Lol, the irony of wanting to overturn an election because your guy lost is constitutional.

I thought these people were all about states rights

It is, it is. The original version though, back before 1865 when you could own certain colored people and treat them like animals, beat their wives and tell other women to shut up, and be applauded for being an excellent human being and gentleman for acting like a douche bag.
Freepers want an excuse to be the lovely people they are and condemn/beat/murder others for shunning them over it

Again a very likpatous story
For the record, the part I was saying was mental illness isn't the racism or hatred or desire for violence, they own that regardless of their mental health, since there are many people with mental illness who are not hateful bigoted assholes. It was, specifically, the idea that everyone is out to get "their side" and that any time anyone does anything they don't like, it's because there's a grand conspiracy to oppose them, and that anyone who deviates from what they consider "the correct politics" is evil incarnate.

That said, I admit that it's definitely wrong for me to armchair diagnose them, and do understand how it can harm and marginalize mental illness, so I apologize and I'll try not to do that again.

Braves is one of those that could in theory be fine cause it's the name of an actual occupation rather than just a straight slur. Unfortunately you have everything else about their branding.

I'm guessing they meant more like how most soccer teams are just named [City that the soccer team plays for], e.g. the team for Munich is just called Bayern-Munich. ("Bayern" means Bavaria, the region that Munich is the capital of.)
