ThisIsWhyTrumpWon posted:Or discouraging depending what side you are on. Oh man, what a coincidence, I'm also concerned about boys' and young men's relationships to their masculinity and how cultural expectations might make them feel as if they aren't sufficiently masculine or feel forced to change how they express themselves in a way that causes them emotional harm! Have you watched The Mask You Live In yet? It's a great documentary about this exact subject and it's available on Netflix! You know what else I like that talks about boys and their relationship to masculinity and how to be a good role model so that boys feel confident, safe, and happy in relation to their masculinity? The Good Men Project I don't actually read it that often because it turns out I don't actually care about kids that much, but it sounds like something you might be really interested in! Have you tried volunteering for things like Big Brothers Big Sisters? That's a good way to try and model good behavior and help kids grow up happy and supported too! I'm so glad you care about dismantling the harmful expectations put on young men as they grow up, and about providing them with ample examples of how men can express their masculinity in ways that are healthy and honest. But really, it's a good documentary and it really is on Netflix.

ReliableSand posted:It does look like someone maced him though. If you examine the first few seconds of the video you can definitely see a stream of liquid arc up towards his face from the crowd on his right, and based on the immediate reflexive swat up towards his face and stumbling afterwards it looks like he got a face full of mace in his dumb Nazi face. I don't know how much experience you have with mace/pepper spray but it's not the kind of thing that hurts for 20 seconds and then you're fine after. If he got legitimately sprayed he'd be essentially blinded for a good few minutes.

You can't spray mace in a crowd like that outdoors and just hit one single person who's fine a minute later.

If he got sprayed with anything it was pisssssssss.

RandomBlue posted:You can't spray mace in a crowd like that outdoors and just hit one single person who's fine a minute later. Yeah. I remember Lockup doing an episode on what new prison guards go through on their orientation and one of the things everyone has to do is get maced at least once so they know what it feels like and how to respond to it themselves if they ever have to use it on an inmate or get accidentally spayed themselves. Getting maced fucks you up beyond recovery for like at least 10 minutes after you get hit with it. When that dude turned around and opened his eyes completely, it was beyond clear that he faked it. Loser.

Colin Mockery posted:Even aside from the watering down of mandatory gender rolls, how many 18-24 year olds who aspire to be "completely masculine" think they aren't yet because they don't have a wife, house, two kids, and a career? I have a wife, house, three kids, and a career, and I'd rate myself a 2. gently caress 'masculinity'. I have feelings, and i'm going to feel them. I have a wife, and I'm going to listen to her opinion on stuff, and I have kids, and they need to know that doing the right thing is more important than pride or saving face.

Kaal posted:I get that you put together a big effort post, but I'm afraid this just isn't true. The concept of a nominal fee is not strictly defined, and it is quite possible to put together a standard security fee schedule based on the level of security required. The courts have been pretty clear about the idea that universities can charge fees so long as they can show that the need for services is real and not arbitrary. Do you have examples, after Forsyth? The court declined to clarify what a "nominal" fee was (the tension of Cox and Murdock) but reiterated repeatedly throughout that because a permit process is a prior restraint on speech, the factors influencing the permit process must be content neutral. Blackmun explicitly rejects the argument that content can be used to determine the cost of maintaining public order and explicitly rejects the argument that the reaction of others can influence the costs of the speaker. This is precedent until overturned. The university may charge fees (and may vary the size of the fees) by analyzing factors other than content (size and nature of venue, number of ticketed attendees). I can't square your post with Blackmun's final line in the decision and his insistence that taking into account the public's reaction to speech is not content neutral. quote:The provision of the Forsyth County ordinance relating to fees is invalid because it unconstitutionally ties the amount of the fee to the content of the speech and lacks adequate procedural safeguards; no limit on such a fee can remedy these constitutional violations. marshmonkey posted:Precioussssssssssssssssssssss You're a saint. I hope this stays fresh and amusing as long as @mayoremanuel and Owen Ellickson's ongoing election narrative.

Thanks for putting so much effort into this! I have legal experience but in an utterly different system, and I got a lot out of this. In fact I've ended up shunting my own work aside and am looking up the precedents you named. Of course, discussing jurisprudence in this civilized way relies on having judges, not a loving medieval Inquisition: quote:“Guess what? I attend a conservative Baptist church. We discriminate, alright. On the basis of sexual orientation, we discriminate,” Jeff Mateer said during a speech to the National Religious Liberties Conference in 2015, long before Trump nominated him. At the time, Mateer was general counsel for the conservative legal organization First Liberty Institute. “Does that mean I can’t be a judge? In some states, I think that’s true, unfortunately.” quote:Prayer meetings “need” to be happening in the Department of Justice https://news.vice.com/story/trumps-nominee-for-texas-federal-judge-jeff-mateer-admits-he-discriminates-against-lgbtq-people https://www.vox.com/identities/2017/10/19/16504104/trump-jeff-mateer-lgbtq

dumbass posted:The “separation of church and state” is “nowhere” in the U.S. constitution This guy calls himself a Baptist? Keeping church and state separate has been a core Baptist doctrine for centuries, because Baptists were the ones who often faced government discrimination for their religious beliefs. In addition to being a huge shithead, this guy isn't even a good member of his own congregation. (I'm a non-crazy Baptist southerner who believes in evolution, firmly believes that church and state should be separate, doesn't give a poo poo what bathroom trans individuals use, and thinks abortion should be legal. We do exist)

"Son, you're gonna be dealing with *girls* until get to be around 32-35. Only then will you begin meeting *women*. Sure, their boobs won't be as perky as a college co-ed's, and their personality won't be as bubbly because of life experience, but where a girl will gleefully gently caress your life up and stab you in the back without much of a thought and laugh while (and after) doing it, a woman will look you straight in the eye before she ends you."

(Seriously, though, we need more cool Christians out there ‘cause holy hell the Evangelical bloc looks like it’s recruiting folks to run a concentration camp for people of color and/or LGBT folks as of late. Reading articles about how they look right past Trump’s evil deeds is scaring the hell out of me.)

Crabtree posted:I will find this man in this same shirt a few weeks from now and I will grab him by his man titties highlighted by those swastikas and twist his nipples off with wire, hooks and a engine. This is a beautiful post. To me, the strangest thing about the Trump phenomenon isn't the blatant racism. I understand that's a feature, not a bug, and is pretty deeply woven into Western culture. What I don't get is, even if I actually was wherever the gently caress Trump is on the political spectrum, with his weird mix of authoritarianism and anti-establishmentism, wouldn't I want someone who was, you know, competent? Like, if you think the government is hosed and needs serious reform, in any direction, how do you look at Trump, hear him speak, notice that his sentences are never about the same thing at the end as they are at the beginning and go 'this is the man to reform a broken system'? Like, I get what they want him to do and why, but I don't get why they think he can do it.

Now listen to someone, anyone, explain what the ACA is or what our strategy against ISIS is, whoa that is confusing and complicated, sounds like a bunch of bullshit to confuse us and make us forget the common-sense solutions: just give everyone great healthcare and kill all Arabs.

VitalSigns posted:...just give everyone [cheap and worthless] healthcare... FTFY. The GOP ~has~ to murder Obamacare before people come to remember (and enjoy) how much better it was than the alternative. They need to minimize the amount of time new adults signing up for their first non-parental insurance coverage have to learn to appreciate it. That's why they were so quick to allow children to stay on their parents' insurance plans until the age of 26. They wanted those young adults to never actually have to sign up for insurance under the new system for *themselves*. It's still early enough for them to kill it and have people shrug, sigh, and go back to their lovely "get hit by a bus" plans with a modicum of fuss.
