Elections are next year. Including NC Supreme Court judges. Meck and Wake counties need to show up and vote.
As North Carolina's supreme court rolls back civil rights, it has quietly re-introduced an odd rule to provide cover: Requiring claimants to prove that statutes are unconstitutional "beyond a reasonable doubt."
The dissenting liberals in this case did not question this standard--but they should🧵

![In reviewing the constitutionality of this statute, we must “presume that [it] is constitutional.” State v. Tirado, No. 267PA21, slip op. at 14 (N.C. Jan. 31, 2025). Furthermore, we may strike it down only if “it violate[s] the express constitutional -6- STATE V. CHAMBERS Opinion of the Court text” and its unconstitutionality is demonstrated “beyond a reasonable doubt.” Id. at 17–18. “Every constitutional inquiry examines the text of the relevant provision, the historical context in which the people of North Carolina enacted it, and this Court’s precedents interpreting it.” Id. at 18.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lvzlku7pfr7kqlhxsibry4oj/bafkreifnfsp7ocds2rnvhrjzj5mfvyrz75tzk5p6cv55key7t7cq7yxnjq@jpeg)

This should be the top headline everywhere. This is terrifying.
It basically takes any recourse that humans have against AI and throws it out the window.
It’s a complete transfer of power from humans to tech companies.

From page 292 of the GOP budget bill, the start of the section which wants to prohibit states regulation AI tech and such for 10 years. Which should be raising more red flags, and frankly, in light of things like surveillance and the way in which trust can be eroded (like if a news report/1

We can’t let an immunity law like this happen again. How can we repeat the mistakes of Section 230?!
If this passes, I hope every Dem who has a CS background posts deepfakes of GOP legislators making love to goats.

I find this data pretty distressing. More people think the US is headed in the right direction now than in 2017.
This seems to me that until we get rid of alt facts and filter bubbles, we will never be unified (or at least largely unified).

Listening to an NRF webinar where lawyers are advising retailers to not put tariff surcharges on bills lest they get sued for “junk fees.”
Retailers are held to way higher standards than healthcare providers. I wish I could contest most of my medical bills as “junk fees.”

Silly theories on the deliberate market crash which Buffet denied anyway.
No tech king has kissed the ring or bought a $20mm mansion to have their valuation crater.
The business community will give it a few months. If there isn’t a clear plan, we’ll see sentiment turn.

As the merit > diversity actions are happening, does that also apply to the 70% of high school valedictorians who are girls? Because the top universities weight their classes for gender and it’s now harder for girls to get in than boys.
Or do we only care about merit when it supports patriarchy?
