  • The word soup from kava seems to indicate they feel, that because the president had so much power already, what’s the big deal if a little bit more gets added?

    Folks who are scholars on the topic seem to think accumulating more power to the Executive and Judicial branches to be a bad thing.

    As noted in Supreme Court rulings: The only parties who get to decide if a president is acting incorrectly would be if A. Congress successfully impeaches the president, B. They passed the supreme court’s review of what constitutes (non)presidential acts.

    In reality both of these branches have been corrupted and owned by ‘conservative’ interests.

    Rulings on SuperPACs, Citizens United, gerrymandering, presidential immunity, insurrection and more are laying the groundwork to remove additional freedoms or protections.

    So this has the result of essentially making it possible for the controlling party of these to have a literal dictator whose communications with officials can’t be reviewed or considered in prosecution.

    Folks who have a lot of experience working with legal matters are voicing concerns on this. This isn’t an appeal to authority, rather a matter of consulting folks who are experts and considering their opinions.









  • No. There’s a whole mythology that Smith alluded to. That mythology and its alleged revelation were supposedly there before smith or anyone else. Smith is a charlatan who started the myth.

    Jesus’ myth was started by alleged followers (being generous) at least 50+ years after his alleged existence.

    All of the myths attributed to yeshua are torn from other sources and are a patchwork of stories that held attention at the time.

    It’s more likely yeshua was a myth told by charlatans who needed money to keep spreading the wonderful story of a Jew who could have ruled the Roman empire but fed the poor and healed others instead.


  • If it’s possible, reproduce the claims. Until you can produce evidence of something, they are unfounded claims.

    The Heaven’s Gate cult wrote things down and had a whole group of folks that would confirm the beliefs they had.

    According to you, the burden of proof is on society.

    So I challenge you in the same way you’re attempting here.

    Prove the Heaven’s Gate cult wrong. They made very reasonable claims(according to them) and it’s up to you to prove them wrong.

    That’s what you are doing. Until you can prove someone is able to do the things in your text(s). It’s a fable. You’re still arguing in bad faith.
