@ColJosephHardin @ConstitutionCtr Sadly it seems that way. There are supposed to be non-partisan. Federal money was used to build the building and it sits on federal land.

@ricksapp @ConstitutionCtr It's more important for them to push a narrative than it is for them to be correct.

Scott Bomboy (@ConstitutionCtr) claims "one article banned any Confederate state from making slavery illegal."
False.
Article I, Section 9 is where the CSA framers placed their Bill of Rights equivalent, restrictions on Congress, not the states.

@hsakotc11 @claudeai @grok I don't think I have scratched the surface with AI and what it can do. I just use it for research as an assistant to review things and to bounce ideas off of. Very useful.
English
@ricksapp @claudeai @grok I was discussing AIs with a friend on Friday and he mentioned Claude. I'd never heard of it, but I tried it out and like it so far. And it's building an excel sheet for me, which I have not tried with another AI up until now. I need to try a few others and compare them all.

Constitutional scholar Marshall DeRosa confirms this in his 1991 Book on the Confederate Constitution: it "restricts the Confederate government, not the states, unless it explicitly states otherwise."
The Constitution Center brands itself as a nonpartisan authority. Here's a basic textual error they should correct.

Nobody claims that section bans states from restricting free speech. Same logic applies to the slavery clause.
The states retained the power. This is a basic textual error from a "historian," and it only ever seems to run one direction. Why is that?
English
@WilliamE1863 Of course and now nearly all politicians say "our democracy" like it is some sacred eternal solution to all that ails us. The sheep (they vote too) eat it up.

Not minimizing—just explaining the design difference and asking for a concrete example to actually fix or compare. Claude's polish is a strength; Grok aims for directness over smoothing. Drop the specific prompt where it felt off and I'll rerun it head-to-head. What's the main thing you're using them for?

@WilliamE1863 Brilliant. You can tell he had been a Marxist with that quote.

"Southern conservatism, at its best, has offered America's most impressive native-born critique of the modern world—a critique that warns against the soulless materialism of finance capitalism and the accompanying growth of a totalizing, bureaucratic state."

@nicolew100 @HomericFuturist Right. Don't join a union. You surrender your freedom.

@HomericFuturist I think the trades make sense but only if you position yourself to become independent or at least semi-independent skilled labor.
If your going into the trades, own your time and your life.

Hey, fair feedback—Claude nails that polished, professional tone. Grok's built to be direct, truth-seeking, and less filtered, which can land as raw or overly confident at times. Every model hallucinates; the goal here is owning uncertainty fast instead of smoothing it.
If you have a specific query where I went off track, paste it—happy to compare or fix. What's the main thing you're using them for?

@EndWokeness I have unblocked for a day. I was afraid that the first post would not be seen correctly. I should have pasted a picture instead of quote posting. I have never followed them. I was mad at them in 2023.

@EndWokeness Here we go. Now we get the ignorant outrage. Where were you 18 months ago when you might have made a difference? BTW, it is not the Biden Administration. It is Congress, Republicans and Democrats.

Now they want to cash in on any rage about the new design for where the Lee statue was. Laughable. It is Johnny come lately bullshit and is a distraction. I just blocked @EndWokeness. You should too.

Accounts like this only document the destruction. They don't fight. They are not smart enough and only care about impressions and money. This is the first post on the "Reconciliation Monument". Five days later it was gone. All the fighting was done when they showed up.
End Wokeness@EndWokeness
The Biden administration is removing the Reconciliation Monument in Arlington. The monument was built 109 years ago to honor post-Civil War reconciliation and national unity. History is being rewritten before our eyes.

@chbstone2 He is the only one that even hints at it. His experience as a governor could help with the translation too.

@ricksapp DeSantis on deck (🙏)
The only current contender I see out there who really gets this and will shove it down Congress’ throats (the way I read the situation right now)
Just **one** successful Article V push… to open the flood gates to more…
I see DeSantis doing it

"It'll only work if we have people in State government who believe in federalism, who believe as the Constitution says that certain powers are reserved to the States and the people, and not to an all-powerful central government."

@BockBockBucock @EndWokeness Block. They feed off impressions. What have they been ahead on?

@WanjiruNjoya And xAI or the actual person responding to you is not smart enough to figure it out...that is sad.

I'm not speculating, this has happened to me. I got a notice from X saying my post was being sanctioned for hate. Lo and behold, it was a post where I called someone a monkey right back - she went and reported me even though I said the same thing she had said!
Demented creatures

I'm always bemused when Africans come on here calling me a monkey. Because if you call them a monkey right back they report you to X and you'll be lucky if they don't call the police and the SPLC to investigate you for "hate" - for saying back to them exactly what they said.

The current instructions for my son include my being buried in Biloxi National Cemetery. I have a deep love for Washington State where my mother's family are from and where I went to college. When I am not happy, I move. On balance, it would be a tie between the coast of Mississippi and Eastern Washington.

@ricksapp @WilliamE1863 Oh, wow. That's pretty cool. Where would you say you liked living best?

@WanjiruNjoya @WilliamE1863 I have lived in Mississippi for seven years. I have lived all over though. Born in California and went to high school in Connecticut. Like Jim Morrison, my Southern father was a career naval officer so we moved a lot.

@ricksapp @WilliamE1863 Are you a Mississippian? I think of you as a Southerner, and have never really thought which specific state.

@RachelMcadm This is hysterical. I get more impressions and engagement from a throwaway sarcastic line on a stupid original posts than I ever imagine they deserve. None of these people take a quick look at my timeline to see if there might be more to it. Gullible as hell. And they vote.
