So my question is, if they reverse judge Cannon's decision to dismiss and reinstate the case, is the case back in her hands or is there a way for them to get the case reassigned through this?

Not that any of it will happen before the election now, thanks to her...but would be great to see her removed from any future proceedings.

Except that he's apparently been registered as a Republican since 2021...and he didn't enter the event.

Inform Starfleet...we have engaged the Berg.

That is a pretty big help financially... indirectly anyway.

Coaster is nice too :)

That's really nice. Was going to ask if you used dowels or biscuits, then I actually read the post. Well done. Would love to do something like this in curly maple/cherry.

I think what you said is true. But you're referring to people who have an actual handicap and are discriminated against for it.

What I'm referring to is the idea of allowing myself to believe that a people group are less intelligent than I am just because they don't align with me politically or ideologically. There is no actual handicap for which they are being discriminated against, simply having a different life experience and different view point is enough. It's ironically a deeply fascist mentality...and I agree it is everywhere.

I was mainly responding to the previous comment which characterized right-wingers as having "lesser cognitive ability". Just saying that that kind of thinking sets up a "we're superior" mentality that can too easily lead to the same kinds of consequences as thinking you're superior based on race or social status. There are so many environmental and experiential factors that go into where a person lands politically and how effective certain forms of propaganda are on them. Blanket statements that characterize entire people groups as less intelligent are not in any way accurate or helpful.

There are definitely plenty of well educated, intelligent fascists as well. It's pretty dangerous to start thinking that what separates two ideological groups is intelligence.
