Okay serious answer:

For me, that is:

• Post question
• Quickly realize my question is actually stupid
• Delete it to avoid embarassment

Lack of prosecution of the pedo clergy

You misunderstand.

I’m talking about: If you start legalizing vigilantism like Luigi Mangione, you also embolden far-right terrorism.

Luigi Mangione should get accquitted as an exception, but shouldn’t be the norm.

The norm should be predatory health insurance CEOs all going to prison.

As for the sex abuse in regligion, that’s separate from the issue I was taking about earlier, which is the juidicial courts system being overload; what you are taking about is the prosecutorial misconduct/corruption of the procecutor (and the police) being involved in the cover up of a major scandal.

That’s the problem, the courts are stacked with like thousands of cases. The problem is not “Why did we arrest Luigi Mangione?”, that’s not the problem, the problem is: “Why the fuck is the courts so slow?”

We need like more judges to process all the cases quickly. Like maybe need to double the number of judges, and perhaps have petit juries that rule on serveral similar cases at ones, since juries take forever to convene.

A lot of Catholic clergy out there that needs to be dealt with.

Maybe, but I don’t think there should be a “You can kill whoever as long as its a bad person” broad exception. Its should be a case-by-case basis. If you pass a law that makes that okay, sure, you can get more Luigis, but I’m sure the number of Trans people and PoC being lynched also goes up.

It’s a double edge sword.

I mean yea. ICE doesn’t care, but at least if a citizen gets disappeared, they get a Wikipedia page and news coverage out of it. Without citizenship, there is literally zero press coverage.

I mean that’s what jail is for.

Think about it this way. If a young adult (like 18 year old) kills a parent as revenge for getting abused as a kid, do you think this person would just get to move freely before trial?

Sure, I’d also sympathize with this young adult, and the parent deserve to die for being an abusive piece of shit, but that doesn’t mean this person can just go wandering around the city.

I literally obtained derivative citizenship. I never even took an oath.

General Requirements for Automatic Acquisition of Citizenship after Birth

The Child Citizenship Act of 2000 (CCA) amended INA 320 and removed INA 321 to create only one statutory provision and method for children in the United States to automatically acquire citizenship after birth. According to INA 320, a child born outside of the United States automatically becomes a U.S. citizen when all of the following conditions have been met on or after February 27, 2001

• The person is a child of a parent who is a U.S. citizen by birth or through naturalization (including an adoptive parent);
• The child is under 18 years of age
• The child is a lawful permanent resident (LPR)
• The child is residing in the United States in the legal and physical custody of the U.S. citizen parent.

There is no specific order in which the conditions of the law must be satisfied for citizenship, so long as all conditions are met at a single point in time before the child’s 18th birthday.

Although this part is concerning:

A person born outside the United States is presumed to be an alien. As such, the person claiming U.S. citizenship has the burden of proof to establish by a preponderance of the evidence that they have met all requirements for citizenship.

Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_Citizenship_Act_of_2000

There are some South Korean Adoptees who never became US citizen because the adoptive parents never applied, which is why this law was passed to make it automatic.

Children adopted by US Citizen parents automatically become US citizen upon adoption papetwork is finalized and uppn arrival in the US.

Adopted Children also become automatic US Citizen if, while they are Lawful permanent Resident and under 18 years old, one of their adoptive parents become a US citizen.

So this doesn’t make much sense unless of very rare circumstance of the parents bringing in a kid and then not naturalize until the kid is already 18.

How does the kid not have citizenship tho? Green card holders under 18 automatically have citizenship if a parent become a citizen. Did the trump voter parent naturalize after the kid turned 18?

I remember reading an old news article where a man from China stayed awake for 11 days to watch football and he died.

I don’t know how the guy in China deliberately went 11 days without any sleep at all to watch a football game.

After reading the comments, I’m also wondering how he stayed up for so long.

I speculating it could be some sort of drugs keeping him up.

China is a society that, like many Asian countries, have a very negative view of drugs due to British colonialism, so its possible that there was drug use involved and it was covered up to avoid losing “face” to the family.

Will there even be a specter of fair and free elections for POTUS in the future? (Doubtful)

There will be free elections, eventually.

After a bloody conflict on the streets, that is.

Traitors have stolen the country and the US is in need of a second American Revolution.

Kamala Harris’s husband was “Second Gentleman”, so I’ll assume yes.

Today? No, probably not in the near future.

Maybe in the 2040s we’ll see a gay/lesbian person become US president, but not 2028.

Remember, there was a long gap betweeen 1965 Civil Right Act and Barack Obama becoming president.

And Remember, the Obergefell ruling and Respect for Marriage Act are still very recent (2015 and 2022, respectively), and might even get overturned, which indicates that the country is still not ready to accept gay/lesbian people, especially into positions of power.

Just look at the recent “DEI” outcry.

Jurors would weight in feelings over facts.

Which means, yes, Mangione gets acquitted.

But also possibly acquitals the when a cop murders someone, or when a group of white men chases down an unarmed black man and shoots him.

Possibly even some mass shooters, if they were white, because they’d be viewed as a “troubled youth” rather than a cold hearted killer.

Nullification goes both ways.

And if the accused is someone the jurors don’t like, its possible, with the idea of nullification in mind, they’d be more willing to just overlook the facts and convict based on “gut feeling”.

Because, what adding nullification to the jury instructions is doing, is that you are instructing the jurors to become not just the finder of facts but also the finder of law.

Off topic, but: Did you use voice to text on this comment? 😅

The answer is: We’re fucked.

People were warned of mass surveillance, and here we are, cameras everywhere, over the entire world. Everything is tracked. Same thing will happen to paper money and coins.

beggers,homeless ppl, panhandlers… are all doomed

In China, they have Wechat Wallet that people can give money to homeless people. Even homeless people have phones.

cashless societies are nothing but a nasty techbro dream.

It is nasty and dystopian, I agree. But its not really a fantasy anymore, its real, the dystopian future is on the horizon. Soon, it’d be too late to stop the dystopia.

At first, mass surveillance cameras is only in China, but then even supposed “democracies” like the UK have millions of cameras. Then China became mostly cashless, that will also eventually happen to western countries.

The dystopia is coming. You can’t stop it.

Okay so. Say. There is 2 weeks without power, sudden and unannounced, unpredicted power outage. How will you get food and stuff?

So if people can’t get essential stuff, there would be fear, and with fear, riots are likely to happen. Doesn’t matter how “civilized” or “developed” a country is, everyone has their breaking point.

There’s too much lies in the world, I kinda developed a sort of “solipcistic” view of the world.

If I never witnessed it, I categorize it as “potentially false”.

Of course, the entire news could be just fabricated. Nobody can tell for sure.

Anything beyond my immediate sorroundings could just be a stage. I could be in a truman show with everything I see being a deception, or in other terms “propaganda”.

I’m not saying that everything isn’t real, I just feel like that possibility should be entertained, to keep in mind as a potential possible explanation of what appears to be reality. Just as how a nation can lie to its people about reality, even the people closest to you, your parents, could also just be liars as well.

People never question if they are, in fact, the biological children of their parents, and just assume they are. That is another form of “propaganda”. People just accept their parent’s words as truth.

Propaganda is certainly everywhere. You cannot be sure what is real, other than the fact that “you” exist, in some form.
