“I don’t vote because none of the candidates are ideologically pure… Wait, how did I end up in this conservative hellscape?!” is a take that seems to be unique to and pervasive among the American Tankie Left.
Also: Get off your arse and vote. My constituency was won for Labour by 15 votes. A high turnout from the French sorted this. You don't vote? Well, the fash do. If you're replying to this with why it's ideologically impure for a truly left wing person to vote, please just block yourself, I'm tired.

Sorry to all my lawyer friends who spent a bunch of time learning how law works in the US. I had friends who were Flash developers and things turned out alright for them after they pivoted to C# or whatever. Hopefully there's an equivalent for our national legal system

It's wild that a majority of SCOTUS believe that Roe was bad law because the Court legislated from the bench, but now tell us, "We'll decide if a gun law is okay and make up historical precedent as needed."

It's really weird (it's not really weird) how states that ban abortions are also states where women can't get leave to take care of their children.

X is a lumbering husk, full of Nazis and crypto spam and AI pornbots. Political insiders still use the lumbering husk because they’re basically hermit crabs. They’ll stay in that shell until there’s a bigger and better one.

Hey, perhaps some of the critiques of the Trump prosecution are valid. I propose we have a neutral legal expert look at them, have legal representatives from both the prosecution and the defense make their cases with evidence and testimony, and then have a group of 12 citizens render a judgment.

just remember trump won't read your jokes about him, unless, as we recently found out, you get jury selected on one of his other trials, in which case they might actually be read out to him to his face, so, y'know, go for it

It sure would be comical if Samuel Alito had recently published an opinion in which he expressed strong feelings about flags and wrote that passersby viewing a flag flying over a building would naturally assume the flag conveys some message on the owner's behalf www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21p...
