Because Yaweh was originally male.

God is nonbiological so no gender. Or all genders. If God is in everything, then there are some bacteria with 23 or so sexes, so God possesses genders beyond the scope of human consciousness.

Banning investors from buying singles family homes is definitely a plus, but I get nervous when I hear ‘deregulation’.

Taft was a senator, the President, and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He was very active in busting up monopolies. He was responsible for the direct elections of senators. He was a dedicated jurist and a true American intellectual. But the only thing he gets rembered for is being 300lbs. And having a bigger bathtub installed in the White House.

Is that Taft in the S tier? And Teddy Roosevelt? Funny considering they had a falling out in 1912(?). Taft set a high bar for President. Probably the 2nd best President of the 20th century (FDR being the 1st). Back when the US had decent politicians.

Have you SEEN what “free range” humans eat? At least with factory farms you have nutritional standards.

The fight was lost in the Supreme Court. 42 USC §1988 was explicitly set up to grant civil rights attorneys fees if they won their claim (and it costs a lot to prosecute a civil rights claim). But lawyers and firms would accept winnable civil rights cases on the basis that they would eventually get paid. That came to a halt in 2001 in 532 US 598, decided on May 2001, which talked about the rights of the “prevailing party” to be paid. In function, it killed civil rights litigation.

The police shooting people because they have or might have guns is a clear violation of the 2nd amendment right to carry. (ACLU never got involved because they don’t take 2nd amendment cases).

But here’s the thing. Cops don’t arrest right wing armed protesters. Why do you think that is? Cops are willing to shoot unarmed protesters in wheelchairs, but fail to move on a fat out of shape protestor with an AR-15. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/sep/25/protests-houston-police-shoot-unarmed-man-wheelchair

“Winning” requires multiple fronts, from civil resistance and disobedience, to openly carrying protests, to voting, to boycotts, to lawsuits, to just simply speaking out when something isn’t right. And proposing alternative solutions.

Armed minorities are harder to suppress.

Back in the day you had Hannah Montana Linux. And Satanic Linux (which had to be installed over Christian Linux). Loads of OSes were just rebranded Ubuntu. Trump OS should be all gold and a rebrand of Red Star (only replacing the boot logo and wallpaper).

Running Fedora, was raised Presbyterian. 🤯

Whine ineffectually?

We’re living in the world created by the guys from Weird Science.

Strictly speaking, Christian values directly oppose treating immigrants poorly. Or as second class citizens. Explicitly stated in the old and new testament. You know, Biblical law that we ‘should’ all be following.

On the other hand, “It’s easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven.” And “Love of money is the root of all evil.” Doesn’t seem to be cited by Prosperity Christians.

Dr. Octavius, Doom, and Strange are all legit doctors. That being said, Strange is kind of an asshole, and Doom would outright murder you if you disobeyed his treatment plan. Octavius would be great for prosthetics, tho.

That being said, Dr Doom is an outright genius in all fields and I’d trust him implicitly, except in matters of politics or human resources.

Remember the days when sex between consenting adults was a scandal?
