F_Shit_Fitzgerald posted:Are the lower courts less likely to approve of the census question? I guess that's the big question for me. Setting aside the time frame involved and this regime's ability to find its rear end with two hands and a map, if the lower courts are less disposed to approving the question, then maybe this is a win in disguise? No, in fact after the leak exposing what the question was about, one of the lower courts actually ordered the case be sent back to them, because the judge is pissed.

CAPS LOCK BROKEN posted:I'm not justifying the actions of any country. Obviously, the rights situation in NK can use improvement. However, you might be surprised to know that NK, like most of the west's "enemies," has friendly relations with almost the entire non-aligned, developing country bloc of nations and is only reviled by the west. You are justifying the actions of North Korea, sorry dude. Plenty of countries with lovely reputations have "friendly" relations outside of their sphere of influence, that doesn't make them a NOT lovely nation. Diplomatic ties are normal, even for lovely countries. quote:The problem with American liberals is how much kneejerk backpedaling they are forced to do out of partisan spite. Everyone here was scared shitless that trump was about to start a war in NK in 2016, now the same people mad about Trump antagonizing official enemies in a dangerous way are mad Trump is appeasing official enemies in a dangerous way. Stop trying to rationalize the actions of Trump. He is more knee jerk than the liberals you claim to correct. Trump is looking for a political out, but this is just want KJU wants. There's a reason no other president was willing to meet with KJU in person like this. Because KJU is just little for fodder for his propaganda, not to actually make any amends or restore social ties. Its two irrational actors looking for quick wins because both are facing trouble, but KJU is the only one who benefits here.

Tacier posted:I’ll give this a listen since most of what I’ve heard Sam Harris say about Islam has sounded fairly sensible to me. I disagree with a lot of his foreign policy opinions, but he makes a fair point that progressives spend a surprising amount of effort decrying islamophobia when the religion of Islam is itself totally antithetical to a lot of progressive principles. https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Sam_Harris#Anti-Islam_or_Islamophobe.3F Sam Harris promoted Eugenics, The Bell Curve, and a bunch of very, VERY GOP views on Islam. He also loves pulling the "Both Sides" bullshit in regards to the Alt-Right and Antifa. quote:Despite Harris' fundamental alignment with liberals against the GOP, irresponsible adventures like these lend false credence to the right wing, reactionaries, and true regressives. Naturally, this is not because Harris criticizes Islam (which tends to be politically conservative), but rather because Cruz' confused motion that "Muslims need not apply" amounts to nothing but an intellectualized version, not just of anti-immigrant xenophobia, but of overt bigotry on the basis of faith. Harris, like Cruz, also seems to have overlooked the fact that a jihadist seeking to enter the United States under the guise of a refugee could simply lie about his faith and claim to be Christian.

pkay posted:Couldn't the same be said about Judaism? Equating your self as God's chosen people doesn't really fit the egalitarian framework of progressivism. Basically, he is roping in sympathetic dopes like yourself into agreeing with him in the future when he says progressively crazier more extreme poo poo. Don't get sucked in. Yeah, he loves playing the GOP talking points when convenient quote:Harris had another podcast with Gavin de Becker, and the topic switched to Antifa and the chaos in Charlottesville. Again, he chose to condemn Antifa as "also violent," ripping the same page straight out of Donald Trump's playbook, and portrayed the Neo-Nazis as victims of violence by "Antifa goons." He unironically called the pro-Confederate Neo-Nazis "peaceful marchers who just happened to be Nazis". He called Antifa "a dangerous organization" and condemned them for committing acts of violence against, again, "peaceful marchers who just happened to be Nazis." This leaves out how, if there were any violence done by "Antifa goons," Richard Spencer notwithstanding, it was generally done in self defense after the Neo-Nazis themselves ended their "peaceful" marching by actively killing people or attempting to kill people on the streets.[49] Still on the topic of the right wing's rise, Harris said that his major concern was that the left was abdicating its responsibility to criticize "creeping theocracy under the guise of civil rights for Muslims" to the far right, saying the latter is the increasingly becoming the only one "calling a spade a spade and addressing" this great danger of a Muslim theocracy occurring in Christian American.[

I don't think Epstein is that smart. He's being prosecuted again for the same crime, twice. If he was smart, after getting off easy the first time, he'd have left the country. He's still here.
