An egg replacement is not an egg. If you're about to downvote me, so why do you disagree?

*FREEDUMS!

Atheists really says this and think they got their "gotcha moment" lmao

Ha he, yes I get you, and Greg Abbott sucks!

I'm gonna blow your mind here.

There's a difference between not being able to prove something because it's untrue, and being unable to prove something something because it's a negative statement.

Going back to the analogy, you can prove that somebody beats their wife, people do that all the time, but if they don't beat their wife then that's a pretty significant obstacle to that undertaking, and it's not because you're making a statement that would require you have every moment of this dude's life recorded from birth to present day in order to come to a definite conclusion.

You can't prove that unicorns don't exist because the data required for that would be too comprehensive. We haven't observed all of existence. But you can't prove that unicorns do exist, because they don't. You can prove that squirrels exist, by looking out your window, and pointing at the squirrel. Proving the existence of something isn't inherently an impossible achievement.

Proving that something exists and is "one" would obviously need some further work to define what qualities being "one" describes, but that's provable, but only if it's true, as opposed to the reverse, which is fundamentally unprovable without completely unfeasible amounts of evidence.

Have you ever been in an evangelical church? They aren't rogues. They're just the ones who don't care about keeping the mask on.

Extremist Christianity is a threat. Period.

Those are rogues, not mainstream and widely accepted like it is for the beheading religion

You can thank GE for that one. Vote with your dollars!

I bought 6 chicks for $4.99 ea at the beginning of the pandemic. 3 years later we're averaging 3 to 5 eggs a day when they're not molting. Kids love the experience. The eggs are delicious. A 50 lb. bag of feed lasts a month and only costs $15. It lasts even longer during the warm months. So my cost is less than 50 cents a day. Great investment, they're all Plymouth Barred Rock hens from Tractor Supply

No, they tend to prefer bombings like Oklahoma City, or shootings.

I mean, they're assholes, but they don't go around beheading people for insulting Jesus.

Not yet anyway.

The funny thing is that the Biden admin supports Erdogan and even looked the other way while they commit genocide of the Kurds.

"god haters club" Better than the "I believe in unicorns club"

LOL someone probably called you out and now you are trying to use it on someone else, but you only end up proving that you STILL don't understand the concept.

Oh look you're a typical christo reactionary.

Plant based eggs are called fruit.

This sounds so British

Look how good that worked for racism!

The societal shift starts by being intentional with our thoughts and words. Then that leads to being more intentional with our actions.

> That was scheduled to happen last Thursday and was interrupted by various people," said Johnston, "So they stopped on Thursday."

It sounds like activists or the homeless managed to disrupt the clearance one day and somehow magically thought that meant it wouldn't continue. And it's not like someone wouldn't be aware of heavy machinery use--this pretty much has to be willful blindness to get scooped up.

I thought God had legions of angels or something

The down votes are an indication of how many people don't get the pun.

Yeah I definitely get the intended purpose, I just think there's going to have to be societal shift for it to have the effect that it is supposed to have. The people who think that renaming things is dumb are going to continue to use the old terminology and continue to be negative and the people who choose to use the new terminology were probably already respectful anyways.

Either way, I appreciate the time that you spent to explain it. Just wish that we had better results in practice.

But it does matter. The key thing here is that the law is designed to protect both intellectual property AND free speech rights, and in general it does a good job at it. So any individual lawsuit, like this one, shouldn't be condemned for a precedent reason, it should be judged on its own merits. It doesn't in itself damage future scenarios.

The Garbage Pail Kids lawsuit was for trademark violation, not copyright, which means different laws applies. Parody didn't enter into it, it was a straight commercial issue. Uri Geller lost in California, I believe, and the decision made by Nintendo was to avoid possibly losing in other countries. It may or may not have been a "good" decision, but it didn't set precedent.

Comedians doing a parody would probably be safe under fair use, even if it was commercial. Comedy skits parodying movies would definitely be safe because they're transformative - it's a totally different kind of parody. So yes, there are legitimate cases where you can make money off it.

If the courts decide it was sufficiently transformative, then Black Eyes Peas will lose. Leave it to them to decide.
