ass kickings. But we are at the anarchotyrrany minimum of the civilization=f(law) quadratic curve

All pro choice people at their core hold this position But they will spend all day deflecting — what about rape, what about poverty, what about health conditions Bla bla bla This is why when debating pro aborts the only thing you need to ask is: if abortion was allowed for all of these situations would you then be anti abortion And the answer is obviously no. It is not about wether a child in the womb is alive or is a person or a human, it is simply about women having the ability to avoid the consequences of their own actions.

i would support abortion even if i believed life began at conception
