Hey, you said you were asking an "honest question", rear end in a top hat. If so, honestly reply to some of this: quote:Donald Trump vowed Friday that if Iran inappropriately approached US ships, they would be "shot out of the water." quote:MATTHEWS: Where would we drop — where would we drop a nuclear weapon in the Middle East?

Tight Booty Shorts posted:Women tend to be more authoritarian than men. Except that is only a function of women's disadvantaged place in society: quote:But for individualistic countries, gender inequality seems to matter for determining the greater endorsement of authoritarianism by women compared to men. These results contribute to a growing social psychological literature attempting to understand why people hold onto authoritarian values and beliefs and suggest that authoritarianism may arise in part because of the basic human desire for social connection. Moreover, the results of this study join a growing literature on the effects of inequality, social status, and stigma on a variety of consequential attitudes and behaviors. To truly understand a person, we must also understand their place in their society. So it isn't s "biotruth" it is another impact of our sexist culture.

So if women are authoritarian by nature, isn't electing more women to office just going to see stricter enforcement of current laws instead of passing new laws? Isn't that exactly what Hillary's platform is? How is that conducive to progress?

That said, I'd be amazed if weed is still illegal in ten years.

As a counter point to the weed talk: I'd love it if she could everything she wants to do on immigration reform. However, I'm not going to hold my breath when the immigrant population is politically in the box of "Vote Dem or Vote Re(WTF is wrong with you Vote Dem)". Point is that the legalize now crowd has even less political clout when the ball already is slowing moving that way. Take what you can get now and quit bitching about it.

I'm pro nationwide marijuana legalization, but there's a lot I don't know about how it would work in practice What happens to people who are already incarcerated for possession and distribution? I mean personally I'd like to see them automatically released, but I'm sure the world isn't that good. How do we handle situations where intoxication is dangerous, like driving or caring for children? We can't test for it as easily as alcohol, and people can't really track their intake as specifically either. What do we do about increased youth consumption? I by no means think drug consumption is immoral, but the APA says frequent marijuana use may have a negative effect on brain development. Marijuana smoke has some cigarette-like risks for lung cancer too, so I would hate to see it fall into a gap regarding smoking bans the way vaping does. Although vaping works wonders as a contraceptive.

Men are ~2 times more likely to smoke marijuana than women. There are also a number of gender-related differences in problems related to use. I imagine men see it as an issue of liberty (particularly since they go to jail more for it) and some number of women see it as a nuisance in their lives. We see the same gender gap in alcohol related law support because women suffer different issues to alcohol related problems, but as they drink more, the gap closes.

Lightning Knight posted:Literally "we shouldn't elect women to office because they might actually govern." L m a o No it is actually a lot more of a lovely gross argument. What is happening is there is a disadvantaged group that because of their disadvantage, are more statistically likely to have some trait Eugene thinks is bad. Therefore all members of that disadvantaged group must have that trait and so we should discriminate against that group. It is base-level bigotry. It is the same dehumanizing logic used by other deplorables.

I don't know how your brain stem manages to keep you breathing. What part of being authoritarian would cause less new laws? If anything, it would cause more. More laws are generally conductive to progress unless they actively curtail it. See Voter's Rights Act, EPA Clean Water/Air Acts, Endangered Species Act, ACA, etc all were new regulations that created progress by enforcing it. Just hoping for progress isn't enough, which is why capitalism sucks.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:I'm pro nationwide marijuana legalization, but there's a lot I don't know about how it would work in practice So I'm not gonna claim to be an expert but I'd imagine that broadly speaking these are some ideas we're working with: Potential release of drug-related offenders would be a nightmare. If I recall correctly, precedent dictates that you stay in jail if what you did wasn't legal then even if it is now. Which obviously blows. If we could get them out it would turn into a shitshow of trying to vet criminals to see who only committed non-violent offenses and attempting to expunge their records. A lot of poor people and minorities would still be hosed over and it would be a long, slow fight uphill. I dunno how we deal with inaccuracies re: drug testing after driving, but right now part of the problem is that weed culture is lovely because of its illegal nature. If it was legal and socially acceptable weed users could develop a more responsible drug culture. It would probably be difficult in the same way drinking is, however. Youth consumption is absolutely going to come down to education. Just like with sex ed, telling them just to not do it doesn't work. We have to make it clear what it is and what they're getting into and hope that they self-moderate and learn. Part of why underage drinking is such a problem imo is that we put off learning to drink responsibly until our dumbass kids are in college instead of making them learn at 16-18 when they're safe at home. I personally feel that second-hand smoke laws should apply equally to all smoked substances in public. Maybe that's just me. You have the right to put things in your body but not in mine by proximity. Do that poo poo at home.
