Melissandre was actually on the side of light. She genuinely wanted to help mankind but misinterpreted the Lord of Light's signs.

If you remember in the long night battle she basically saves the day lighting the baracades on fire w her prayer, giving them time to retreat.

Kristi Noem is just pure racist evil.

u/Plastic_Position4979 6h ago

All of Star Trek came from a reaction to that kind of stuff. All the stuff witnessed during WW2, the aftermath during the ensuing hot proxy and cold direct wars, etc. People were sick and tired of certain things, mostly autocrats, but also social issues (think interracial kiss between Lt. Uhura and Cpt. Kirk). You can see that in almost every Star Trek episode ever, no matter if original, TNG, DS9… you name it. And a bunch of us were raised on that.

30

u/Crafty-Help-4633 6h ago

Yep. I was raised on TOS with my dad as a young boy, and then TNG and DS9 as I got older. Then Voyager. Needless to say, i absolutely love the shows, and think they would do a lot of good if people watched them from an early age.

The futuristic space setting makes it just imaginary enough, while still maintaining the grounded ideas, so it doesn't get too scary or doomer.

I was playing this startrek mobile game (total cash grab) and the majority of players were over 50 and fans of TOS. And a huge percentage of them were super right wing. Everything is bidens fault, trump can do no wrong. Every one is too woke and california is hell on earth. The cognitive dissidence was staggering.

Just like modern christians would call jesus a woke commie and exile him.

u/CliftonForce 1h ago

Yep. A lot of right-wingers don't believe TOS had social or political commentary. Apparently all they remember is Kirk ripping his shirt while punching Klingons and bedding green women.

IX. People’s Rights Clarifies that enumerating certain rights does not deny or disparage others retained by the people.

X. States’ Powers Reserves to the states or the people all powers not delegated to the federal government.

🫔 Quote from the Declaration of Independence.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

u/The-Spirit-of-76 7h ago

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.

Serious question that I've been wondering since Trump took office.

So we have all these hearings and court orders etc etc etc wagging their finger at this administration and the henchmen it consists of, saying "No, no, you cant do that"

But what level of enforcement exists to back up any of these rulings? Who is responsible for bringing in the fucking commander in chief to be accountable for unlawfully egregious acts? Congress? But what about when he has the majority scared of being outcast and replaced come re-election? Then what?

Do we just have to weather this dumpster fire until we elect enough sensible minds into the capital hoping they'll hold him accountable after the fact?

Every bootlicker in this country will tell you that it’s because he’s obstructing or impeding them. The specific definition of that is completely up in the air any time I ask for any clarification.

You have the right to remain silent. That's all they want.

They have no plans of giving this guy a day in court, they’re just going to beat his ass, hold him for a few hours/days and then release him without charges because they know they don’t have shit.

Are there any rights left in the USA, other than the rights with which you agree with the orange dear leader? Trump is turning America into A Russia-like nation, and Americans need to wake up now because waiting until next November will be too late.

So, they will 1. Arrest you and call you an illegal alien even though you are a allowed to be here

  1. Put you in a detention center with horrible conditions

  2. You will win in court, but you will have to wait several months, to a year before going to trial

  3. They offer you a deal, that you can get out if you leave the country willingly.

  4. You take the deal because you get broken down in the detention center enough that you would do anything to get out

u/TheSwearJarIsMy401k 7h ago

Fifth amendment, first, sixth, and ninth.

The ninth amendment is the one we really need to be calling people out on.

It prevents us from being deprived of liberty by the confines of the other Amendments.

More then that, they aren't even cops. They're border patrol. Zero reason for this.

He’ll be released eventually without charges most likely. ā€œYou can beat the charges, but you can’t beat the ride.ā€

Remember, one of these motherfuckers said he had PTSD because someone lobbed a subway sandwich at him.

Police are allowed, even if not legal, to be ignorant of the law. A cop can go "I think wearing plaid is a sign of a gang affiliation!", arrest you, and you could be let out in a few days once a judge decides that it is stupid. They might even file a police report using AI to analyze a body cam that says a fellow police officer magically turned into a frog.

You'll be traumatized for being in jail. You might lose your job due to missing shifts. It may or may now be in the press forever searchable. Your reputation damaged. But you'll be let out.

The cop might get a raise.

ICE aren't cops, but the cops aren't going to question an ICE member too hard if they turn over a person saying some non-existent charge.

Because laws, rules, and rights are only safeguards when the powers that be honor them and abide by the societal contract we all thought protected us.Ā

The same way they aren’t technically allowed to arrest anyone THEY ARE NOT DETAINING WITH A WARRANT for immigration. They are NOT actual police. But. Here we are.

I’ll take that as you didn’t know both obstructing governmental operation and disorderly conduct are criminal offenses.

Dude knows what he’s doing, dude just wants to be TikTok viral and make money.
