Do you think woke and nazi are equal insults? Also, "used to" and "accuse"? As if their aren't literally two dozen topics on CE right now calling people nazis.

They aren't equal as insults, but I think the poster was drawing attention to the pattern of using a term wildly inappropriately.

I don't see the "Two dozen topics" you mention - I *do* see quite a few posts where people are saying actions of a person/group have similarities to actions undertaken by Nazis. Do you believe that's a bad thing?

Hmm, how does your answer change depending on the answer?

If an area is under some degree of government oversight, I'd say the residents have "less of a voice" ...

I might be biased though, as almost all instances of this that I've known personally have been rather blatant attempts at discrimination...

So I couldn't find any follow up/damage control from him in my quick search, but did find these gems:

"Now, I should say that hunger is a relative term," added Drazkowski, 58. "I had a cereal bar for breakfast. I guess I'm hungry now."

Drazkowski called the bill "pure socialism," adding, "This is about the government dictating to kids what they're going to eat and how much theyre going to eat."
He said any additional funding should go to improve overall education. "That's what our schools are for," he said.

I'm curious which funding bills for education he's voted for /s

I didn't realize there had been a (small) step forward before this...

Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, state lawmakers passed a Fetal Heartbeat Bill, which banned abortions after a heartbeat was detected. But, in January, the South Carolina Supreme Court blocked the abortion ban, deciding that it limited a woman's right to privacy and violated the
state's constitution.

Of course this drove them into the frenzy that led to this proposed bill...

Eliminating this requirement would restore decision-making to parents concerning their children, the bill states. Rep. Rebecca Burkes, R-Lowell, the bills primary sponsor, repeated this on the House floor Feb. 22.
Rep. Andrew Collins, D-Little Rock, took issue with this clause.
Parents have to sign off [on the permit] under the current law, he said. If this passes, the parents wont have to sign off, and I think thats a pretty important distinction.

How would it restore decision making to parents if the parents don't have to sign off (the child can do it independently)?

The title and OP of this thread for one. His disability status is completely irrelevant to this story.

You forgot/ignored my first question (So to be clear, the only thing that defines if the position has value is whether they hired someone? Like, nothing else a person in that position does matters?) and didn't actually answer the second. Neither the thread title nor OP's post said "somebody being disabled means they can do no wrong". They included it because Musk brought it up as a way to dismiss the issue ("claimed as his excuse that he had a disability that kept him from typing). Why did you make the leap from that to "people saying disabled people can do no wrong"?

I mean Elon has a point. Guy claims he's hiring manager of a department that hasn't hired in 4 months. Sounds like a non value added position to me.

So to be clear, the only thing that defines if the position has value is whether they hired someone? Like, nothing else a person in that position does matters?



Also it's incredibly harmful to imply that just because someone is disabled, they can't do anything wrong. Equality doesn't mean coddling.

Who exactly said "someone is disable therefore they can't do anything wrong"?

Important to be specific on this.

The SC wouldn't be prohibiting interracial marriage. They would be overturning Loving v. Virginia. This would take the question of interracial marriage back to the states.

And THEN the MAGA states would pounce.

Also I think the Respect for Marriage Act was mentioned earlier.

A state making a law banning same-sex marriage or interracial marriage would NOT be in violation of the RfMA.

Because that law says that all states must recognize any marriage that took place in a state where the marriage was legal.

So a state banning certain marriages would have to respect that kind of marriage from someone out of state, but they can still prevent new marriages from being recognized AND declare marriages that took place in their state as unrecognized.

I'm surprised that a state law banning homosexual marriage hasn't been challenged and passed up the courts to the SC yet...
