At the battle of Okinawa, an original Japanese island, 149,611 Okinawan *civilians* were either killed in the crossfire, killed by the japanese army to keep them from us, or were convinced to kill themselves and their children to prevent "capture". That's not including 110,000 Japanese military personnel that all died on a single island. And you doubt that the death toll would have been far higher while invading the Mainland?

In California, a judge can determine if you are abusing your child or not based on denying them "gender affirming care" (which the left is vague on, but usually entails hormone blockers/ hormones, and surgery- both of which cause permeant damage to a child). If the judge determines you are indeed abusing your child by not providing gender affirming care, the state can take your child away from you where they will be taken away to some "gender affirming care facility". This is one of the sickest things I have ever seen.

New Problem #2: The law bans any gun with a single "major component" which is undetectable to their standards. A "major component" includes "a frame or receiver" of a gun--which Biden just tried to redefine. The proposed rule would have had as many as 16 frames and receivers on just one Glock. So, with a simple change of definitions like we just saw, this could be weaponized into a massive gun ban.

This reminds me of a discussion I had at a party about how arbitrary speed limits are. He knew I was wrong because his wife works as an engineer for the highway department. She has book after books that set the standards for how fast the speed limit should be based on climate, road surface, banking angle, etc. This sounds sciencey, so I asked which vehicle and conditions those books were set for: a tractor trailer in the rain, or a Porsche on a dry road in the summer. To his credit, he didn't know, but he brought his wife over to find out. The answer? A tractor trailer in the rain. So, the speeds at which you and I are being pulled over for and made to pay hundreds of dollars in fines are ostensibly there because going faster would be unsafe, but in reality they're nowhere near the safety limits for the vehicles and conditions in which we actually drive. You know: bullshit.

What RFK is also getting at is "Why do we have such an increase in autism and other childhood disabilities or disorders?" It does correlate with an increase in the number of childhood vaccines over the past 20-30 years. Groups which don't follow the vaccine schedule, such as the Amish, haven't seen that increase. Is it mercury, is it one of the shots, etc.? No idea, but the correlation warrants further investigation. Most people would agree that vaccines from the 60s and 70s are relatively safe.

The last two are the bigger issue. The workers are replaced at lower wages, but because of regulation, new opportunities are not created in sufficient amounts. In a more free economy, the natural low skill workers would often become supervisors to the Immigrants, and cost of living would decrease. Further, the immigrants have kids, who go to publicly funded schools. Property zoning prevents construction of new homes or apartments. This all causes cost of living to increase. If the immigrants have a culture which is less respective of property rights, then crime goes up, which hampers the economy.

It may be semantic but I see conquest as a different behavior than property rights. Conquest seems to be more of a dominance behavior, i.e. yielding to status or power or to signals that tend to correlate with power. Property rights seem to be a territorial behavior, i.e. yielding to prior occupant. Property rights seem to be morally preferred by most people, since even conquers often appeal to a prior claim of ancestors. "We were here first."

The essays in this book present one kind of challenge to this view. Looking into the origins and histories of the three major Abrahamic religions – Judaism, Christianity and Islam – the authors find market exchange to have been important in them all. So, to take one case, volume editor Benedikt Koehler argues in one of his contributions that property rights were essential in early Christianity. Koehler notes that early Christianity specifically linked property rights and poor relief in ways quite distinct from any attitude of the prior Roman world. In particular, in the work of Ambrose of Milan, private property offered the means of redemption through the provision of poor relief. Furthermore, Koehler charts how the medieval controversy over Christ’s ownership of property was ultimately resolved in favour of such ownership by Pope John XXII in 1329.

I think it's a mistake to say that there's tension between the idea that schools should be privately run and the idea that we should force improvement of the government controlled curriculum. The fact is that government _does_ control curriculum currently, we're not in a political position to privatize education or otherwise return control of curriculum to parents *right now*, and kids and our entire culture are being harmed by this nonsense right now. In that context I think it's absolutely justified to ban stupid things _in public schools_.

"Many" are not upset. Of the user access to reddit, half are browser based. From there, the official reddit app is almost 40% of the rest of the access. Less than 10% of the user base is using a third party app, with the largest being 2%, or less than 1 million active daily users. Cutting off these apps is going to have very little impact on user numbers as most of them will either switch to the official app or desktop and the few that are so upset that they don't have an ad free app will leave permanently, those users who were using the service and costing them money is a net win for reddit.

Every single argument you could possibly make in support of the blackout applies better to reddit themselves because they actually own the thing they're turning off.

Second, there are just too many logical gates to pass through before it makes good policy sense. Assuming you end welfare, including current property tax based school funding, and the drug war, you still have the issue of immigrants increasing crime and degrading culture (bringing socialist ideals with them).

If only a fraction of the political will devoted to closing the border went to ending the welfare state we could make some progress

Keep in mind that when many of us consider open borders, it also comes with ending statewide welfare programs that could attract some unproductive types from coming in the first place. Drugs being legalized would also bring crime down as it fosters legitimate competition instead of determining market presence through violence.

Open borders will come before ending welfare programs. It will be next to impossible to end those. It will be VERY easy to open the borders.

I am fully (probably over-)educated on economics and I'm explaining to you that mass migration is on top of natural population growth - hence wage suppression. We saw this when we shamed women out of the home and into cubicles. Wage suppression.

Note that they use the term *liberal* to describe the cohort of people favoring in-home government surveillance. Ironically, in an article centered around themes of Orwellianism. What's it going to take for people to realize that's not liberalism and they're misusing the word? I just don't understand what's so fucking difficult to understand about this concept. *Liberal* and *conservative* are not antonyms. Fucking mindless NPC parrots. I've little reason to expect this survey was conducted rigorously if they can't even get their terminology straight. Please remove your head from your ass, CATO.

I don't understand, not just the willingness to accept but also the outright support in favor of invasion of privacy by government entities. That doesn't even get into the immense government bloat it would require to even attempt to monitor the hundreds of millions of feeds from every residence in the country, and that's just for a single camera in the home. Want one in every room? Triple or quadruple that at the minimum.

I do realize that there are clearly loopholes with this (i.e., a citizen who happens to be the buddy of a cop can file an allegation on behalf of the cop), but I think it would be easier to track abusers because those who make allegations will be publicly available information; and if a single individual is constantly accusing others (under the influence of police), it will be obvious for anyone who wants to investigate the accusers. However, in our current system, 'the state' can make allegations and decide to prosecute, there's no accountability. It's much harder to accuse "the state" of biasness if you can't track the individual (or group of individuals) that's being biased.
