How about we abort the phrase "states' rights"? Federalism & decentralization are tools to keep governments in check. This does not mean (nor should it ever be taken as validation of the idea that) states have rights. "States' rights" is at its core a form of collectivism.

@checkmatestate I don't think that's the sticking point. It sure ain't mine. The real issue is in building a panopticon that monitors & authorizes your movements. Given how quickly government encroachment is, we need to be pushing back on that hard.

FTR I don't think Dave is a white nationalist. He just simps for them hard - and consistently.

@BX_Logan @ARossP I had no idea who the guy was until I heard him calling me a white nationalist on a podcast and saw he blocked me. I’m happy to give him a chance to defend those absurd accusations.

Assume for argument sake that Barrack Obama is bisexual. Honestly, who gives a fuck? No, really. Don't you have millions of things to worry your damn self over?? Grow the fsck up.

@davidhogg111 Letting fear define freedom means you will only ever live in fear, and never have freedom. You act like guns are the problem, but they can not pull their own triggers. By misidentifying the cause of violence, you will never reduce violence.

Imagine thinking a torpedo is no danger to your ship just because it's off the starboard side. That's how too many in the LP act towards right entryists. I stand as follows: "Reject bigotry as irrational and repugnant." "Racism is simply an ugly form of collectivism."
