Im a Catholic, big dog, which is why I get so angry at these policies designed to hurt people. I’ve also got Holst’s Planets Suite playing at the moment, for what it’s worth.
Hope you come around someday.
People love Jupiter but I've always been partial to Saturn, the fifth movement.

On what authority do you have to make this decision? Do some people have this authority and others do not? Why? What gives them this authority? Man? God?Leftists are wrong 100% of the time because they worship lies and ugliness instead of God and somehow believe it makes them better people.
Good talking to you roundy, hope the house is all good. Flush that water heater every once in a while!

No one has the right to tell the average person “you can’t live here.”
And this, right here, is proof positive that you don't believe in nationhood at all. You want an economic zone that's unlivable for anyone with a sense of smell.

“the U.S. is a nation of 100 or so odd pilgrims on the Mayflower and no one else” isn’t much of a mottoThere were more settlers than the Mayflower.
Even if the US were a "nation of immigrants," that doesn't necessitate that we allow the third world to use my country as a landfill for their worst and dumbest, which in every practical sense is what's happening. Just look how they kick and scream about deportations. If it were actually true that these people made America better, certainly they could make the hellholes that they came from better, no?
"I want to live here." "No." ⬅️ If you can't have that exact conversation in your country you don't have a country.

The U.S. has been the strongest nation in the world because of our commitment to multiculturalism and immigration.The US was 90% White Christian inside of living memory.

We aren’t animals, we are human beings. No developed nation on this planet is an ethnostate. Even the empires of old, from Alexander to Mansa Musa, were multicultural.That's why they were empires, not nations.
There are several ethnostates currently in existence. Israel, Turkey, Belgium (bi-ethnic) are some such. Japan is arguably a de facto ethnostate as well.
That you're this deeply committed to maintaining only the most ridiculous of the Libertarians' ideas is puzzling, to be honest. No borders, no nation. Ask any failed society.

The notion that the modern nation-state is drawn along “ethnic” lines is foolish.The notion that anything regarding building a nation needs to be "modern" or "enlightened" in the sense that you mean is a prior you haven't proven and has, in fact, been shot down by nature itself repeatedly.
And regarding "free movement" and "free association," what you really mean is the right of the third world to have access to what whites have built and maintained. Access to whites is not a right. Hope that helps.

You are saying that giving citizens rights destroys the constitution?
I'd argue it strengthened the constitution because it brought millions of people under its blanket of protection against the racist tyranny of the state governmnents. I think the red states were probably happy the feds forced them to change. Enforcing discrimination is probably the ugliest task our sister states in the south had to do
As usual, you have clear patterns of thought but oriented entirely in the wrong direction. People call you stupid on here but that's not strictly true. You're just all turned around.

I’m sorry you lost your right to discriminate against black people. Tissue?You may sneer all you like, being a leftist you are 100% wrong all of the time. You've had your worldview propped up by fake laws, fake money, fake human nature, and of course the most important piece, fake "conservatives." These last two points are rather salient as I illustrated some time back:
On 11/30/2023 at 10:17 AM, LeviF said:Modern conservatives have this erroneous notion that the general idea of liberty plus the Constitution can hold a nation together until the sun dies. The fact is that liberty can only exist in the context of shared vision of the common good. This concept was noted repeatedly by the founders. The less common the vision of "good" is, the less liberty your society (and therefore your government) may tolerate before it ceases to be functional.
In other words, you may pick two of the following: a free society, a functional society, a society in which two or more sizable factions have divergent and incompatible visions of "good."
The reality is that shared visions of the common good are often drawn along national (read: ethnic) lines. The laws passed in 1964 and 1965 attempted (and succeeded) in remaking America into something that historically cannot be called a "nation." It was the left's midgame (and the last point at which it could have been rebuffed by American politicians under ordinary processes) in the attempt to turn America from a free and functional society into something else.

And this destroyed the constitution how?Freedom of speech, association, and assembly all wiped out. Followed immediately by the authorization of the importation of a new voting public, but now it's borderline illegal to complain about it.

The Constitution is a dead letter, you say? Where have I heard that before?
On 12/6/2022 at 12:13 PM, LeviF said:Why should anyone care? The Constitution has been resting in pieces since 1964. Any blustering by leftists pretending to care about the Constitution can be ignored yet here we are on page 4.

And I wasn't being a smart ass about strategic planning.
I just posted this in another thread:
The only sketchy thing for me this season was that for the first time in 30+ years my wife decided she liked football and insisted on watching every game with me (with the 100 requisite weekly questions). Even to the point that she made me bail early on a beautiful snow hike to get home in time to see the backups play NE in the season finale. My wife is smart, fun, hot and I like her very much. But I'm still not entirely sure what I think of this unexpected development.
Ha! I have enough hobbies that my wife has no interest in. She can glom onto football whenever she wants, just not her bag. We went to one game together as newlyweds (vs. Denver, 2019). In her words, "that was fun, but I don't think I need to go to another one."
When I got to work this morning I had a chance to talk with one of my subordinates who is also a Bills fan. Apparently his fiancee has him in the doghouse for his "appalling" behavior on Sunday, after she insisted on watching the game with him at home 😂 I told him we could set up some coaching for her on marrying a Bills fan.

Which ones are more used to it?
Oh my coworkers for sure.
My wife is blissfully ignorant about football, but she does have some broad strokes down. I was watching Eagles-Commanders and halftime came, she asked if the Bills had already played. I told her they played at 6:30. She asked who they were playing. I informed her. She says, "and this is for who goes to the Super Bowl?"
Five minutes later I found myself getting pushed out the door. "You should watch it at the bar. Have fun!" 😂

Killing witnesses is the opposite of "nonviolent."
That's my point: the vast majority of the left's pets that are in prison are not nonviolent, nor are they simply "drug offenders" (though we should have a conversation about executing recalcitrant drug dealers).

Nice job, people that were pulling the strings on the old geezer! FJB and his handlers.
This is the modal "nonviolent drug offender" by the way. And the only way to stop the left from criminal justice reforming every murderer out of prison is to start executing them.
