OH WOW! That's such a weird coincidence! Imagine the odds of that! /s

Of course they did. The thing is the way the law is written violates the Constitution by promoting an ideologically-loaded, outdated translation of the Bible used by more socially extreme groups.

  • NRSV(UE) is the gold standard nowadays.
  • Leather cover? Why? What's the point?
  • The Founding Documents to the United States do not belong in a Bible. Not everything has to be tarnished with crass "Patriotic" grift.
  • Just the Bill of Rights? The Amendments to the Constitution are legally part of the Constitution. What are they not included? Is there something in those Amendments they don't feel is appropriate?
  • This Bible has consistent poor reviews on Youtube. A number of Bible collectors, theologians, pastors, etc have panned this book for being cheaply and poorly made. It has poor print quality, it's pages stick together, are thin, and rip easy.

It should be obvious to anyone this is an ideological grift and it is criminal graft too. These criminals need to be thrown in prison for this.

Going to? The US has been doing that since the day it gained its independence.

Thats because back then you got a paid lunch and in the 1990s companies stopped offering that and said it was a boon to workers because "you can leave the property for lunch" and other excuses like "liability" and such.

Now workers have to stay an extra hour and dont get paid for that time.

If I see a sign in a business whining about workers or people not wanting to work, I will straight up leave and go somewhere else. Tells me everything I need to know about how the owner treats their workers.

It's newspeak for "I don't want messages that I disgree with in my media."

Just like when conservatives complain about something being "political" they mean "progressive" and by progressive I mean "they saw a minority."

It's a way of saying something without saying it.

The GOP is not ideologically opposed to government, they believe the government's sole purpose is punishment, keeping people "in their place", and engaging in grafting / racketeering. They have no issue stealing our tax dollars for the purpose of giving them to the police, military, and business subsidies.

Exactly, parents will care when their children who received a Florida education are not competitive enough to compete in a capitalist environment. They'll realize this soon enough when their children haven't learned anything in school aside from propaganda.

Let them sacrifice their own children to Mammon. It is what they said they wanted, after all. Maybe this will be the wake up call they finally need. They wanted to "stop woke" and didn't realize it meant "stay asleep, plebs."

As someone who train-hooped out of Florida years ago, I fucking warned y'all and now it's happening. I knew this was the trajectory when Jeb Bush got elected in the 1990s and I was in middle school at the time!

I think when parents realize DeSantis just sentenced their kids to fighting to be menial wage slaves for the local corrupt petty bourgeois of every little shithole county while they have to attempt to convince professionals to move to their state they will regret all this and unfortunately the only way they will ever learn is by once again screwing themselves.

The people that vote for the GOP would probably not give two shits about the kompromat. Were talking about a party of criminals, rapists, pedophiles, crooks, grifters, grafters, racketeers, and every other thing you can think of. If anything, their voters love it. They see hypocrisy as a display of power—a flex. It's a manner of "owning the libs." The only thing the kompromat would do is serve to embarrass and shame, assuming they still have any sense if shame. And if they have no shame, it is to their benefit to embrace and show it off.

We are dealing with a party that revels in wickedness. The only thing more powerful than kompromat is the words of the leader, the Orange Menace himself. If Donald Trump wanted to burn someone he'd just say something and his sycophants would believe it mostly without question.

Turn it on anyway. If they say amything it's an OSHA violation. Also, record your interactions with management so it is documented. If they can surveil you, you can surveil them.

Every time I hear the phrase "under oath" I mentally replace it with "pinky promise" because it all has tbe exact same amount of weight. There's no reason to assume someone is being truthful just because they promised you they aren't lying.

Then there is the technicality of "if they believe it is the truth then they aren't lying" so as long as other have convinced them enough for them to believe it, then they haven't broken their oath.

This is just meaningless elementary school behavior from adults and anyone that can't see that or thinks oaths and such symbolic social constructs are meaningful are not worth taking seriously.

Rothbard is the reason we associate Libertarianism with the Right. He's the one that suggested calling themselves Libertarians and Anarcho-Capitalists. Before him, Libertarianism was a Socialist thing and had little to do with Capitalism.

Basically, modern Libertarians stole the term from the Left to re-brand themselves as something they weren't and to create this guise of pretending to care about people's liberty and freedom—which they also don't because Rothbard supported and advised Fascists and had no problem with slavery or indentured servitude.

The Right loves to steal and re-define terms used on the left.

Pretty sure there are still states in the US where a marriage liscense is basically just that. God I hate it here.
