How many times have their ideas about the "necessity of protocol" and "not giving the right an excuse to escalate" been disproven by the right constantly escalating no matter how good the liberals behave? And yet every time they fall back to the same idiotic dogma about not escalating because "oh no what will the right wingers do???". Pathetic

    I always thought this line of thinking was lib shit because of the Kayfabe aspect to our government, and how it wouldn't behoove either party to outright ban anything so controversial,

    But after the last week, it turns out that they straight up are going to make a play for it.

    Between this, and the bad guess that Russia wouldn't invade Ukraine, leftists have taken a couple of licks.

      Yeah same, I assumed SCOTUS wouldn't want to blow their legitimacy on what is to them a useful wedge issue. But yeah looks like they're fucking true believers, or something.
