The opinion, if it stands by the end of the SCOTUS term in June would also overturn the decision in Planned Parenthood V. Casey. In the draft which was apparently published...
Elon Musk “Stop Hitting On Me” Response To Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Shows He Has The Maturity Of A Teen
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Anadolu Agency / Getty A lot of people are understandably concerned about Elon Musk‘s purchase of Twitter because we all know that when privileged white men start talking about “freedom of speech,” they tend to be specifically fighting for the freedom to be ignorant, bigoted and prone to ridiculous conspiracy theories that trade critical thinking for pseudo-intellectualism. And if Musk was looking to prove that he isn’t trying to return the platform to its pre-Trump ban roots of being a dumping ground for remedial dude-bros with all the intellectual prowess of a deer galloping toward headlights, he’s not getting off to a good start with his response to congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
