Politics 7 months, 3 weeks agoI’m afraid the situation is worse than most of you realize. Here’s a “what if” for you: Forget rigging the election by all the ways people are discussing. What if he declares a national emergency and simply refuses to leave office? He already ignores the law and is on the verge of defying court orders, and all the means of enforcement come under…[Read more]

PopeBeanie replied to the topic SCOTUS Gone Rogue, Politically & Ideologically in the forum
Politics 8 months, 2 weeks agoI thought I could finally catch up on sleep and relax a bit, but ran into this Legal AF video explaining how the SCOTUS partisan takeover has been in the cards for decades. It’s all believable to me, but I’ve never been a competent student of history, so I’m interested in any criticisms of what’s presented in this video. It feels like…[Read more]

Politics 9 months agoFellow Unbelievers,
Armin Navabi’s Atheist Republic site on YouTube is on fire about the whole Charlie Kirk story!
Armin is extensively examining Kirk’s videos to find out if the accusations made about his views are correct. So far, he has found that while Charlie didn’t favor Homosexuality or Transgenderism as a Christian, Kirk had no…[Read more]

Politics 9 months, 1 week agoFellow Unbelievers,
Here, Armin Navabi of Atheist Republic highlights the deranged people who are celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder.
All the worst from the Woke Left and the Woke Right, Islamists, Anti-Zionists, Antisemites, and people on BlueSky compiling a list of others to go after. Like I said, the collateral damage always goes beyond the…[Read more]

Politics 9 months, 1 week agoFellow Unbelievers,
Charlie Kirk may have made lame arguments and may have never conceded he was ever wrong, but that’s no reason to get murdered.
We should all remember this because what happened to Charlie Kirk can also happen to any Atheist anywhere…and it too often does.
And dancing on the graves of the murdered like TicTok-ers and…[Read more]

I realized this while watching this awesome episode on bacteria phages, which are viruses that prey only on bacteria. I start the hour long episode more than halfway in, and it’s not important to watch any further than their discussion on gain of function:
Wait…Don’t watch all of a video about a medical regimen that has to be c…[Read more]

Wannabee authoritarians can “take over” institutions by corrupting them first, then claim it’s proof that they need to eliminate or rebuild them. It’s a wrecking ball approach.
