Springfield Ohio Sheriff’s Lieutenant Says He Won’t Protect Dems
  • You're not accounting for people who are restrained from being who they truly are or who they want to be by the perceived consequences until they're intoxicated and don't care about the consequences anymore. Bigots who might only say bigoted things in "safe" company unless they drink too much aren't virtuous people holding back intrusive thoughts. They are bigots who finally feel free to do so.

  • Springfield Ohio Sheriff’s Lieutenant Says He Won’t Protect Dems
  • According to WHIO, who obtained an “investigative file” and communications within the office, Rodgers said he was prescribed sleep aids and that his ‘out of character’ actions were a “documented side effect.”

    Ah, the classic Roseanne defense. Most people don't start spewing hate under the influence of medication if they don't normally use that kind of language when they're sober.

  • Chat GPT will openly admits it uses copyrighted works without permission
  • This isn't a smoking gun.

    You can't trust that ChatGPT is telling the truth, but also the use of copyrighted material is acceptable under a fair use standard written into US copyright law. Whether it is fair use or not is up to a court to decide, but "without permission" doesn't automatically mean "illegally."

  • After 20 years, World of Warcraft will now let players do solo raids
  • That's the part I always hated. It was hostile towards people who liked the lore but didn't want to group up with some guy named LaserButt4000 who didn't want to go to the same dungeon as you, but was happy to get your rare loot in a bad roll of the dice.

    Private servers with scaling for dungeon soloing were a godsend. WoW is actually awesome as a single player game. It's unfortunate the devs never realized that.

  • Why women or minorities would vote R is just completely beyond me
  • This is a misleading perspective. Why would you need to codify "settled law?" SCOTUS had ruled that it was a constitutional right already so you wouldn't need a separate law.

    You're also ignoring Casey. It wasn't just Roe.

    They also don't typically say they're "pro-abortion."

    The infographic states "facts" that weren't relevant at the time.

  • Alabama High School Football Player Dies After Sustaining Head Injury
  • I'd suggest maybe we don't let kids give each other chronic traumatic encephalopathy, and the occasional death, for our entertainment, but George, the rage-filled authoritarian boomer, played high school football, and he turned out great!

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Malice and arrogant ignorance can have the same functional result and at least malice would involve them being honest with themselves. Arrogant ignorance is worse because they're judging and harassing you with their ignorance but think they're saving your soul.

  • US colleges revise rules on free speech in hopes of containing anti-war demonstrations
  • Some of the universities mentioned in the article are public institutions. SCOTUS held in Healy v James that the 1st Amendment applies to public universities. So some of the actions could be considered 1st Amendment violations.

  • US colleges revise rules on free speech in hopes of containing anti-war demonstrations
  • That's a false dilemma. There's a middle ground between allowing only approved speech and allowing any speech whatsoever. And we already make that distinction. Fascists don't believe in free speech and threaten the rights of others through threats of violence, which isn't protected speech. Likewise fraud, libel, slander, blackmail, false advertising, and CSAM aren't protected and are considered harmful.
