[00:27] schestowitz if they die a month later they don't get counted [00:27] DaemonFC COVID three times and they forced him to get the Pfizer vaccine anyway. [00:27] schestowitz 28 days after positive test result [00:27] DaemonFC And it caused heart damage. [00:28] DaemonFC Permanent heart damage for maybe 90 days of protection from COVID.

[00:28] schestowitz Brandon says, money do [00:28] DaemonFC She just doesn't want to take it. [00:29] schestowitz *monkey doi [00:29] DaemonFC She told me that. [00:29] DaemonFC But they let her sign a religious thing and go on about how fetal stem cell testing and all that. [00:29] DaemonFC Like, you know, she'll take the other 500 medicines that used fetal line stem cells for testing. [00:29] DaemonFC But not this one. [00:30] DaemonFC Almost everyone signing religious exemption forms just doesn't want to take it. [00:30] DaemonFC And they know that they can use that as an excuse that's hard to disprove. [00:31] DaemonFC It's so hard to disprove that the government barely tries. [00:31] DaemonFC They just move on and force people who aren't willing to lie to take the vaccine. [00:33] DaemonFC Mandy wasn't happy about that baby gate I put up on the door at the hotel. [00:33] DaemonFC The door just opened straight up to a parking lot next to a major highway and I was always worried my cats would get out. [00:34] DaemonFC I managed to keep everyone safe through that whole mess. This government has done nothing except try to kill me. [00:35] DaemonFC Taxes me and then uses that tax money to try to kill me. [00:36] DaemonFC I have the same opinion of the court that Larry Flynt did. [00:36] DaemonFC "Fuck this court. You're nothing but 8 assholes and a token cunt.". [00:36] DaemonFC Best line ever. [00:36] DaemonFC And he said it right to them! [00:39] DaemonFC It's unbelievable that speaking out about judicial misconduct and corruption is actually a crime. [00:40] DaemonFC Richard Stallman is actually a left-wing Authoritarian extremist though. [00:40] DaemonFC He claims he wants more democracy, but then he doesn't respect elections that don't go the way he wants them to and people who don't agree with him. [00:41] DaemonFC The structure of the US federal government is both democratic and anti-democratic by nature. [00:41] DaemonFC The notion is that too much of either one is a bad thing. [00:41] DaemonFC And for the most part, that is true. [00:42] DaemonFC The courts are anti-democratic because they're a check on what the most recently elected government has done. [00:43] DaemonFC What would we do with no courts? Well, I wouldn't have the right to be married. [00:43] schestowitz-TR almost done with draft now.. [00:43] DaemonFC If I had sex, it would be a crime depending on what state I was in. [00:43] DaemonFC People who don't want to take the vaccine shouldn't have to in order to work. [00:43] DaemonFC Unless the government is going to replace their entire paycheck for the duration....which it won't. [00:44] DaemonFC Stallman actually wants this mess to get worse than it already is. [00:45] DaemonFC If 40% of people lose their job, there's going to be riots and things getting burned, but when the mess is over, it won't be Communists running the country like he hopes for. [00:46] *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) [00:46] DaemonFC About all you can do to keep these people under control is keep them just comfortable enough that they won't bother to do anything to really change the system. [00:46] DaemonFC When a person has nothing to lose, they're free to do whatever they want, because nothing matters anymore. [00:47] DaemonFC If they lose their jobs, they're going to be radicalized and fast. [00:47] DaemonFC And it will be the far-right that does it. [00:48] schestowitz-TR DaemonFC: can you read it?

[01:00] DaemonFC So that's where all of the political power is. [01:00] DaemonFC The rest of the state has no control over state government politics. [01:00] DaemonFC So it leads to this unhealthy relationship where they despise being here. [01:01] DaemonFC There's been proposals to split Chicago off into its own state. The Republicans are the ones who want rid of it. [01:02] DaemonFC It makes sense for them because commuters can still go to Chicago and bring back their money. [01:02] DaemonFC Indiana has no arguments like this because the population is spread out pretty evenly and everyone has at least some say in state politics. [01:03] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, There's a new Republican amendment to the FOID Act. [01:03] DaemonFC They want to do automatic voter registration for everyone who gets a FOID card.

[01:04] *phebus (~phebus@f95gnd3zj7732.irc) has joined #techrights [01:04] DaemonFC You already get registered to vote when you get a state ID or driver's license, and you need one of those to get a FOID card. [01:04] DaemonFC Kind of makes you wonder who these politicians are, doesn't it? [01:05] DaemonFC Indiana draws their juries from people in the voter registration database.
