      Saying that with no real idea of what your ideology forces on people being made to have children doesn’t make you a good guy. Life ain’t that simple.
      Also, ‘life’ takes on a different meaning when you remove the religious idea of a soul. Not even universally religious in concept or meaning either. Very specific to only certain forms of Christianity. This ruling is literally the imposition of a specific religious interpretation of life on the rest of the public. A ruling that then justifies sometimes endangering and other times burdening the lives of women who might not be able to take care of the kids in a society that is very strongly against any "entitlements" to help the women take care of children being forced into the world.
      Whole thing is a joke. A very bad one from people who very rarely have to deal with the consequences.

      @@cristocastillo710 roe was a decision by the us supreme court protecting the rights to people having abortions, so that none of the states could pass a state-wide law against it. casey provided a system for restrictions of abortions so long as they don't provide an "undue burden" (it was still something that was used to discourage people from getting abortions though as far as i know)
      with those overruled, states can now effectively make abortions illegal in their perimeters. there were states that tried to make abortions as inaccessible as possible before but with roe overturned they've made it a straight up felony in many places. they're just denying healthcare in the typical american way at this point. the penalties for it in states like alabama are the same or even worse than those for sexual violence which just makes me sick.

    My favorite part of originalism is that its adherents assume they are time-travelling mind readers capable of synthesizing the consensus of deliberative bodies comprised of dozens of people while simultaneously divining the metaphysically true interpretation that should be adopted for whatever provisions may have been agreed to specifically _because_ of their ambiguity.

    • @saine-grey
      @saine-grey Год назад +3

      Independent of whether or not originalism is good or not, we do have a number of documents from the drafters of the constitution called the federalist papers that talk about their specific intent on a lot of the wording of what they wrote. There are also plenty of surviving newspapers and documents from the time period, it's not like it was so long ago it's ancient history. It's not like originalists are completely guessing at what their intentions were when they wrote the constitution.

    • @jackbarman7063
      @jackbarman7063 11 месяцев назад +3

      There is also the problem of the subject that we are trying to identify the meaning and intent of. How narrowly or broadly are we supposed to apply the words and principles in the law. The legislature may have written a (vaguely worded) law to only protect one group of people that they saw as vulnerable, so by one originalist interpretation that group is the only one that the law protects. But that same legislature may have thought that group needed special protection because they weren’t being treated equally and passed that law because they thought promoting and furthering equal treatment and protection for people who are vulnerable was important. So another originalist interpretation of the same law and text would extend those protections to other groups as well.
      Don’t even get me started on how broadly or narrowly “history and tradition” is supposed to be understood or even why that’s part of the test in the first place for substantive due process.

I give you example that will give light to what this mean - in continental school of law, we have something called "fiction of rational legislator" that insist that every lawyer should interpret every law act as something logic and something that was created in order to achive something. Schmidt would said, in accordance with "political theology" that "rational legislator" as we call him (even if we knoe that just fiction) is just secularized concept of Gods infinite wisdom, that create only rational and logical law.
      The other clear example of "secularized religious teaching" is the importance of "human dignity" in constitutional law. Modern concept of human dignity of every person, that can't be removed from anyone, can be traced directly to catholic idea of personalism.

I used to think, for example, my granny was 'superreligious' because she went to church several times a week and had the whole Jesus and Mary-themed interior design going on. As a teenager though, I asked her why she believed all that stuff and she answered that she actually didn't really care much for the scripture or the priest. She just really liked having a community to be a part of. Makes ya think about the intentionality of actions.

I'm part of a local social justice group (have been for the last couple years, I'm on the leadership team this year!), and we're making great strides in our community on the judicial side of things: every progressive judge we backed in the primaries made it to the general election ticket for this fall 🎉. And since so many people sleep on judicial races (yet judges have more direct impact on people's lives than any other elected official!), we can make a big difference in the outcome just by getting out and knocking on doors. Plus our other political work we're doing (a lot of non-partisan, class-focused coalition building in rural parts of the state).

I think we get so stuck within our little world that we forget how to take a step back and look at the whole issue. This also helped clarify some of my personal confusion with what is happening.

    The first episode we watched was the one on Suicide and Mental Health. I will never be able to fully express my gratitude for that video. Not only did it help my husband better understand what I go through, it helped me finally feel comfortable talking about my battle with suicidal thoughts and feelings.

    Ugh stupid misread. The Second Amendment is about ARMING BEARS. Not having firearms, or arms of bears. You see, a nation cannot defend itself without a Bear Army. That's why the Soviets were so dangerous - their symbol was the bear, and their vodka-powered Bear Army was immensely dangerous.
    Also a navy comprised of sharks with frikkin' laser beams on their heads is good too. A Laser-Shark Navy to defend your shores is epic.

      America in 1776 wasn't a great place for the majority of the people who lived there. That's not a controversial statement. It was a better place in 1876, and even better than that in 1976. The process of making it a better country again in 2076, like in the privous years, comes down to critizing the things you feel are wrong, proposing solutions, and getting them put into law. That's not hating the country. It's self improvement on the national scale.
      Basically, look at it this way. Imagine someone saying Lincoln hated america because he claimed that slavery was bad when slavery was written into the constitution. That someone would be wrong, right? Lincoln clearly loved america, despite wanting to change it.
