Mmmmmm delicious irony.

The 13th Amendment

continue to be a slave state*

Like the rest of the entire country already is*

My point being that it should be more shocking to people that this is the way of the country as a whole instead of framing it as a California only problem.

Wow you really put a lot of cheap assumptions on what my point was instead of just waiting for me to answer (especially when I said exactly why it was a spin the first time…), you kind of suck. Stop assuming the worst as step 1 in how you deal with other people.

The spin is they took the truth “this will continue to be legal in California and the US” and spun it into something that makes it sound like its just California, like were upholding some ancient California law. It is a shifting of the narrative that this is legal across the entire country, which is much more concerning, and making it seem like this is a California only problem.

Also the title saying the US is collapsing, being active tense, implies that this decision is part of the cause or a symptom of, like this hasn’t been in the US Constitution since 1864.

But yeah were definitely collapsing, just for other reasons lol

This is a spin on the truth. Slavery has never not been illegal always been legal per the US constitution, as long as the slaves are prisoners. We had a prop on it to disallow mandatory labor in prisons in California. We voted against it because Americans have a hard-on for punishment. Personally I think being caged is punishment enough, ESPECIALLY when you consider the sheer volume of for profit prisons in the US. Hurray, private business can keep doing slavery in the state -_-

It has been and still is legal in federal law across the US

It fits alot of topics. People just stop learning by middle school and go through their lives ignorant to the world outside of their limited personal experience. It’s not surprising that the world’s population is so easily manipulated into being scared of everything…

Trust me, the US economy unraveling will be felt by everyone, do you think a country this big, and so militaristic is not going to make our economy everyone elses problem. Half of the reason I’ve cited for not wanting children is that I’m not trying to raise a kid to watch them die in the next global catastrophe we are racing full speed towards…

It’s infuriating how ignorant the majority of our country is to the state of affairs…

But hey, at least our 401k’s grew a bunch before the dollar became worthless…

I dont understand, how will prices raising lower the demand until it was cheaper than before prices rose?

Ohhh you don’t live in this dumpster fire, lucky

See the problem with this stupid labeling is that everyone has a different definition so no one knows what the fuck anyone else is saying. Just knock it off with the labels, attribute the quality or idea you mean instead of a lazy fucking label…

You know how many conversations Ive been in where i was confused until i realized the word meant different things to us. Seriously the labeling in politics is getting out of control, everyone groups everything up into a category because it makes it easy to manipulate people against it, so noone knows what the word means anymore because everyone is defining it as something different every day.

Not using labels is double plus good…

No judgement, just curious, but is the idea here that conservative men should not be allowed to have sex since they don’t respect women? All for it, agree 100%. But i have a hard time imagining a feminist being with that type of man anyways, since the majority of feminist Ive met have self respect. So then you’re not sleeping with any men to punish them, and yourself, for conservative men? I feel like I’m missing something.

Or is this article just implying 4B is something completly different than what it actually is? You know, cuz clickbait isn’t concerned with being factual…

That argument sounds great until you consider that a piece of paper won’t contain almost the entirety of your personal information, web traffic, location history, communications. You may say you could find most of that pre computer era in someone’s house, but guess what you would need to get inside and find those pieces of paper…

Which is great, because you can’t warrant a password.

Was always a fan of the tacoma they were making before they increased the size of it, thing was kind of the perfect size. Roomy enough cabin, small enough to be drivable in a parking lot, enough bed for towing occasionally.

Id settle just for a truck that isnt very clearly pandering “im a big boy!” energy. There all way too fucking big for no god damn reason other than validation of ego. Bunch of weak fucking man babies need some million ton 3 lane wide truck just so they can pretend theyre a big strong man to themselves and everyone else, despite never using the truck for what its purpose is supposed to be.

The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States

The supreme court would have to get pretty fucking bold to weigh in on this as it is a clearly defined power of congress.

Then again its not like there are any fucking checks on power of the supreme court anymore as 2/3’s of congress is required for fucking anything, which will never fucking happen on any topic ever again.

Where do you get that opinion? From my point of view being a state gives representation, how could this be worse than being unrepresented and ignored entirely?

Oh wonderful, a new anxiety is unlocked… Though I will say that this wouldn’t happen until mid to late December, and we will have election results around Nov 6-8. This is definitely a much harder gambit with over a month of time knowing the result of the election, that is to say, it’ll be much more clearly a coup than if it happened during election day. Lets just hope this is a landslide for Harris, and the chance of this being a viable option for trump being even lower.

Not to say you are right or wrong, but by that logic I could tell you that santa clause has also prevented nuclear war an knowable number of times. Its a bad argument.

You’re right, its a drop in the bucket for votes, but its a bullshit reason to cry “corruption” which we will certainly feel.
