Rights are subjective and cultural. A long time ago, the dude who owned all the land had the absolute right to execute your whole family because he just didn’t like you. There’s no objectively extant system of “rights” that other than the ones we, as a culture, choose to adopt.

Yeah this is a library. This is the same as a library, and “we shouldn’t ban biographies” is relevant to the situation once you’ve read the article.

Sure seems like the richest guy ever, who owns a preeminent tech giant, would have the best available security measures on his personal stuff, right? Especially if he’s having an affair? The whole situation screams “the only way anyone would ever have access to his private life is if they have extrajudicial…

“Sky Harbor” reminds me of my Republican aunt who has some degree or other with her military job and whose address on everything is “Dr. M—- Norris” and when she is called “Mrs. Norris” instead of “Dr.” she will correct you.

“Damaged global standing” means countries whose governments aren’t corporate sock puppets have more power and we have less. Sounds good.

I don’t get it.

-Ends lifetime Supreme Court appointments and limits judges to one term of 20 (or 15, or 12) years.

Sounds more like a meth binge than anything. Schizoaffective doesn’t have a strong correlation with hyperactivity. Nor does bipolarity with paranoia.

“Karens from HR” sounds like when Harriot talks about “Beckys”
