Just finished watching a Jonestown Documentary and between these last two decisions the parallels are pretty clear. We’re going to force you to have kids so we can all die together.

Also realized the main reason that tragedy happened is because life is so awful for most people in :amerikkka: they’re looking for anyway out. And the U.S. embassy didn’t give a shit and allowed them to die because it was a Saturday, their day off.

People were speculating that this ruling would remove the federal government’s ability to enforce regulatory rules made by any federal agency. EPA, SEC, FAA, and that this would deligitimize the supreme court because the government was not likely to abide the ruling and many agencies were planning to ignore the ruling.

Is that still gonna happen?

I mean, what’s stopping them from ignoring the court? The court doesn’t have an army backing it up (and the Pentagon already has released statements opposing them), or a police force. It’s all on paper, no?

read this from reason. com, which breaks it down fine. Obviously they think bad things are good but for describing the technical what-happened, it does that fine.

It dealt more with the correct statutory reading of the clean air act than with the constitutional nondelegation, which is what we were scared about, which is still going to come up at some point.

and tbh I think the decision is bad for consequentialist reasons, not because the reasoning is bad. Although when I read the dissent, I find myself agreeing with that too. I agree with whatever I read last :/

It’s actually a much more restrained ruling than people were expecting, and I would bet it’s for exactly that reason.

My guess is that it will take at least one more court case, which will now be able to use this as precedent. Neat, huh?
