May 18, 20232 yr White male landowners used these rights to subjugate the rights of everyone else. Even though nowadays it sounds absurd, for hundreds of years, American slavery was justified as having a biblical basis... After the Civil War, when slavery was no longer acceptable, Jim Crow laws and segregation took over with another veil of religious freedom and religious liberty justifications. It was in Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896 that the Supreme Court upheld the "separate but equal” doctrine that had been used to support segregation and Jim Crow laws. The "separate but equal” doctrine was based on a biblical interpretation that the races were not supposed to "mix.” Again, religious freedom and religious liberty were used to justify the actions of the group in power... https://www.americanbar.org/groups/crsj/publications/human_rights_magazine_home/intersection-of-lgbtq-rights-and-religious-freedom/not-those-people/ @Mike31mt They failed to cover this in that stellar WV education you received?

May 18, 20232 yr This law regarding healthcare is completely political and has no practical effect from what I can see. The government is not currently compelling doctors to perform any procedures against their will, and never has. And outside of requiring treatment of ER patients when receiving government funds, and of course civil rights laws requiring doctors not to discriminate based on protected class, no doctor is being forced to see any patients. My oldest boys were delivered at a Catholic hospital. This hospital, and the OB-GYN my wife was seeing which was attached to the hospital, specifically did not provide certain treatments that "go against" Catholic doctrine such as prescribing birth control or even performing tubal ligations after caesarian births. Hospitals and health providers have long been able to operate according to their own codes of ethics, many derived from religious beliefs. All this law is doing is setting up a stupid strawman to knock down. It's trying to paint this image that liberals are somehow holding doctors hostage and forcing them to perform sex change operations on 10-year-olds. Then DeSantis can hold it up and say "see, I protected you from the boogeyman!" even though the boogeyman doesn't exist. It's pure politics, nothing more.

May 18, 20232 yr For reference: https://www.kpcc.org/2016-02-09/ob-gyn-s-navigate-catholic-hospital-s-ethical-rule This SB 1580 law is an unnecessary law passed by someone who wants a strawman to knock down. Nothing more. And to be sure, liberals are stupid for giving it more air than it needs.

May 18, 20232 yr Author 14 minutes ago, toolg said: DeSantis's folly just cost Florida $1 billion and 2,000 jobs. Or maybe it has something to do with the cost-cutting moves that Disney announced back in February? Quote The latest round of job cuts will impact ESPN, Disney's entertainment division, Disney Parks, and its Experiences and Product division as part of a larger workforce reduction plan announced in February by chief executive Bob Iger in an aim to save $5.5 billion in costs, the company said. The company had suspended its dividend payments during the pandemic, but Iger announced in February that he expects them to return. Step one: create an economy that's so bad that dozens of the biggest corporations announce massive layoffs Step two: Get the dishonest media to loosely link the cost cutting moves at Disney to their ongoing feud with Desantis to damage him politically. Step three (easiest step): Get mentally ill liberals like toolg to believe it without question.

Quote Citing "changing business conditions” and the return of CEO Bob Iger, Josh D’Amaro, chairman of Disney’s parks, experiences and products division, penned a memo to employees Thursday, announcing that the company will not move forward with construction of the campus and will no longer be asking more than 2,000 California-based employees to relocate to Florida.
May 18, 20232 yr The February announcement was about layoffs. This is the cancellation of a project because Florida has suddenly become specifically hostile to Disney. Action have consequences. DeSantis just cost the state thousands of jobs and over the life of that expansion probably billions in tax revenue.

You forgot losing billions in tax revenue that could be used for oh I don't know, education, infrastructure, other actual tangible useful things. But of course that's not important, only owning the libs is. The state is is disarray, other companies taking note but hey at least a few people from CA didn't move there! And hey, not like the cost of living in florida hasn't doubled in the last year with insurance rates skyrocketing and insurance companies leaving the state, at least he owned the libs!

For decades the sign always said 'Devo' Of course, as effed up as PA is, it is no FLA.
