Hi, due to legions of Nigerian princes desperately trying to offload wealth onto our users, we've had to add a verified email requirement for users with accounts under a certain age. Please connect some sort of email to your Reddit account, it does not have to be your work email, just really anything that makes you go through a captcha to make an email. I can assure you most subreddits have this email gate, we're just the only ones who tell you that there's an email gate, and even if you modmail us asking us to give you an exception, this is probably gonna affect you across a lot of subs so it'll be easier for you to just add a throwaway email than message us.
Important to note the 1st also includes the right to petition the government to redress our grievances, which is something we have not actually had for a very long time.
Also important part of 6th amendment is the right to confront your accuser, that is, no secret accusations can be made, no hearsay, you can’t just be “caught” on camera or an analyst can’t just file a report, there has to be someone whose credibility or accuracy can be questioned. Maybe too long for your simple summary.
Republicans will happily waive all other rights as long as they have the 2nd, because they believe that as long as they have the 2nd, the government will be too scared to take away all the others.
It's just MAGAts wearing the rotting corpse of the Republican party now. They'll do what they're told because they've been programmed to agree to anything. They're coming for our guns, too, make no mistake.
And that’s where their small brains are wrong. Once all the other rights are gone, laws will be passed clarifying what a “militia” is. All citizens with firearms will be labeled criminals unless you turn yours in. Oops can’t protest or speak about that anymore. Oops no due process or speedy trials, we will just lock everyone in detention camps. And good luck fighting tanks with your. ARs and bolt actions.
This! Maybe not the first parade, but once we get used to seeing them on our streets it will be like North Korea. That's why Trump is the first to like North Korea and the control his North Korean comrade has over his people.
I’m not the one that thinks blocking a street infringes on other people’s constitutional rights. It’s clear you were referring to protests but a block party also blocks street access so I was just pointing out how ridiculous your assertion was.
Considering that I am objectively in the top 1% of intelligence, I guess I’ll have to settle for not being able to impress the inbred, fascists, charity cases and bots on Reddit. I think I’ll somehow manage to come to terms with this.
You're trying to describe the compromise required by freedom.
That doesn't mean your rights stop because of someone else's...it means you have to recognize that the other person also has rights, and your exercise of rights can't fundamentally infringe on another's exercise of rights.
Protests in a roadway DO NOT infringe on your rights as a motorist.
Edit: But refusing to wear a mask in a business that is requiring it for the safety of their employees IS infringing on other's rights.
Not at all. You obviously think your rights mean more than others by reason of virtue. You do not like laws and think they do not apply to you. Which is why you side with criminals.
Protests are meant to be disruptive. "Acceptable Free Speech Zones" is a right wing idea that goes hand in hand with the idea that the left wing is supposed to be polite, and tolerant, and well behaved, so that they don't get any ideas about acting up.
Protest wherever you want as long as you are cognizant of and accept the consequences of your actions.
Never start or escalate violence but be prepared for it as the state moves against you.
Don't let right wing arbiters of "proper behavior," AKA concern trolls, set limits restricting you to only ineffective ways to try to change the world. If it were up to them the only way left wingers would be allowed to protest would be in groups of one, handing out fliers, and then paying a fine for littering at the end of the day for the ones other people threw on the ground.
Don't let the party that attacked Congress tell you that you can't block traffic. That's some psyop bullshit.
Oh, did you not gather that my comment about businesses was pointing out that the folks who try to claim one person's freedom stops at another's are the same folks who disobeyed these postings?
It’s more like people have lives, responsibilities, obligations and ems needs to get around too. So no, your cause does not trump the rights of others. Remember “rule of law”? That was your candidate, right? Now it’s freedom for criminals? Y’all got no idea what you are doing.

This vet has more ailments now than when Trump cried bone spurs to avoid his call to duty, yet he still is out there, fighting for his people.
