Funny how most of the same people, who support these mask bans will use this exact argument to counter anyone asking for gun bans, isn't it?
"B-but that's different because of an Amendment that was written 250 years ago!"

The discourse here today further solidified my theory that they wanna ban masks bc they fuck up the face recognition software to track us

...and then they want to take away the 1st Amendment of a lot of people, just because they don't like what those people are saying.

It's so mindboggling.

Oh yeah, for sure. Jeff was on point with that. Plus, especially because it's about a mask ban on University grounds, it's so they can way easier identify protesters on security cams.

Not really, it's always been part of the plan.

The 2nd Amendment is only an issue because it's what leftists want to control, which is an easy target for conservatives to bait outrage for, but the 1st Amendment doesn't actually matter as long as everyone agrees on the same thing, according to conservatives.

It's how it's always been.

A better way of explaining it is that if the 2nd Amendment was more regulated, and gun control was much stricter, it would not affect a majority of the people who are "outraged" about gun control, and most of them know this. They just don't care, because whatever leftists want passed, they don't because of petty culture war and sports-like tribalism.

From CNN:


Republican to vote against advancing the measure that would fund the government through September 30.

Now that the Senate has taken this procedural vote, the chamber will vote on four amendments to the government funding bill and then take a final passage vote on the measure.

These are the members of the Democratic caucus who voted to advance the measure:

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin
Senate Democratic Chief Deputy Whip Brian Schatz
Sen. Kristen Gillibrand (the chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee)
Sen. Maggie Hassan
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto
Sen. John Fetterman
Sen. Gary Peters
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen
Sen. Angus King (an independent who caucuses with Democrats)
Another kick in the balls of their voters.

Comment about that seen on Bsky:
This list is too convenient. I bet more Dems wanted it to pass and they picked Senators not up for reelection to stand for it. That's even more disgusting if true.

That's almost always how this works. Or it'll be like the same two Republicans voted against the other Republicans to look better for their constituents but if they needed an extra vote one always switches

Figured that would be the case. Thanks, Chris.
