For the reasons you listed, among many even more fundamental ones, the would never pass, and if it did, it's unenforceable.

It's not to fire up the conservative base. It's to fire you up.

It's just bait to shape their strawman "screeching liberal" archetype. They want pictures of blue haired college LGBTQ folks frothing at the mouth, chanting "death to Republicans"

That's all the Republicans do. It's all they've done for 40 years. They're never FOR anything they're just AGAINST the ENEMY. Sometimes they get one dropped into their laps like on 9/11. Sometimes they gotta make their own. Communists. Immigrants.

At this point, they're even happy to create their own out of queer college liberals. They were NEVER EVER going to vote R anyway. They know they can stir a REE out of them with legislation like this and then use the response as fodder for "America used to be strong and now it's full of soyboy cucks."

The arrogance of the Democrats is that they think Republican politicians are just stupid. Some are, but like if they're so dumb, why haven't the Dems been able to get more than 8 years? If your opponent is borderline mentally impaired, but you're neck in neck in what is absolutely a competition of wits, what HARD reality are you failing to accept?

You want to know how to defuse the strategy? Don't take the bait. It'd be one thing if it was in any way real. It isn't. Don't take the clickbait. Don't feed the trolls. Don't let someone take a picture of anyone with blue hair having a meltdown.

It’s so dumb, but this I’d the same base that was excited about Mexico paying for the wall.

Same group. They just changed their target from black people to woke people.

Send them to Somalia, where they can experience a truly small government country with very conservative social views.

The ICC in The Hague will probably bar tha- what? they don't recognise that court? Oh well.

Good luck over there.

Even worse: people who object to genocide should be forced to go to a war zone unarmed. And not just any war zone, one completely controlled by a fascist apartheid regime whose armed forces are deliberately targeting aid workers, healthcare workers, journalists and other unarmed people either keeping Palestinians alive, showing the world what the regime is doing, or both.

It's just the price they pay for my freedom. /s

The GOP is a literal fascist party. Political violence is their bread and butter.

have you skipped the part where they're arguing that in trump's trial too

at least they're consistent... consistently violent and undemocratic, but consistent

Ordinarily, I'd agree with you, but the IDF is intentionally targeting aid workers, so even if they let you in, they may well murder you for trying to help save Palestinian lives.

Not saying that you shouldn't still help if you're willing to risk your life to save lives, just that you REALLY need to know what you're signing up for and that forcing anyone to is ABSOLUTELY cruel and unusual punishment and almost definitely itself a war crime.

Doubtful, given that the fraternities have collaborated with the police in harassing and assaulting campus protesters.

A viral video circulating on X revealed that several Jewish fraternity members at Arizona State University were seen assisting police officers in throwing away ASU’s “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” materials while police arrested 69 people on Saturday

“I don’t want to see my campus fall to divestment of donors for the actions of a few loud mouthed hamas supporters. This is America,” he continued. “I should not be told I’m not allowed on campus because of my race or religion. After traveling to Poland, the Warsaw Ghetto uprising was prevalent in my mind if only regular people had acted sooner. It’s our duty to help keep our freedoms secure. Jews should not have to feel threatened to hide on campus, when they call for ‘Jewish genocide,’ the answer was extremely clear: help the police.”
