Isn’t there some legend that Jar Jar actually was Darth Plagueis the Wise?

The problem would’ve been that Darth Plagueis was established as a Muun - a different species from Jar Jar. That being said, I don’t recall when that became canon, before or after The Phantom Menace.

I was answering a question in the last thread.

re: #358 Rightwingconspirator

It’s cavilling, because Islamic jurisprudence can bend and stretch in ways similar to how fundie Christians bend and stretch the Bible. Take the same small set of documents—in order of importance…Quran, Sharia, hadith, preexisting interpretations of the former three by approved scholars of the sect—and you can arrive at any number of readings.

The Taliban have previously pitched and shifted in their theology and religious law, but their general position has been…extremely stentorian readings of all available documents, giving force of law to stuff that’s closer to “advice” (like Hadith) and reading formal religious law in the least charitable most punitive manner. Culturally, the Taliban are tribal Pashtun, and there are a lot of weird hinks in Pashtun understanding of Islam that I don’t know how to explain either. I know they favor the jirga—a sort of consensus counsel of men to act as judge and jury…and jirga tend to be absolutely savage to women. There’s also a baseline misogyny and gender segregation that goes beyond normal Islam and leads to shit like pederasty.

(Sorry, lot of decent Pashtun out there but in the tribal regions people can do horrible shit because that’s what patriarchial totalitarian systems do wherever they are: hack the culture to turn it into license to do what they want…which invariably involves fucking. Ignore the aesthetic of brown people in a barely-developed region and they function exactly like the fundie organizations full of molesters, or the New York nonces that imported all those teenage “models” from Eastern Europe. )

For women, that probably means extreme modesty with harsh penalties, but maybe some property and inheritance rights. It probably doesn’t mean formal education, but I get the feeling these guys aren’t for educating people beyond their madrasas. It likely means that what rights and protections they do have are through their natal or marital family, and the most likely “crime” they’ll commit is violation of their expected role as daughter or wife. Basically…Old Testament shit (literally) where cultural rules and criminal rules are both enforced by the state.

The question will become how formal they make rules—an Islamic law enforcement and legal system would at least have some kind of standard of operation, a chance to challenge claims and a formal process of accusation and arrest. If they stick to the jigra—the local good ole’ boys given life and death power—shit will be worse.

I look forward to a SCOTUS Justice informing us that the right to cast a ballot is somehow not an intrinsic right of every US Citizen.

i thought i read that they wrote this using the roberts/scotus opinion in shelby.
that it was up to congress to update the rules and formulas

and that the idea was to use the framework of the opinion so whatever new law congress made, scotus couldnt arbitrarily reverse on itself

re: #383 Hecuba’s daughter

How can it not be meritless? The recall as constituted has been part of the California Constitution since 1911. It’s unwise, undemocratic, and ridiculous. But it’s definitely not unconstitutional (IANAL).

something can be unconstitutional even though no one’s ever challenged it.
and it’s the u.s. constitution…

i havent read the lawsuit or the op-ed and also ianal either.
from electoral-vote.com, the basic argument seems to be:

The op-ed and the lawsuit point out, quite reasonably, that this violates the basic constitutional principle that one person’s vote cannot be more valuable than another person’s vote (or, put another way, something like 28% of the vote should not override something like 48% of the vote).

so maybe

…some arguments that are not likely to impress the general public, but that judges will sit up and listen to. This recall suit appears to be in the latter category. The plaintiffs are California voters, so it is hard to argue they don’t have standing to bring suit. And while courts are loath to get involved in elections, particularly at the last minute, there’s a real constitutional issue here, so there may be no choice.

and the proposed solutions are not that straightforward because they’d invalidate the state law

(From the previous thread:)

re: #358 Rightwingconspirator

Google fails on this one. Those of us here that are Muslim or at least well studied maybe would help me out?

There is a Taliban govt. quote. “the rights of women will be protected within the framework of Islam.” Let’s say for a moment this is genuine. (I know but still). With the admission Christianity is not as simple as what Jesus said, Islam covers a lot of ground. All that having been said, what does the above quote mean? Work? School? Angry dishonest or cheating husband? Arranged marriage? Female genital mutilation?

I keep coming up with this means almost no rights at all but I’m far from expert and unbiased.

(Not a Muslim, but have lived in a Muslim country.) There’s theory and there’s practice.
Here’s the theory: According to reputable hadiths (Stories and testimonies about Mohammed, which are considered a secondary source of interpreting Islam below the Quran.), Mohammed himself had a female boss, an independent businesswoman, Khadijah, whom he later married (and was his only wife until she died). Women have to consent to a marriage and can divorce.

However, women’s testimony worth less than that of a man.

Even the theory varies a lot based on the specific school of Islamic law.

Then, there’s practice, which varies _widely_ and often falls way short of even theory. Perpetrators of “honor killings” are punished lightly, women who bring rape allegations are themselves prosecuted for adultery, forced marriage, and female genital mutilation are common in _some_ Muslim countries. FGM is unknown in other Muslim countries though.

I’d argue we’ve already seen thirsty chud Islam manifest with ISIS.

Like, I’ll put money a bunch of those international folks that suddenly signed up or converted were in it for a system that promises beheadings and slave-wives.

Whether of not we’ll see that here…well, chuds everywhere want the same thing—libertinism minus the acknowledgement of radical personal choice, backed by authority so no one can assert their autonomy versus your antisocial choices. To get this end, they take existing moral and cultural frameworks and hollow them out, removing and reinterpreting all the bits that constrain their choices, but leaving in all the punitive bits that constrain other people that don’t want to participate in an re-enactment of 120 Days of Sodom.

So most US chuds are going to lean into Christianity and capitalism, because on the ground those are the best camouflage for their sadism, since both those ideologies in the US context have whole centuries-long stratigraphy of excuse making for hurting people and creepy nonconsensual fucking.

But…there definitely is a kind of chud that finds the rigidity and absolutism of patriarchy in fundamentalist Islam appealing, they’re just not the majority.

The doc at Seton Medical center in Moss Beach looks like a weathered bearded old hippie. Long gray hair but bald on top. Big scar down the middle of his chest from open heart surgery he had years ago. Nice guy.

I told the nurse I was worried they were going to close that hospital. She said, “Don’t listen to the rumors…this is the only hospital on the coast between San Francisco and Santa Cruz. The state will never let it close.”

Bolton did nothing to shore up the Afghan government. Nothing. They did the opposite by kneecapping the regime to the point that when US forces began withdrawal, the Afghan leader fled and the security forces melted away.

Why? Because Trump cut a deal with the Taliban and made it impossible for the regime to continue. Trump gave the Taliban what it wanted, and Trump got what he wanted - the ability to try and smear Biden who was left trying to clean up the mess.

“…Traffic on the website is usually limited to visitors and referrals from people in D.C. and in nearby communities in Virginia and Maryland, Carter said. But starting on New Year’s Day, a spike in traffic included visitors nationwide. He said a deeper review of analytics from his site revealed many of the clicks were coming from hyperlinks shared on anonymous message boards, sites and forums named after militias or firearms, or using Donald Trump’s name.”

I keep circling back to DeSade: why would anyone want to empathize with the suffering when they could enjoy themselves empathizing with the torturer?

Except these people have no balls and thus demand that there be a system in place that pins down their victims and escorts them back to cages without incident.

Castle Silling, but with a perimeter of cops.

Bolton did nothing to shore up the Afghan government. Nothing. They did the opposite by kneecapping the regime to the point that when US forces began withdrawal, the Afghan leader fled and the security forces melted away.

Why? Because Trump cut a deal with the Taliban and made it impossible for the regime to continue. Trump gave the Taliban what it wanted, and Trump got what he wanted - the ability to try and smear Biden who was left trying to clean up the mess.

Didn’t Trump’s withdrawal of American forces occur when Bolton was not in office? I didn’t think that Bolton was involved in any Trump actions designed to weaken the Afghan regime.

that fist striking that face
the circumstances
the illegality (your freedom to act ends where my face begins)

is the same as not wearing a mask
with the one difference being in this case the assault just happens to be invisible to the naked eye

Roll Call: “The Taliban’s rapid takeover of Afghanistan could mean changes for the billions of dollars the Pentagon sought in the next fiscal year, but is unlikely to change the trajectory of the larger defense policy and spending bills currently under consideration in Congress.”

these people are brilliant!

Sounds to me like Florida needs an entire new Board of Education. Because the people there now don’t know shit about education, except teaching hatred, spite and ignorance.

Seriously though, I hope that somehow these assholes lose their jobs. Anyone going that far into this isn’t concerned with education at ALL.

“The origin story of Covid-19 remains a mystery mired in contentious geopolitical debate,” Bloomberg reports.

“But a research paper that languished in publishing limbo for a year and a half contains meticulously collected data and photographic evidence supporting scientists’ initial hypothesis—that the outbreak stemmed from infected wild animals—which prevailed until speculation that SARS-CoV-2 escaped from a nearby lab gained traction.”

re: #104 Dangerman

I don’t give a fuck where it came from. It’s here and we have to deal now. Maybe when this is in the rear view mirror we can do a forensic investigation into where it came from. All this does is pass blame somewhere else and ignores what has to happen now.

He is vaccinated so it is likely that he will have a mild case. He won’t use this to promote vaccinations but he might claim that it shows vaccinations are ineffective.

he also has a significant comorbidity, so odds for a mild case aren’t automatically great.

Well, the two largest hospitals near me are no longer accepting ICU/CCU or psych patients. There are no beds left and both hospitals are not allowing visitors anywhere inside any hospital building. The largest of those two hospitals just built a huge new ER department and have said they can’t take any patient coming in by ambulance. This is one of the largest ERs in the SE USA and they are at capacity. Go Georgia. Yay.

I hope they make him down a ton of ivermectin. For science.
