I should probably try going back to it. Saw the first episode and never went back to it.

Dude, they don't even need the Internet anymore. They just tell lies wherever. Tell them enough and they stop being lies. That's how it works, right? If enough people believe the lie, it becomes the truth.

In reality, they'll probably just refuse to take it up if the most recent federal appeal comes down the "right" way. Because they're cowards. Like most of the government.

I can't wait to read the legal gymnastics the SCOTUS is going to barf out to OK this!

"You see the 1st amendment only protects the party in power..."

"If that speech makes the leader of the country sad, then it cannot be protected by the Constitution he's sworn to uphold!"

"Because of this precedent we're choosing to interpret completely opposite to its history being taught in law schools, the 1st amendment only protects registered Republicans. But, and this is important, this isn't setting precedent. This is a one-off. You know, legal no backsies!"

Plus, a lot of people just don't care enough to give up their Cherry Garcia. People attach value to the strangest things.

I think, in certain cases, they can. IANAL, but I'm thinking about the formula for Coke or KFC's 11 herbs and spices recipe. Aren't those consider trade secrets? I mean they probably can't protect "vanilla," but they can trademark their specific formulation named something like "virgin snow vanilla?" I actually cringed a bit writing that...

edit: spelling

Everything happens in a vacuum with these people. Except when it's about the "radical left." This it's just projection.

You should be sainted.
