Biden should unpack the court. Or, he can shut it down. The Republican justices have violated their oaths and their loyalty to the country to further their religious agenda. That kind of sedition deserves the most severe penalty, even if it isn't outlined in the constitution. This judicial coup needs to be deeply investigated and stopped.

Attended my first Star Trek convention, in Vulcan, Alberta two weeks ago

racocn8 comments on Jul 1, 2022:

Star Trek interests me in the idea of seeking to portray an interplanetary ecology of intelligent species. It projects Humanity as being one among many intelligent species exploring the Universe. Compare what might be to what seems to be... If one supposes UFO reporting to be nominally accurate, more than a few species visit this planet, mostly complying with a Prime Directive of non-interference. If more than a few species visit, that suggests alien societies achieve a level of stability that enables them to pursue interstellar exploration. The technological prowess demonstrated by UFO reporting are very suggestive: high-speed right-angle turns, transiting ocean waters as if the water wasn't there, transiting air without a shock wave, vertical climb or descent, all with no lift surfaces and no visible means of propulsion. Also surprising is how many different kinds of craft are seen.

Testifying against evil in front of Humanity means she painted a giant target on her back for the rest of her life. That appears heroic. Maybe it wasn't heroic, but was simply stupid. One doesn't keep company with cowardly fascist thugs unless one is also degenerate. The bigger problem is that the GQP still identify as supporting Trump against any democrat. Indeed, the GQP now sanctions lawless anything goes, and even violence; whatever it takes to regain power. No rules can't be broken, and destroying government functions is deemed a desirable by-product. It's a suicide pact set up by the GQP, which operates from a martyr complex psychology. They're ready to die because they think heaven awaits. Mostly, they don't think about it and instead recite Fox memes...

On #3, Stone had a relationship with both the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers militias. It was never believable to suppose Trump didn't know guns would be and were be present. Being armed is what 'militia' means. As for prosecuting Trump, apparently these shitheads are putting out the notion of "Prosecutorial Discretion" wherein a decision to prosecute includes consideration of "what is good for the country." What that translates into is that the compromised DOJ can dismiss justice in favor of maintaining a tiered justice system. (Maintaining immunity for the wealthy who have bribed DOJ officials who are so badly underpaid, and support Trump). USA-RIP

Our nation is poorly served if the centers of power arrange to field candidates that lose. Hillary may have been competent in some ways, but she was not well, the campaign failed in several critical states, and she alienated Progressives and motivated Republicans.

Whether it's Roe or Trump, Democrats only get as much blame as is left after denouncing the Republicans. Clearly many people who would vote Democrat simply don't vote, and that has also given Republicans margins in the legislatures and Congress. In 2016, minorities, Women and Progressives gave a poor turnout, regardless of the excuses. Kudos to Stacy Abrams for showing what is possible.

Putin and the fascist Christians have mounted a highly organized attack, much of it based on psychological warfare. Having already made inroads into the military and intelligence community, the latter either chose not to defend or had no defenses. Installing Trump set up the country to lose the SQOTUS. Given the wholesale firehose of corruption spewed by the GQP, no one is up to the task of getting the reins of power back. The Pentagon and FBI have failed in the worst ways possible. How things fall apart may well get very ugly. The GQP wanted less government, but their treachery will turn on them soon enough. Shame on the voters who didn't vote in 2016. Shame on the Military Industrial Complex for leaving the country open to attack. Shame on the GQP, although they are subhumans incapable of knowing of shame or feeling it. Same on the dems for their corruption, hubris and stupidity.

Maher is so full of shit. He claimed that the desire for social equity is what's holding up the banking, because GQP won't sign off on that. The problem with that is that it is just an excuse on the part of the GQP. This is part of the culture war and they have no desire to lose that dog whistle. Please note that not providing for social equity is very much in line with GQP racism. The reality is that after 80 years of illegality, the black market is fully mature, and provides a powerful and reliable alternative to legally sold cannabis. Given the propensity for govt to extract maximum taxes and require inconvenient store locations, the black market will continue to thrive. All the corporate cannabis sellers are suffering as a result, which may not be a bad thing.

There might and should be a way to prove God if it existed. It is vanishingly unlikely that no evidence should remain (Is god humble??!!). The atheist's definition of atheist is that without evidence for any god, no belief is warranted. Proof and disproof are not involved. The Christian definition of atheist is that atheists won't believe in their god out of defiance and hatred. Christians also say atheists make the claim that god doesn't exist, although they can't name any atheists who make that claim (...because that is also a claim unsupported by evidence).

He was affirmed in spite of demonstrating manifest unfitness (revealing himself to be a psychopathic partisan). Similarly, Barrett is also a nut-job and only voted in along partisan lines. Thomas's nomination proceeded even though other accusers went unheard. (Also, Ginsburg failing to retire during a democrat administration didn't help. She did not anticipate or grasp the level of corruption the GQP would sink to with Trump & McConnell.)

Maybe that's a valid calculation? That abortion is a wholly contrived GQP gimmick to turn out evangelicals and catholics makes this all the more sickening. It's not a real issue and is completely made-up. The question is whether 2022 hasn't already been corrupted by the Christian fascists. This is such a perverse script.
