The sheer amount of dedication it takes to keep up a ruse for that long is astonishing. He made it all the way to leadership of Utah, that's ridiculous!

And he probably could've gone even further since I don't think it was necessary for him to bail when he did. He only sent an email warning a local politician about a death threat. It's the US, I figure that's a routine thing. The woman calling for the assassination could reasonably have been blamed for the leak instead since she's a civilian who probably doesn't practice good security. Idk it just doesn't seem as incriminating to me as it did to him.

Because of course the US would make a law that exempts farmerworkers from labor protections

Why would anyone drown if swimming was that easy? It's like riding a bike: trivial and instinctive for those who know, but dangerous and complicated for those who don't.

Makes it even more difficult to sum up your purchases, I'm guessing

Women can have control over their bodies, except when it comes to abortion apparently

It's possible because he's not a politician anymore.

Thinking about it, there's a huge selection bias in our governments isn't there? The people with principles, with a conscience AND a spine to back it up don't make it to office. And the few strays filter themselves out after a while like this guy did.

In addition to what everyone else already said, being against something isn't the same as supporting something.

Anarchists are pro-anarchy, communists are pro-communism, but anti-authoritarians aren't necessarily either of those two. They're anti-authority, which is often a word they themselves can't even define. And because it's impossible to exercise in reality, they have to pick and choose which powers they consider "authoritarian" and which aren't. Since these people don't read, this just ends up looking like another flavor of liberalism.

That's fair. To be clear, I didn't mean it that way
