I'm a card-carrying member of the Australian Skeptics. Motto: Seek the Evidence.
Skeptics know that vaccines work, that the Earth is an oblate spheroid, that anthropogenic climate change is real, and other stuff that's supported by evidence.
RFK Jr is not a skeptic.

I'm re-reading Small Gods at the moment. STP's genius shines through in this witty, insightful look at the nonsense that is gods.

Aussie here. I have to disagree. Social security is welfare, as it *should* be. I should be available whether you're earned it or not - it's a fundamental component of a just society.

Given that the supreme court has refused to implement the 14th, the constitution is no longer worth the vellum it's printed on.

Given that the US has declined to implement the 14th amendment, their constitution clearly isn't worth the vellum it's printed on.

Accidentally?

Given the blatant refusal to impose the 14th amendment, the US constitution demonstrably isn't worth the vellum it's printed on.

The constitution has already been overthrown, otherwise Trump would be disqualified under the 14th amendment.

You know those moving walkways they have in airports? Imagine that it's turned off and you're walking along on it at 3kph. Now they turn it on and it's moving in the opposite direction to which you're walking at 2kph. So then you're moving forwards at 1kph.
It's exactly like that. :-)

Imagine if Americans treated this amendment with the same reverence with which they treat the one about the "right" to bear arms.
