| Topic | "Twitter can ban whoever they want, they're a private business" |
| ThePieReborn 01/09/21 2:40:43 PM #10 | The freedom of speech angle isn't the only way the characterization is wrong. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | "Twitter can ban whoever they want, they're a private business" |
| ThePieReborn 01/09/21 2:38:01 PM #3 | Yes? That doesn't change the private nature (that is, not owned/operated by the government) of the company. It having shareholders and its shares being available to the public for trade does not change that characterization. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Interesting article on the money behind organizing Wednesday's events |
| ThePieReborn 01/09/21 11:00:56 AM #4 | Yeah, the legal profession's involvement (let alone the fact that these are attorneys general) in... all of this, for lack of a more definite term, is absolutely shameful. And that's about the kindest description it can be given. A lot of people need to be held accountable, and the Federalist Society needs to either actually come to Jesus or be brought to heel. Because that's the progenitor for much of this. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 01/09/21 1:18:57 AM #13 | Ruvan22 posted... That's the part (or one) I don't get - if Trump gets 230 repealed, wouldn't Parler be liable for all the posts it's users make?That is precisely what would happen if Section 230 would be straight up repealed. And, considering its userbase, the owner/s would very quickly become intimately familiar with the pitfalls of repealing Section 230. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | I have to take this practice LSAT, but I'm nervous |
| ThePieReborn 01/08/21 7:06:40 PM #9 | I don't say that as discouragement, but chances are your first practice test is not going to be good. The LSAT is likely different from what you've done before test-taking-wise, and if you are going the selfstudy route like I did, it's going to be an at times frustrating trek. It takes repetition to start seeing the patterns and tip-offs in questions. Frankly, I don't think it's even remotely reflective of the expectations in law school. I knew three people who scored in the 170s, and they ended up a full quartile below me in our first year and third year ranks. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | I have to take this practice LSAT, but I'm nervous |
| ThePieReborn 01/08/21 6:55:30 PM #5 | So, for the record, shooting for a 165 from the outset, without studying, is not a good way to approach it. Because I got a 166 as my second actual score. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | "Saying that Trump is the worst president is ignorant of history." |
| ThePieReborn 01/06/21 10:51:13 PM #23 | Prior to today, I would have agreed with the sentiment of the quote in the topic title. But this goes beyond the malfeasance demonstrated by Buchanan's sitting on his hands (not withstanding whether there was anything to do; I still treat the throwing up the hands as a failure on its own) or by Johnson's handling of Reconstruction. This is its own class. It's inexcusable. Everyone who has encouraged this behavior, expressly or tacitly, by a sitting president needs to be held accountable. This date should follow their names for the rest of their lives and be carved as the only epitaph on their tombstones to remind everyone who ever lays eyes upon it that they fostered every iota of the chipping away at fundamental norms and tradition that have ensured orderly transitions of power in this country since its inception. They own this. They made this monster. They grew it. They nurtured it. And this is what they've wrought. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 01/06/21 9:02:14 AM #18 | Kolibri X posted... They're not even allowing evidentiary hearings.Because nigh every case could be, and was, rejected because they failed to make a claim for which relief may be granted. Or in less obscure terms, when taking the claims as true on their face, the plaintiffs were not entitled to relief. Evidentiary hearings don't change an outcome like that, because 12(b)(6) dismissals are not concerned with the weight of evidence. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
