What are the benefits of moving to big mastodon instances?

Tonight at 8 pm est on Fox, Gov. Ron DeSantis, FL (yes, there’s more than one governor in America) and former Sen. Jim DeMint on Life, Liberty & Levin.  If you’re unable to watch it Live you can always DVR the show. I hope you’re having a wonderful Easter! twitter.com/marklevinshow/stat

Well, that needs to change, then.

I'm not sure what the difference is between being born with rights and being given them by God tho.

It goes like this; three are freedoms people can have. Freedom of speech is one of them. A government can choose to revoke as many of these as they wish, depending on its structure. If a government revokes one of them, either completely or partially (right to private property, for instance, is slightly revoked by taxes and gun laws), they still have the remaining freedoms.

Of course, I completely understand if one feels that if one freedom is removed, they don't have freedom. For you, perhaps, it's killing babies. For me, it would definitely be freedom of speech and religion. But the reality of distinct freedoms must not be forgotten.

@anornymorse
Of course.

You can have varying degrees of freedom, and it's highly erroneous to say you either have complete freedom or none at all.

I do see the issue. This is one that we're actually wrestling with in the midst of the . I do not, however, fall into the fallacy that people either have complete bodily autonomy, or none at all.

@anornymorse @dsfgs @kick @mewmew @shampoobottle @nerdman @a7

They oftentimes follow through on the guarantee tho.

What do police officers do? Do they run around promising rights to people? Or are they enforcing the law?

@anornymorse @dsfgs @kick @mewmew @shampoobottle @nerdman @a7

Well, if this is the case, it's too late, the US government must have already stated a claim on us, because it enforces laws. Your point is moot.
