I assume it would be both jus soli and jus sanguinis

If you a born there, you were a Californian Citizen.

If you were there when they declare independendence, you were a Citizen (similar to the US Constitution, where everyone became citizen of the US if they were in tge 13 colonies at the moment it came into force, even if they just arrived from England).

If weren’t there when they ratify the New Californian Republic Constitution, and you weren’t born there, and you don’t have parent’s born there, then you’d probabaly not be a citizen.

They’ll probably also look at CA state tax record and might give citizenship if you’ve lived there for X amount of years preceeding the ratification of the Californian Constitution.

I think its also possible California doesn’t become an independent country, but form a different “United States” with other Blue states.

Authoritarian is when stuff gets done.

Okay, bigot maga defender. How much have your master trump got done?

id.me has joined the chat

Okay so. Say. There is 2 weeks without power, sudden and unannounced, unpredicted power outage. How will you get food and stuff?

So if people can’t get essential stuff, there would be fear, and with fear, riots are likely to happen. Doesn’t matter how “civilized” or “developed” a country is, everyone has their breaking point.

Fun fact: There’s technically a right to free speech in the constitution of the People’s Republic of China. But we all know how that goes.

Just like with any rule in any society; without enforcement, they are nothing but merely the words of people. ahem USA ahem

What even is the point of “representing your district” if they could just nominate a random person from across the country that never before stepped foot in that district?

There’s too much lies in the world, I kinda developed a sort of “solipcistic” view of the world.

If I never witnessed it, I categorize it as “potentially false”.

Of course, the entire news could be just fabricated. Nobody can tell for sure.

Anything beyond my immediate sorroundings could just be a stage. I could be in a truman show with everything I see being a deception, or in other terms “propaganda”.

I’m not saying that everything isn’t real, I just feel like that possibility should be entertained, to keep in mind as a potential possible explanation of what appears to be reality. Just as how a nation can lie to its people about reality, even the people closest to you, your parents, could also just be liars as well.

People never question if they are, in fact, the biological children of their parents, and just assume they are. That is another form of “propaganda”. People just accept their parent’s words as truth.

Propaganda is certainly everywhere. You cannot be sure what is real, other than the fact that “you” exist, in some form.

When I read the premise, I was instantly hooked, on the plot not characters, but eventually characters too. Never even turned it away. I was dealing with an existential crisis at the time and that why I loved it.

BORTLES 🍾🔥

Oh maybe I’ll try again. I was kinda turned off and stopped before the end of season one.

I mean, go ahead, arrest all democratic governors. More supporting evidence for asylum claims.

Maybe California would finally become a republic, and perhaps become the new “beacon of freedom” (well it was better than the last “beacon of freedom” anyways)

Invade? More like form a union. The Germany-Italy type.

So… my phone was out of battery, so I pulled out my power bank and connected the cable to my phone, but then I was feeling like I’m connecting two parts of an explosive device, I instinctively said, loudly:

“BOMB PLANTED”

Now the entire plane is staring at me like I’m some sort of criminal.

Lol the second community has been locked for a while

Probably nothing revolutionary.

But if you don’t believe the propaganda, you’d probably enjoy life more.

For example: there literally a list of steam games that some far-right nutjob compiled that declares a lot of games to be “Woke” or “DEI”. Imagine how much fun they miss out on because they are so far up the kool aid cult and actually refuses to play those games.

And other times, it can save you from a lot of misery and perhaps save your life. See: Anti-Vax and Anti-Science propaganda. If you are able to see through that bullshit, you wouldn’t die from a stupid horse dewormer or other psudoscience crap.

“You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.” -Mahatma Gandhi

The fight might not be right here, right this moment, but you can pass along the torch, the spirit.

Teach your children to be skeptical of the authorities, and be vigilent of propaganda. If they are getting involved in a “Hitler Youth” equivalvent, you’d intervene and stop them.

Treach kindness and empathy, but also decisiveness when the time comes to stand against injustice.

And also, pick your fights carefully, do not do this alone. Do not become a foolish dead hero, become a successful revolutionary. (Underground Movements)

Don’t let them imprison your mind.

TLDR: The best you can do is just refuse to regurgitate the same propaganda. This is a passive thing that is, while subtle, an important part of the resistance.

Oh no. I guess disneyland employees are sick freaks. 😱

Looking at the 2024 election results. I guess not. 😞

But 1/3 of eligible voters didn’t even vote, so is that really about critical thinking? Or is it just laziness?

United Provinces of Canada?

I mean, honestly, I’m questioning if anything my parents told me is even real, or is it just exaggerated to make themselves seem like great parents in order to diminish my view on their toxicity.

It’s hard to distinguish between what’s a genuine doubt from a conspiracy theory.

That’s the thing with people.

Some have zero skepticism, and believe everything they see.

Others are overly skeptical and distrusts everything, including science.

It’s hard to find the right balance.

Sire, how does this “Smartphone” fuction? The Royal Scientists are unable to replicate this technology.

Laptop manufacturers are also looking to move away from windows to a linux bases operating system.

Redstar OS it is 😉
