yeah they can be prosecuted

I'm just pushing back on the ideas they shouldn't be forgiven or should be hated (both explicitly against Christian teachings: Matthew 6:14, Matthew 5:44)

I certainly do understand they've done things that can be hard to forgive, or which are not liked though, that's fair to say, and also of a desire for justice (but not revenge, which is against Romans 12:19)

"hate the left"

naw, we "love our enemies"... but don't have to like or agree with certain things they do at all

can the forum suggest some reasons why this should not be the case for all drugs for adults 18+?

exclude meth, heroin, cocaine for the sake of discussion if you want. Why do we need prescriptions for adults to grow or buy these meds themselves in a free country?

I guess my approach to this event was almost to ignore it, never thought it was more than a "mostly peaceful protest"

any more than I think much about the BLM riots at that time, which were often not as peaceful

like I almost feel like talking about it as if it was an event or defending it much almost feeds in to the narrative that it wasn't a "nothingburger"

might be in part the left's rhetoric doesn't match their actions, on many things but I have in mind them saying and acting like:

"trump is hitler"

"but that's ok we're just going to let the fourth reich and holocaust 2.0 happen"

ergo people know trump is not hitler, and dems are not messaging with accuracy

Ross probably not involved with this, just seemed like lolbertarian edgelord that wanted to legalize drugs (which I don't think is an incorrect view, I think all drugs should probably be fully legal in an actually "free" America, but don't need to create illegal drug markets as the "tactic" for legalizing them)

it's the rural - urban divide I imagine

liberal cities like austin?

illegals flooding border cities like el paso?

this is exactly what we expected he's thinking though, and trump correctly called him out on it. they want war they can profit from. too bad so many see him as a "freedom fighter" rather than a warhawk grifter

ehhh banning flat earth kind of seems like a weak look, flat earthers may be wrong but seem to ask interesting questions, at least to me

related topics come up like how much grift there is in "space" programs, about truly understanding things with science (many people simply believe the earth is round because they've been told it is and so far I see a lot of bad arguments against flat earth questions), freedom of inquiry in science, and so on

So is your position that this is fine because there are other regulations, or you are against this and the regulations because they are anti-freedom, or are you just against freedom and think America is not to be a land of the free

I admittedly blow with the political wind at times, I just want a "conservative" government but I tentatively like "anarcho-capitalism" ideally

so here I mean I can see people cheering it on here because they want bad pharma to be banned... but wouldn't this also ban advertising for ivermectin, which people are also simultaneously cheering on?

Generally it feels like a lot of these regulations just cause more problems and the solution can be achieved more voluntarily here (advertise something better, or draw people away from watching TV more or something, voluntarily)
