i do declare, f*ck off

2018-11-16 19:19:56 UTC  

I can put a finer point on my argument earlier... The Press as we know it was intended to be the realization of the Freedom of the press, not the beneficiary.

2018-11-16 19:21:03 UTC  

The argument being floated in favor of Jim is that the media owns the freedom, implying that the commoner doesn't.

2018-11-16 19:22:43 UTC  

There is, in fact, explicitly no rank in government that is not that of a commoner, and yet we're allowing the media to encroach where our government leaders already have as well.

Equality is shot when you consider that congress can make rules that don't apply to them. But that's another subject.

2018-11-16 20:27:13 UTC  

That 28th amendment thing doesn't seem like a bad idea

2018-11-16 20:29:12 UTC  

Also that nbc article is awful, he literally made a joke that requires you don't agree with Nazis to find funny

"I don't want you to think I'm picking on you because we're part of the master race"

2018-11-16 20:30:59 UTC  

Ikr?

2018-11-16 20:31:10 UTC  

It was a dig at identity politics

2018-11-16 20:31:32 UTC  

But of course, the intentional snowflakes go running

Well, he kinda has a point, hasn't he?
I mean you'd only want to move to Countrys made by caucasians, right?

2018-11-16 21:08:23 UTC  

Stopgap measures.

2018-11-16 21:09:04 UTC  

If you're going to make an amendment make it something big, like abolishing political parties.

2018-11-16 21:09:24 UTC  

That's not a too bad idea.

2018-11-16 21:09:36 UTC  

or make them small, regional

2018-11-16 21:12:18 UTC  

Allow for affiliation, requiring transparency, abolish campaign finance outside constituent boundaries

2018-11-16 21:12:31 UTC  

Oh nice.

2018-11-16 21:12:51 UTC  

The bipartisan system is kind of slowly eating away at America lately lmao

2018-11-16 21:13:02 UTC  

And any other regions with that going on

2018-11-16 21:13:43 UTC  

PACs are fine. They can be nerfed through a constituency chapter requirement.

2018-11-16 21:14:04 UTC  

In such a way, republican party would become a republican PAC.

2018-11-16 21:15:40 UTC  

The infrastructure requirement would favor representation, and become a mitigating factor for national PACs.

2018-11-16 21:15:54 UTC  

A partial drain on their financial power.

2018-11-16 21:18:05 UTC  

Money is part of democracy, funding across state lines is like a vote in another state's elections.

2018-11-16 21:32:04 UTC  

yeah, the State needs to finance the Partys and get the 3rd party money out of hte partys

2018-11-16 21:39:16 UTC  

Huh?

2018-11-16 21:39:49 UTC  

The constituency needs to finance the candidate, not the party.

2018-11-16 22:51:44 UTC  

This is a congressman talking about the theoretical ability of the US nuking their own cities.

2018-11-16 22:53:45 UTC  

What a turd

2018-11-16 22:55:06 UTC  

Then start the war in dc

2018-11-16 22:57:55 UTC  

"we would rather you be radioactive ash than armed and able to defend yourselves"

2018-11-16 23:02:30 UTC  

More like "If we ever really decide to take your guns you won't be able to stop us." Still an incredibly stupid thing for a congressman to say, and incredibly myopic as to the realities of civil war.

That's not a Dem or Repub thing, that's just a stupid thing. Fortunately this man is about as far away from the levers of power as Cortez.
