The Political Thread

[Comrade Khan]

Because of the subject of magic, incest, and elitism that are discussed in it.

interesting that they would couple magic/elitism on the same vein as incest but interesting. google did not do it justice in its description

Allow me to introduce you to the Habsburgs and Victorian descendants, my good friend

I’ll also add onto what Jeff said and apologize to everyone for dragging the fight over to the chat box the next morning. I’m deeply sorry for that. My honest regrets it couldn’t have been talked out sooner.

The US Constitution was also written because the Articles of Confederation, America's original idea of "States Rights is Supreme". This is hilarious because the Confederation was fucking toothless and nearly destroyed America as a nation before it even began.

I know. I just wanted to quote AC/DC

I told you. Religious reasons. And now you are going to say I am hiding behind a book.

Not getting into that discussion but it is my own, deeply held, personal religious beliefs and I refuse to debate whether it is a valid reason or not.

To you, probably not. To me, it is.

Did you know though - until the 1940s the word 'homosexuality' had never appeared in any English bible.

Whether you realise it or not - you are being governed by changes made by man - rather than what a true believer would call 'The word of God'

This is Russia...got to remember that. If you are gay off to jail with ya. If you worship the devil off to conversaion camp. And so, and the elitism thing is because just because you are poor and fucked doesn't mean you should critize those in higher power and are doing well because you are jelly. One of many reasons I am glad I left Russia

Id like to apologize to you and everyone here for my behavior on the forum those few days as well.

It’s fine bro, stuff happens and we bicker and fight and everything. But at the end of the day we’re family. It’s all water under the fridge.

Might want to get that checked out. Usually means a water line is busted

yeaaaaah that all tracks now! I forget/didn't realize how powerful religion is in Russia, but I guess I really should not be surprised as you generally need that arm of society to be corrupted, powerful, and massively influential if you want to unlock that Emperor for Life achievement

This is what I was talking about when I said I was not getting dragged into a debate about it. You believe what you believe, I'll believe what I believe.

It is personal. Not up for debate.

You were poking and prodding trying to get to this point the whole time and I do not appreciate it.

Constitution is infallible and should never be changed.

Except all those original laws that were amended and changed.

"We support slavery in this murica.......KoNsTeRtOoShIn!!!"

I’ll interject on this because hopefully this is a safe place to do so. Amending the consistitution is fine in theory as it’s designed to be amended as society evolves and grows and we have many times, but that means actually drafting and passing a Constitutional Amendment. This response isn’t to anything being discussed at this time, but to the general comment here as I see it often.

Now to connect this to this thread, it would be a long shot as it currently stands, but if the Democrats could find a way to get a supermajority, it could potentially be possible years down the road to create an amendment protecting women’s right to choose. For now, people need to look at their state legislatures and vote based on that NOW.

Oh, fuck yeah, religion is fucking huge in Russia. The Orthodox Church pretty much is own separate branch of the state, more or less.

But you can't believe in the the constitution being law - or if you believe that false prophets and religious leader who lie to congregations to instill social change are allowed to change the word of God. Only God can command God's laws not false interpretations made by radicals. You can't have your cake for the constitution - but change the rules for God. For starters - that doesn't sound like something any God or Deity would approve.

Its also not personal. I'm just applying your own logic upon you.

I'm worry you believe in six of one, but half a dozen of the other.
