As you noted, fans whine about Luke having doubts in himself & the Force in VIII. By contrast, Solo takes the wisecracking bad boy who learned to care about something bigger and insists he actually began with a heart of gold and just reverted. He didn't learn or grow through friendship, he regressed

I would argue that Solo was an even worse offender than IX.

Unnecessary origins of Han Solo's name, blaster, friendships with Chewie and Lando, ownership of the Falcon, the Kessel Run, his cynical self-interested attitude... And then Maul pops up as the cherry on the sundae

I care about civil rights. I've been an NYCLU supporter.

Why exactly are you advocating for a cold blooded murderer? You can't point out issues with the city govt without lionizing a killer? Seriously?

It was wrong

The tweet on the right is still up. Hours before your post, the ADL posted the following

Not sure who told you they were hiding this criticism. I suggest rigorously fact checking whoever that was now

Actually, they are opposing him now. They posted statements criticizing the appointment on all of their socials before you posted this

Gotta fact check random social media posts

I think it's so cool that we elected a guy who would stop sanctioning violent settlers. With the help of anti-Israel activists, naturally

Thomas wrote in his Dobbs concurrence that Obergefell is on the chopping block. You wanna bet on how ACB or Alito feel?

He, of course, also listed Griswold v CT (contraception) and Lawrence v TV (sodomy)

But we should assume they've actually dropped these hobby horses?

Vance opposed the Respect for Marriage Act two (2!) years ago

"Asked about same-sex marriage, Vance has pointed to the position of the Catholic church, which officially opposes it"
www.cleveland.com/election/202...

AG nom Pam Bondi called gay marriage a "serious public harm" in '14. No pivot since

I mean... They spoke out of both sides of their mouth on every one of these issues. By definition, they lied. Did they lie about plans to cut these programs and encroach upon these rights? Or did they lie about protecting them? This remains to be seen. But they said both things on all of them.

The RSC plan also proposes Social Security cuts

Trump's proposed tax changes would drive SS to insolvency and trigger benefit cuts much faster

Project 2025 doesn't say much but it was written by SS cuts + privatization advocates

Trump's pick to run Medicare publicly proposed "Medicare Advantage for All," a fully privatized system

He maintained that view in his 2022 Senate run

Just this year, the RSC proposed a "premium support model" mirroring Ryan's proposal

Elected Republicans + judicial conservatives still oppose gay marriage, want to kill Social Security & Medicare, and hope to ban abortion.

Trump famously *did not* say he'd veto an abortion ban. He wouldn't say how he'd vote on the FL abortion referendum.

They pretend they pivoted. They have not.

Vance, in the VP debate, told an emotional story about a friend who needed an abortion. He said Republicans had to win back trust on the issue. He denied supporting an abortion ban, which he has. And then... He didn't say the admin would oppose an abortion ban! It was all lying and tap dancing.

As for Dodd-Frank, part of the reduced zeal to repeal can be attributed to the 2018 successful watering down with legislation and regulation

I expect we'll see more pro-banking regs/deregulation and executive actions

It's entirely possible that the House and/or Senate GOP won't have the votes for ACA repeal, but it seems clear that it's still on the Republican agenda/wishlist www.cnn.com/2024/10/30/p...

They just pretend it's not during elections because ACA is popular now (though "Obamacare" remains less so)
