Requiring ID online is dumb and should be resisted, people who want it (I don’t care why) should be mocked & ridiculed.

Privacy and anonymity are good.
Even if they succeed in requiring IDs for pornographic websites, they'll find other means to fulfill their sexual pleasures. The modern age of the Internet taught me that when there's a will, there's a way.
 
Actually, the UK bill of rights in 1689 did just that in fact:
I guess if you're a Protestant and meet certain conditions- do you see how this is garbage already? Also it's not a codified constitution. It can be mangled like any other law. Your entire system needs rebuilding. It's why we made our system the way we did. Yours is busted.
 
I'm seeing an awful lot of "muh UK" and "muh Democrats" but not a whole lot of alternatives to the
lets look at this objectively

what's concrete:

waltz invited the journo to the signal chat
Waltz was removed from a high clearance position and put into another high clearance position
Americans who were clear on the Houthi operations being a piracy operation with no relevance to Israel complete the piracy operation without involving Israel. America still has 2 THAAD units in Israel
Trump is visiting KSA, UAE, and Qatar
Americans have negotiated with Hamas through an intermediate to release an Israeli hostage and to agree on the structure of the ceasefire talks.

the honest answer is that retarded brownoids like the person im quoting and /pol/ retards genuinely believed that Trump was controlled by Israel and whenever I explained shit like the Houthi operation having nothing to do with Israel, these same people would shout me down and call me a kike

now that trump is doing what I said he would be doing, brownoids (who only see things in black and white) flipped from TRUMP IS ISRAELS BITCH to TRUMP IS PISSED OFF AT ISRAEL because they are retards.

people are making up all this drama and hype over normal shit
Always need to spin it in your favor which just causes more fatigue. When will you guys learn to just take an L once and awhile. It happens
 
Is Trump gonna get JFK’d for daring to not suck on the circumcised cock of Israel?
I don't think it would happen (all parties involved know Trump being in charge raises all ships; Democrats can use Trump as a symbol to fundraise like never before, etc) but if it happens, it'll be because Trump upset the Jews. I've repeatedly told everyone. The Jews are divided on how to handle the goyim. Israeli Jews want free gibs, while American Jews and some WASPs want to globohomo New World Order everything.

Israeli Jews were expecting Trump to be a lot more "forth coming", but seeing him take a nuanced take on Palestine has them getting a little scared—even if Trump is still largely aligned with their interests.

retarded hands wrote this post

i went over the objective facts and pointed out the spin. sorry the facts arent in your favor

seeing him take a nuanced take on Palestine
the "nuanced take on Palestine" being that he is negotiating with hamas directly to save american citizens, just like russia did and what israelis urged biden to do

Scary as it is to say, Big Pharma is def. the more likely culprit than Israel in the inevitable assassination. They'd kick off a civil war for the sake of their bottom dollar.

Ironically, Israel wants an intact America... it's less work for their billing/collections departments.
 
I guess if you're a Protestant and meet certain conditions- do you see how this is garbage already? Also it's not a codified constitution. It can be mangled like any other law. Your entire system needs rebuilding. It's why we made our system the way we did. Yours is busted.
England was protestant and the king was Catholic so arming specifically protestants was one of the many ways to assure he wouldn't attempt to lean on people to get the nation's religion changed. It also limited his own power considerably, and it also acknowledged that an armed populace was a good deterrent to unwanted change by the government. It also was a codified constitution, 'bill of rights' was just the name given to such at the time (like America's 'bill of rights', inspired by the UK's, becoming apart of what is now called 'The Constitution'). But like I mentioned before, because supreme power is in parliament, it's easy to change them. America can alter its constitution too, it's not untouchable, it's just a more involved process requiring both the proposal of congress and the assent of the senate. See: 18th amendment.

I also agree it needs repair, but your system was built as a mirror to it, it's just while power became evenly distributed in yours, ours got consolidated into one of the bodies. We had an executive, and two legislature bodies with their respective roles. (Whilst we lacked a supreme court, so did America to begin with, as there wasn't one to borrow; we would eventually create one, but since doing so would require Parliament sacrificing some powers, it's pretty much powerless.) To show what I mean:

President = King (UK king is purely ceremonial, no actual power in practice, some power in theory - the US president has (and had, even in 1783) more power.)
Congress = Parliament (Supremacy after the glorious revolution and English civil war (became a republic for a little while) with the combined powers of US senate + presidency + congress. Can propose laws, implement taxes, dictates military, etcetera. 'Royal assent' is just ceremonial.)
Senate = House of Lords (Members chosen by parties in parliament with some leftover hereditary seats given to bishops. Can't veto laws, only send them back to parliament for certain alterations, but will ultimately have to assent to their passing even if the alterations aren't entirely met)

This isn't to insult or belittle, it's more to point out that your system works because it was a fresh copy of a system that had worked for centuries. What happened to the UK/England in the long-term is somewhat of a cautionary tale for when the distribution of power and allocation of authority gets ignored, and the potential ramifications on the country's future. If you have autism and like history, try going down the rabbit hole of the English civil war and subsequent glorious revolution. You had a country divided on faith/ideology, an executive trying to skirt the role of the legislature without doing technically breaching the law, and sparking it by arresting members of said legislature who were colluding with an invading army. I'm sure there's a way you can interpret that to make it sound vaguely familiar :)

TLDR: Keep power divided between the senate, congress and president with centralising too much power in one or else you'll gradually lose your rights (or see them taken away faster, depending on how you view things currently). The UK's system and it's similar to America's indicates the former can be fixed but also that the latter could become just broken in unfortunate circumstances.
 
To think, apparently people on the Right’s biggest problem is that they “lack empathy” or some crap.

Is "lacks empathy" just another way of saying "won't obey the denmothers of the longhouse?" The rules based society vs great men of history thing?

"We called you racist that means you have to stop and change your behavior based on what we want you to do" and all that.
