@Space_Ignorant@NicoleArbour But who defines hate speech? That is the issue with these types of laws. Those in power are the ones who maintain the control.
@NicoleArbour I hear you. I emotionally understand. But logically cannot agree. What happens when the government takes ahold of that law and starts using it to revoke more speech from its citizens? The first amendment protects Americans from a tyrannical government, let us not pass laws…
@realIrishLyre @yashar Term limits would alleviate lifelong politicians from staying in office until infirm or dead. I am also in favor of auditing finances of politicians regularly and imposing cognitive tests. Just don’t believe a blanket age limit would be beneficial in humanity’s long-term.
@realIrishLyre @yashar I don’t disagree with your intent, but I would recommend we pass term limits to help alleviate this issue rather than imposing an age limit. The reason being that we should hope and expect human life expectancy to grow. So an age limit set today may not apply years from now.
@CryptoWendyO@elonmusk So it is an actual donation from someone intending to give money to the Democratic Party, but who they said donated it isn’t the one who donated it.
It is a big ol view of corruption and likely outside influence.
@Holly_A_K@JARofGeek@yvonnalynn@KurtSchlichter The Constitution was designed to limit the power of the federal government. The first 10 amendments were drafted to provide unalienable rights for individuals that no govt could impede. Additional amendments have been added to limit the federal government.
@Holly_A_K@JARofGeek@yvonnalynn@KurtSchlichter An interpretation of the words as written at the time they were written. With amendments to alter the course of the federal govt. Or it is interpreted as a living document altering said definitions. Again, that is why I shared an originalist interpretation as it limits the fed.
@Holly_A_K@JARofGeek@yvonnalynn@KurtSchlichter So the words as written in the 1800s have a different intent than when used today. So instead of redefining that intent, we should be passing new amendments to address the new interpretation and intent of our governance.
@Holly_A_K@JARofGeek@yvonnalynn@KurtSchlichter The founding fathers could not predict just how language would change over the years. Words have gained new meanings and added definitions.
@Holly_A_K@JARofGeek@yvonnalynn@KurtSchlichter This is why EO’s challenging judicial rulings are using these rulings are part of the balance of power. The debate has never been settled on this ideology so there is plenty that can be reinterpreted based on either side.
@Holly_A_K@JARofGeek@yvonnalynn@KurtSchlichter So if judicial rulings under a living constitutionalist interpretation expand what the scope of what the federal govt can do, anything the fed does under that interpretation should actually be a power the states hold.
