Not that anyone there ever really responded to her long rants about Natural Law, I just think that’s the one place she found that didn’t ban her for them. I still see an occasional SavageSusie screed here and there, but they're way less frequent than they once were. Also, way less coherent. She's clearly mentally deteriorating, it's kinda sad.

I love when people try to poo poo on Obama saying he was illegitimate because he was born in Kenya or Ethiopia or wherever, but they conveniently forget about his white-bread American citizen mother, which immediately makes him eligible, regardless of birth place. It always seems to be staunch constitutionalists too. Wonder why

The constitution doesn't define what a natural born citizen is. Congress did that, and if I recall the conservative argument correctly, at the time Obama was born the law said that if a child is born out of the country and only one parent was a citizen they have to have resided in the US for something like 5 years after their 14th birthday in order for the baby to be a natural born citizen too. But Barack's mom was only 18 at his birth so even though she had lived in the US for her whole life, she didn't technically meet the cutoff due to a stupidly-written law. So had he been born in Kenya he would not have been a citizen. Congress later fixed that law and applied it retroactively, so even if he had been born overseas he would have been a natural born citizen under the new law, but they say that retroactive laws don't count. Although your average freeper likely isn't aware of the nuance in the actual Birther argument that was created for their consumption, they just know he's black so he's not a real American.

There's actually a birther theory that accounts for Obama's mother being a US citizen but still says he's not a natural born citizen. It has to do with what her age was or the specific year Hawaii became a state or some other nonsense if you care to get deeply into the weeds of birther theory.

O my god they're still talking about this knock out game bullshit. I'm the lilliest white dude to ever exist, and I lived in pretty rough patch of Harlem for years and never had a problem with some kind of bullshit racism. I was literally the one white person in a whole building at one point (to where people who didn't know me would just call me "the white guy") for several years. And it was a rough neighborhood and I had a rough time or two, but that was from poverty and people being on drugs. So like I have some stories about a bad thing happening (just like I would anywhere), but mostly my stories about living there for like 5 years are things like "the time I helped a young couple move in" or "that time I fixed my elderly neighbor's sink and she made me take some empanadas home". I started reading the Freep thread back when I was living there and it always made me laugh that they treat neighborhoods like that as if they were some kind of war-ravaged Mordor, so I'd be reading this thread on the train ride home and then walking back from the subway would be me chatting with neighbors and like grabbing some eggs from the bodega and catching up with the lady down the hall.

The ur-example of this is a Peter Sweden video where he's walking around in an Oslo "no-go zone" and genuinely freaks out at seeing a muslim family just waiting around for a bus or something equally mundane. I think it's the same video where he focuses on the entrance to a mosque and sees (gasp) people in headscarfs or wearing beards just walking in and out and then going back to their boring lives in the neighbourhood, all filmed from the front line trenches of like, a chain shoe store's entryway. Of course he's being loudly a bigoted rear end in a top hat the whole time and it's a credit to the people of Oslo that no one beat him down on the street, which is what I'd expect in the Bronx. (Bronx 1 Oslo 0 suck it Norway)

They’re right that the impeachment vote will not affect what anyone thinks and nobody in America is undecided about whether or not they’ll vote for Trump next year. It’s as much of a formality as Clinton’s impeachment vote was. Trump is the symptom of a sickness of the soul, which cannot be cured by mere rule-governed procedure. It’s strange as hell to see those possessed by the soul sickness saying so like this, though.

I couldn't go to my usual right wing haunts to check out their anger at a Hillary win back in 2016. I stayed away for a long while, wanting to avoid their smugness as much as possible. Now they're back to fear, hate and suspicion, I can finally peruse them again. It's petty, I know, but gently caress these people. Seriously.

I think the smug gloating between the 2016 election and Trump's inauguration was Freep at it's most unreadable. They were just so happy. They were gleefully waiting for God Emperor Trump to arrest Hillary, kick out the Mexicans and Muslims, start building The Wall, and overturn Obergefell on his first day. Finally, They are gonna get what's coming to Them! Rejoice! And then Trump actually took office. As the months went on, and Trump wasn't the effective dictator they wanted, they reverted to their old ways. They needed someone to blame, but since Republicans controlled all three branches of government, they went all-in on the "Deep State" theory. And then about half of them were roped in by Qanon. But even then, those threads weren't really fun to read most of the time - it was the boring, purity test type of infighting (or, in the Q threads, it was just abject nonsense). Now that the Democrats control the House, we're seeing the patterns of pre-2016 Freep come back. They have villains again, and they're not just vaguely flailing against some shadowy force. We're getting back to the days of 0bozero and the Demoncraps, for better or worse.

Judas comes, gives the big smooches, and then the romans come in to arrest the leader of the bandits.
