We “banned” alcohol for 13 years.
America’s greatest battle is with our dark religious past. We claim to be secular but really it’s an aspiration.
there are absolutely no reason to ban it, because that only causes more harm.
somehow many people on Earth have a remarkable resistance to nuance.

It’s time to move on.

The alcohol consumption statistics of certain ME states strongly disprove your thesis.
Apparently you’ve never been to Baltimore. There is no dark religious past haunting that city, just corrupt politicians.
Baltimore has 10,000,000 people. The United States is larger by a factor of thirty three.
Baltimore has a population of 600k not 10m, you're off by a factor of 13
I expect most only complain about corruption because the basics aren’t being delivered, not out of a sense of civic responsibility.
This has so many holes in it you’re making Swiss cheese look rational.
> I expect most only complain about corruption because the basics aren’t being delivered, not out of a sense of civic responsibility.
I expect you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.
That's as batshit crazy as recent assertions that nothing the courts rule can be sexist; after all, women would just run for seats on the supreme court if they cared; they're a majority of the population, after all.
Since the nonsense in the last paragraph actually came from a recent supreme court majority opinion, I'm wondering if you can point to a supreme court ruling backing up your statement.
What say you
We are talking an adults private photos, not a billboard on the freeway.
1)Government makes companies liable for hosted third party content
2)Companies set up workflows to detect said content
3)???
4)Blame capitalism
How do you know those nudes are taken consensually? And what's your liability for developing ("reproducing") them?
> You can't even take a photo of your own kid.
You missed the part where we're discussing a sub-topic off that story, someone's experience working in a photo store, and the policies in place there.
> Why would you assume a crime by default?
I assume you mean "you" as in a photo store that finds such negatives in a job order, and not me directly?
Because as I said, your liability or even reputation if this isn't from something legal, is not worth the profit made.
