- Comment on At Justice Alito’s House, a ‘Stop the Steal’ Symbol on Display as the Supreme Court was considering an election case. 1 day ago:
After the 2020 presidential election, as some Trump supporters falsely claimed that President Biden had stolen the office, many of them displayed a startling symbol outside their homes, on their cars and in online posts: an upside-down American flag.
One of the homes flying an inverted flag during that time was the residence of Supreme Court Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., in Alexandria, Va., according to photographs and interviews with neighbors.
The upside-down flag was aloft on Jan. 17, 2021, the images showed. President Donald J. Trump’s supporters, including some brandishing the same symbol, had rioted at the Capitol a little over a week before. Mr. Biden’s inauguration was three days away. Alarmed neighbors snapped photographs, some of which were recently obtained by The New York Times. Word of the flag filtered back to the court, people who worked there said in interviews.
Traitorous fascist

Sort of. The response to that was totally uncalled for. And they just kept digging when they had a chance to turn it around.

They were, yes. Their social media Watergate really upended them for me. The events since and now, this is all downhill. Barring a complete reversal of corporate attitude, I will probably not be back.

Yes all the right wing cruelty laws are written this way (or presented this way). If one had to explain it to a child it would sound very common sense.
But, of course, that is not the point of the law at all.

“reading the manual” has become a True Concept for me. Like a big part of life that most people are ignorant or just unaware of. Once upon a time, you kids, there was only manuals. That’s all we had to figure out how to get the doowhacky to go in the whatsits.

- Comment on Is it true that addicts never stop being addicts, they just replace their addiction? 4 weeks ago:
No. It’s not true.
As a general consensus, it is true that addicts are always addicts (who are hopefully recovering), but it isn’t the case that they always replace it with another addiction.
They usually do something else, yes, and they can get way into whatever just like anyone, but not for long, or more than anyone else.
Most people who stop drinking and drugs just find other interests and things to do.
