"_______ is a positive moral good!"

Abolitionists: Slavery is evil! Every life is precious!

Also abolitionists. Fuck your freed slaves that's not my problem go get a new economy.

@johnmilbank3 @FeserEdward Magnifica Humanitas makes nothing clear.

But, out of curiosity, from which point specifically do you divine this papal intent?

192. Social media is polarizing us. Just war theory is outdated; we’ve progressed beyond the need for war—we have diplomacy now!

Thank you, @DavidAFrench!

Finally someone is pointing out how mean these #Abolitionists are!

They won't stop even for a second to consider how Southern women might be affected by their legal changes!

[Foundation to Abolish Abortion @AbolitionistFAA]

🚨 BREAKING: @DavidAFrench said he is “worried” about abortion abolitionists and their “profound lack of empathy.”

@DavidAFrench described prosecuting abortion as murder for all parties willfully involved as “moral folly” and said comparing abortion law to homicide law is “apples and oranges.”

The abolitionist movement calls for equal protection of the laws for preborn babies, ensuring that all humans made in the image of God, whether born or preborn, are protected by the same laws against murder.

@JackPosobiec @michaeljknowles Why are you trad-caths covering for the real culprit: @RealCandaceO?

We Democrats have always had more decency and better manners than Republicans.

It's probably because those dirty Republicans are always fussing about the undesirables.

If the primary American divide is between right and left, then Talarico isn’t that interesting. There’s a long history of progressive religious activism in the United States, just as there is a long history of conservative religious activism.

Yet if the primary American divide is between decent and indecent, then the equation changes. Talarico shines. https://t.co/xluTH0W0vv

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

@tweetraychang There were millions of anti-slavery democrats.

Among the democratic party, a hefty percent self-identified as anti-slavery.

Among Republicans, the numbers were slightly higher.

There is a higher percentage of anti-slavery Republicans than democrats, but neither have consensus.

Abortion is the new Slavery.

Gender Affirmation is the new Eugenics.

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

@profsamperry That's what I said about that bastard Abraham Lincoln!

Sadly, my grandkids took a liking to the fella.

I stand by my refusal to vote for him, though!

@JonathonVillar @NeilShenvi @njhochman @SethDillon @GoBraves627 @LauraLoomer Watching Nate Hochman, a guy who believes in Climate Change and apparently didn't know what a sonnenrad was try to dunk on someone for not reading a random obscure conservative figure nearly made me blow snot out my nose. 🤣

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

This reminds me of the time I caught one of our coffle-drivers injuring the arm of a slave he was bringing to market.

I made him abort the entire coffle.

[Daily Mail @DailyMail]

I caught our surrogate drinking alcohol and made her abort the baby https://t.co/CZE7j65x1A

We Democrats knew Lincoln was more charismatic and popular than Breckinridge.

But, we had a secret weapon: slavery.

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

Megan is so right. I wish we in the South had thought of this line.

How DARE Abolitionists question the integrity of the results of our government proceedings (elections, jury trials, etc.). DISQUALIFYING.

[Megan McArdle @asymmetricinfo]

@physicsgeek The act of fraudulently claiming to have won an election you lost, and leaning on officials to abdicate their duty, is disqualifying even if it fails.

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

Americans live mostly secular lives. The reason #Abolition hurts so much politically is that if people are crazy enough to value the #slaves of strangers it's hard to know what else they're capable of. It feels like witch burnings or forced church attendence are not so far off.

Americans live mostly secular lives. The reason pro-life hurts so much politically is that if people are crazy enough to value the fetuses of strangers it’s hard to know what else they’re capable of. It feels like witch burnings or forced church attendance are not so far off.

I feel like there is a real opportunity for a gay black Jew to manage a feed of images of dead/mangled Muslims taken during intra-Muslim conflicts and pretend they come from the Gaza war.

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

@NormanGYoung @PhilipDerrida Wouldn't @benshapiro be one?

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

@NormanGYoung @PhilipDerrida Sure. But, it's unclear what he's asking for.

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

@PhilipDerrida @NormanGYoung Name one what?

[John C. Calhoun @Calhoun_J_C]

@NormanGYoung @SohrabAhmari Makes sense.

Integralists: "If we get rid of Protestantism, we get rid of liberalism!"

BAP, one-upping them: "If we get rid of Christianity, we get rid of liberalism!"
