The California Catholic Conference opposed the law, arguing the state is "engaging in ideological colonization against states and citizens that do not want abortion."

Are ... are they trying to say CA doctors are mailing abortion pills to people who didn't ask for them? What does this statement mean? Maybe what they meant was something like: "We do not believe women have a basic right to control their body, whether those women are Catholic or not, and that control should rest with the government of the state they reside in."

Thank you for citing the passages, but I similarly to the other commenter disagree that he is saying he hates them rather than their actions.

The word hate isn't in there. I might call a gang a "brood of vipers" but that wouldn't mean I necessarily hated them.

Lastly, and for what it's worth, I'm not clear if the "Seven Woes on the Teachers of the Law and the Pharisees" are meant to be quotes of Jesus or if they are Matthew.

Still, thank you for sharing something specific and not just hand waving.

Did he? He flipped over some money lenders tables and he debated the religious leaders of the day. He may have disagreed with them but I challenge you (and I'm an atheist, I have no real horse in the race about supposedly divine beings) to find a place in the bible where jesus was described as hating anyone.

For what it's worth, as a northeastern US liberal who has adopted y'all as an inclusive way to address people, this type of reaction is one of the things that has led to Trumpism.

A bit more temperance before you condemn tons of people based on something open for interpretation like this might be a worthwhile thing to consider going forward.

At what point do we start to discuss how evil the Russian regime is? I mean, this is feeling like we are approaching the lines in the sand that we drew after WWII, if we haven't already blown past them.

I have no desire to lose more lives, but this is evil. How can any country support Russia in this?

FWIW: these types of password rules are discouraged by NIST -

1. Eliminate Periodic Resets

Many companies ask their users to reset their passwords every few months, thinking that any unauthorized person who obtained a user’s password will soon be locked out. However, frequent password changes can actually make security worse.

It’s difficult enough to remember one good password a year. And since users often have numerous passwords to remember already, they often resort to changing their passwords in predictable patterns, such as adding a single character to the end of their last password or replacing a letter with a symbol that looks like it (such as $ instead of S).

So if an attacker already knows a user’s previous password, it won’t be difficult to crack the new one. The NIST guidelines state that periodic password-change requirements should be removed for this reason.

I'm not an expert, but I think kbin could implement UI to allow you to view events (things) from those other instances.

I assume right now kbin is only looking at a handful of the types of stuff that can be shared in the fediverse.

At least, that's my layman's understanding right now.

I am an 80s child, my friend. I have seen Krull more than once. I understand what I am saying.

Yeah ... have we forgotten who JJ Abrams is?

Agree. However, if we get to the general and it's far right or democrat, I hope people choose the ancient democrat to the more fascism-friendly alternative.
