●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Sunday, January 12, 2025 ●● ● Jan 12 [00:08] IsambardPrince The indictment is fucked up? [00:08] IsambardPrince I agree. [00:08] IsambardPrince The US is getting ready to sanction the ICC. [00:08] IsambardPrince The law that Congress is passing refers to it as an "illegitimate court". [00:09] IsambardPrince In the law, the US will sanction anyone that assists it. [00:09] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [00:09] IsambardPrince It's designed to pair with the US law that authorizes the President to use military force to free any Americans the ICC detains. [00:09] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [00:09] IsambardPrince Americans are not subject to the ICC. [00:10] IsambardPrince And if they try to arrest us, our military will go in shooting and free the hostages. [00:10] MinceR no, giving netan-yahoo a free pass is fucked up [00:10] IsambardPrince Because US law is superior to the United Nations, and US law is enforceable. [00:10] MinceR i don't give a fuck about what you think about the ICC [00:10] IsambardPrince Well it applies to Hungary. [00:10] MinceR also, notice that poland is not the USA [00:10] IsambardPrince Because it's a weak country and I think you agreed to it anyway. [00:10] MinceR hungary has very blatantly betrayed its allies [00:11] MinceR but it's ok, because in this world, there are no consequences to what humans do, except for our looming extinction. [00:11] IsambardPrince The ICC doesn't apply to Americans because we'll fuck them up if they try anything. [00:11] MinceR again, it doesn't fucking matter if it applies to "americans" [00:11] MinceR because "americans" aren't fucking involved. [00:11] MinceR netan-yahoo is not american [00:12] MinceR poles are not american [00:12] IsambardPrince 'The ICC doesn't apply to him either. [00:12] IsambardPrince Israel didn't ratify the treaty, and is under our protection. [00:12] IsambardPrince If anyone arrests Israeli officials to send them to the ICC, they will be sanctioned by the US. [00:13] IsambardPrince That pretty much means that all their assets that the US has access to are frozen, no bank that does business in the US will deal with them and is required to freeze their assets. [00:13] IsambardPrince I mean, people say US sanctions won't affect them then find out they're wrong. [00:14] IsambardPrince I think the Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act should have gone further than sanctioning individuals and denying US visas to them and their family members. [00:14] IsambardPrince It should have sanctioned entire countries for participating with the ICC against the US or its allies. [00:15] IsambardPrince I really doubt that anyone is going to risk the entire country being sanctioned by the US to hand Netanyahu over to the ICC. [00:16] IsambardPrince I read most of the ICCA, and it does not only apply to US citizens. It covers US "persons" which includes anyone with legal immigration status/permanent residence, and it also says "anyone in the United States". [00:17] IsambardPrince So under a literal reading, the ICCA protects even illegal immigrants who are present in the US from being turned over to the ICC. [00:22] MinceR 12 011220 < IsambardPrince> Israel didn't ratify the treaty, and is under our protection. [00:22] MinceR so if netan-yahoo stays the fuck home, or only goes to the USA, he's safe [00:22] MinceR again, irrelevant. [00:23] MinceR unless orange mussolini is ready to start a war (8 days before he's even crowned) over this. [00:23] MinceR and if he wants to, go right the fuck ahead [00:23] MinceR the more humans die, the better. [00:23] *oarion7 has quit (Quit: Running IRC on a charmed medieval abacus.) [00:25] IsambardPrince I don't think there will be a war if we bust him out of ICC custody. [00:25] IsambardPrince The EU isn't a threat to the US, militarily. [00:25] IsambardPrince There's really nothing that they can do to us which won't bring immediate and horrifying consequences to them all. [00:26] IsambardPrince So they're unimportant. [00:26] IsambardPrince They're so unimportant that up to this point they're really not worth doing much about except making sure Russia doesn't move in and take all of it, which it would have without us. [00:29] MinceR i suspect it will do so regardless [00:29] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [00:29] MinceR what's orange mussolini going to do if orban, the leaders of the afd and the other nazi parties in power in EU members agree to their states being annexed into muscovy?

[00:33] IsambardPrince He lost most of his better Soviet-era junk to US defensive weaponry in Ukraine already.

To look at software issues in terms of freedom was radical and many were reluctant to consider it, so they continued to evaluate programs based on practical convenience. If the FSF were member-governed, it would soon have hundreds of members who considered our [04:25] schestowitz[TR2] goals and values unimportant and would vote to dispense with them -- if they could. To avoid that sad end, we had to design the organization not to be vulnerable to this danger. [04:25] schestowitz[TR2] " [04:25] schestowitz[TR2] " [04:25] schestowitz[TR2] As the media incessantly labeled our work as "open source", many embraced "open source" thinking we endorsed it, even as the term gave them the wrong idea of what we stood for. We had to work hard to inform the public that we stood for something different from that. When people learned where we stood, some adopted our philosophy, but many stuck with "open source" since it did not question the values that society had taught them. [04:25] schestowitz[TR2] It would have been almost inevitable for supporters of "open source" to join the FSF, then vote to convert it into an "open source" organization, if its structure allowed such a course. Fortunately, we had made sure it did not. So we were able to continue spreading the idea that software freedom is a freedom that everyone needs and everyone is entitled to, just like freedom of speech. [04:25] schestowitz[TR2] In recent years, several influential "open source" organizations have come to be dominated by large companies. Large companies are accustomed to seeking indirect political power, and astroturf campaigns are one of their usual methods. It would be easy for companies to pay thousands of people to join the FSF if by doing so they could alter its goals and values. Once again, our defensive structure has protected us."

It had enough Republican support when it passed the Senate that it easily cleared 60 votes, and repealing it would fall under a point of order if the Republicans used a reconciliation bill. [21:26] IsambardPrince So for now, same-sex marriage is safe from that angle. [21:27] IsambardPrince RFMA also has a severability clause, so what that means is if the Supreme Court strikes part of it down, the parts that are still workable without that section are still in effect. [21:28] IsambardPrince So if they decide that States don't have to recognize out-of-State marriage licenses that don't conform to their local laws, the federal government still would, and so could the States that chose to. [21:28] IsambardPrince So you still have choice of law where as long as it's legal in only one State, you could still go there. [21:28] IsambardPrince Illinois is getting ready to pass a law removing the requirement for residency in Illinois to get married in Illinois. [21:29] IsambardPrince So if we get into a situation where Indiana and Michigan don't recognize them somehow, you could still go to Illinois. [21:29] IsambardPrince The residency requirement dates back to when some States had Miscegenation laws. [21:30] IsambardPrince The Illinois legislature permitted interracial marriages, but didn't want to infringe on other States that hadn't. [21:31] IsambardPrince The law books have been getting huge updates here because the parts in question largely didn't matter for about 40-60 years. [21:32] IsambardPrince I think we should pass another type of SHIELD law, where we won't turn over people who face the death sentence until the requesting State agrees not to seek or enforce it. [21:32] IsambardPrince They'd sit in jail here indefinitely with a "pending" extradition until that's taken care of.

[21:37] IsambardPrince So maybe we can go back to treating them for mental illness. [21:38] IsambardPrince It's never "only" that they "are trans". They all obviously have other things going on because the root cause is in some sort of psychotic episode/mental condition elsewhere. [21:39] IsambardPrince I have no idea what sort of trauma makes the brain do that though. I've been through some bad shit and it never broke me so bad that my brain rebooted and I thought I was a woman when I looked in the mirror. [21:39] IsambardPrince "Back then, I never dreamed of making it this far, of reaching my dream accessing hormone replacement therapy (HRT), finally feeling excited for my future and the person Im going to be." [21:40] IsambardPrince Chronically unemployed and trying to take it out on other people with garbage filed with government agencies that don't exist (because it's Texas)? [21:41] IsambardPrince "Now Im almost an adult, and Im about five months on testosterone. I still feel 13." [21:42] IsambardPrince Stunted emotional development. [21:42] IsambardPrince :) [21:42] IsambardPrince Emotional incontinence. [21:42] IsambardPrince Yeah, that's gonna happen when you screw up your hormones.

[21:46] IsambardPrince "Transgender adults in the United States are also more likely than cisgender adults to be uninsured, to have incomes below $50,000 per year and to be unemployed, the survey found." [21:46] IsambardPrince "Finally, I can live my dream!" [21:46] IsambardPrince MinceR, ^ [21:47] IsambardPrince "Many transgender people cant afford to pay out of pocket for their health care." [21:47] MinceR can you at least leave my nick out of your bigoted rants? [21:47] IsambardPrince Well, no. It's hard paying for actual medically necessary healthcare. I can only imagine what happens when you add the costs of treating terminal illness because you have a mental illness that makes you think you're the wrong gender. [21:48] IsambardPrince "Without the ability to pay for prescription refills on hormones like testosterone and estrogen, trans Americans would face the prospect of having to suddenly stop hormone replacement therapy, which can cause adverse side effects like menopausal symptoms." [21:48] IsambardPrince Sounds fun. [21:48] IsambardPrince Where do I sign up to transition so that if I'm broke that month I too can experience man-o-pausal symptoms.

[21:50] IsambardPrince In a country of 340 million people, there are only about 12,000 people under 18 receiving treatment for "tranny issues". [21:50] IsambardPrince It seems logical to throw another election going after the same 0.01% of voters that made Trump's campaign a cake walk last year. [21:50] IsambardPrince :D [21:51] IsambardPrince Be sure to replace your tranny fluids every 50,000 miles or so. [21:51] IsambardPrince Even if the book doesn't say so. [21:51] IsambardPrince It's important because nobody knows how to fix a tranny anymore. [21:53] IsambardPrince "Trump wants the Justice Department to investigate Big Pharma and hospital networks to determine if they have covered up side effects of gender-affirming care or illegally marketed hormones and puberty blockers. He has said he wants the Department of Education to inform states and school districts that any teacher or school official caught suggesting to a child that they might be transgender will be faced wi [21:53] IsambardPrince th severe consequences, including potential civil rights violations for sex discrimination." [21:53] IsambardPrince "He has pledged to remove any health care provider or hospital that provides gender-affirming care to trans youth from the Medicaid or Medicare programs, on the grounds that providing such care violates the programs federal health and safety standards. Although Trump does not name a federal agency in this declaration, such a policy change would have to be done through the secretary of health and human services or rulemakin [21:53] IsambardPrince g within the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)." [21:54] IsambardPrince That would take about 6-8 months but it's doable. [21:54] IsambardPrince Someone could probably get a national injuntion but it would be difficult to keep it in effect for more than a few weeks. [21:54] IsambardPrince The appeals courts are harder to "shop" because you get either 3 judges or 9 usually. [21:55] IsambardPrince And there's a pretty even mix on most, excpet a few where Trump managed to name almost all of them. [21:55] IsambardPrince So forget them. ● Jan 12 [22:04] IsambardPrince MinceR, They want volunteers to go through the county counting homeless people and talking to them. [22:04] IsambardPrince Many of them are crazy and dangerous, a lot of them could work and don't want to, some are illegals. [22:04] IsambardPrince Most people try not to engage because of this. [22:05] IsambardPrince Distrubingly, most of the increase is due to high rents and the horrible Biden jobs market that the news lied about for four years. [22:05] MinceR i don't care [22:05] IsambardPrince Whenever the news said something bad about the Biden administration, government officials would call and curse them out and threaten them. [22:06] IsambardPrince The US actually dropped more in Press Freedom under Biden than it did under Trump. [22:06] IsambardPrince We fell 5 spots under Biden. [22:10] MinceR we'll get back to how horrible biden was once you get your pink triangle [22:12] IsambardPrince You know, that was already inflicted on us by the trannies. [22:12] IsambardPrince Taco Bell relabeled their bathrooms as "all gender" with purple triangles. [22:15] IsambardPrince MinceR, So what's up with that shit? [22:15] IsambardPrince First the Nazis branded us with that, now the trannies are plastering Nazi imagery everywhere and they expect us to believe they are fully sane? [22:17] IsambardPrince MinceR, Ideally, I'd be able to live in one of those rehabbed nuclear missile silos. [22:17] IsambardPrince Deep deep beneath the ground. Provisions to last forever. No noise or traffic. [22:18] IsambardPrince In reality, I get to deal with other people's mental illness and crime and "monkey music" and yelling and dragging their girlfriend down the hallway by her hair in the middle of the night. [22:18] IsambardPrince And people overflowing their bathtub into my apartment. [22:19] IsambardPrince And a landlord that raises the rent as the building falls apart and people abandon old cars here.

[22:34] IsambardPrince MinceR, So why would the trannies bring back Nazi imagery? [22:35] IsambardPrince Do they think that victims of the Holocaust ever want to see that shit again? [22:35] MinceR i don't know, why do you advertise nazis? [22:35] MinceR and why do christians put crosses fucking everywhere? [22:35] IsambardPrince Well, you know. Because Jesus had to die for some reason before God would change his mind about us. [22:36] IsambardPrince Don't ask why. [22:36] MinceR how could a being that is omnipotent, including about the future, change his mind? [22:36] MinceR oops [22:36] MinceR s/potent/scient/ [22:36] IsambardPrince Before that, God behaved in violent and random ways. [22:36] IsambardPrince And enjoyed the smell of animals which were set on fire and flooded the world killing everyone for the actions of a few. [22:36] IsambardPrince You know, collective punishment. [22:36] IsambardPrince :D [22:38] IsambardPrince MinceR, These Republican immigration bills coming through, most of them make no sense. [22:38] IsambardPrince It would force ICE to detain people who are accused (not convicted) of very low level infractions. [22:38] IsambardPrince At a cost of billions of dollars per year. [22:38] IsambardPrince I get the one that says "sex crimes or domestic battery". [22:38] IsambardPrince But "petty larceny"? [22:39] MinceR it's their way of teaching you that states don't work [22:39] *agentcasey_ has quit (connection closed) [22:39] MinceR it's not very convincing, but it's the best they can do [22:39] *agentcasey_ (~agentcasey@8pzu2fcsusfzc.irc) has joined #techrights [22:39] IsambardPrince The Laken Riley Act has almost nothing to do with what happened to Laken Riley, and wouldn't have prevented it. [22:40] IsambardPrince NYC released her killer on low level state charges, ignoring an ICE detainer. [22:40] IsambardPrince Which would have happened even if the Laken Riley Act had been the law at that point in time. [22:41] IsambardPrince Nothing in the Act requires NYC to change their policy of ignoring ICE detainers. [22:41] IsambardPrince It says that ICE has to detain someone accused of those misdemeanors, but only if they get to the jail before they're released. [22:42] IsambardPrince In many cases, you only sit in jail for 3-5 hours before they let you go on a promise to appear. [22:42] IsambardPrince By the time the FBI gets your prints, two of those hours have already elapsed. [22:42] MinceR also, they're not republican [22:42] IsambardPrince So unless ICE gets there in 1-3 hours then they still won't catch you. [22:42] MinceR republicans don't abolish republics [22:46] IsambardPrince Someone on Reddit said that the interviewer at USCIS said there had been a surge of citizenship applications in the past couple years from long time green card holders. [22:47] IsambardPrince So obviously I wasn't the only one that saw Trump as a threat. [22:47] IsambardPrince If others didn't, that's really their problem I guess. [22:47] IsambardPrince A lot of people I know of with DACA, green cards, etc. could have moved faster and they decided to go blow their money at the bar or concerts or something.
