Mr. Dickey does a great job explaining where this idea came from in his book The Unidentified. I recommend it, if you’re interested in lost colonies/cities like Atlantis, Lemuria, etc…

I'm an gonna give you an question, thought you might not see it this late.

What about conspiracy theories that are true? Stuff like MK Ultra, the Lab Origin for COVID and so on. People were discredited and banned over this kind of stuff, only to be proven true later.

The counter to any right-wing attack on worker solidarity is "why would railroad bosses grind transportation to a halt rather than give their workers sick leave?", not "Biden moves in mysterious ways."

The line isnt there anymore. SCOTUS is now a captured regulatory agency.

You have to have integrity and honor to keep an oath, so what do you think?

Not the experts but since it seems AMA is over I'll give the impression I get:

Repealing Roe vs Wade and similar "extreme" decisions are simply a reversion to colonial era America. This is this thus easier to justify than ISLT which has never once been a thing in the history of America.

While we might get the impression the stacked SC is free to do whatever it wants, they do need to at least have a "reason" for their actions. And "it's a reversion to how things were when the constitution was written" won't be a valid one this time.

Your intro mentions “collecting unusual objects,” which one can assume are physical things.

Are these objects linked to conspiracy theories? Like, say, chem trail detector goggles? 😎 If so, please share tales of some of your prized ones!

What's the most insane theory you've heard? You can nutshell it I know how detailed some of these theories can get.

This totally reeks of Alberta - aka: The Province of North Texas.

Saskatoon is a city in the province of Saskatchewan. Also a lovely berry

It's not just recently that the Supreme Court has been that way. They often have worked backward from the outcome they desired, it's how you get originalism and textualism as legal theories. The only thing that stops them from doing something as egregious as what you are saying is them trying to maintain the legitimacy of the Supreme Court. There is theoretically a line that the Supreme Court could cross in which state and federal governments would just say, "No, you've overstepped too far and we're not going to listen to that decision." The Supreme Court has no way to enforce its own decisions, it has to rely on other branches agreeing that its decisions are legitimate to enforce their decisions.

It sounds counter intuitive that federal elections need hundreds of state laws to ensure a fair execution. Will the US voting laws need to be simplified or made more concise?

Biden and the Democrats completely fucked this up - but what of the Republicans that would have essentially given them nothing at all? I can't pretend to understand the Democrat strategy here - I don't understand why they didn't force more favorable conditions on the railways if they have the power to do so in this limited situation.

But if they did nothing - then they really got nothing done right? And even if they did nothing (thus paving the way for the strike), can you imagine the attacks by Republicans when the country started losing billions of dollars caused by lost transportation?

I won't say they did right, but they got something done, and more than what the opposition was going to do. Which makes zero sense when you think of how much of their rich backers would lose of the strike did happen.

A belief that is based upon shadow evidence, not direct evidence with a pinch of a similar incident or organization whose truth has been revealed.

An example; the government is spreading chem trails. No direct evidence exists that this is happening. However, the CIA did disburse a specific bacteria over an American city once to see if it was effective by being aerosolized.

Alberta ? Saskatoon?

Our Supreme Court judges aren't lifetime appointments in NC. Unless you plan on dying soon you could easily see the court turn blue again.

Can we just let one of them leave the union and observe what happens?

How does your average daily routine look like? How do you combat failure in your profession? Where do you get your grit from?

Getting things done like forcing rail workers to cancel their strike right

In all my life, elections were counted that night. Florida in 2000 was an outlier. Now it's the norm. I think it's inevitable to think there is fraud in elections.
