For all those (including me) who are freaking out about the so-called "birth right citizenship" ruling

[choie]

This will talk you dowm. The ruling isn't about birth right citizenship. A wise man explains.

1. Doesn't matter

SCOTUS handcuffed the lower courts.

3. They limited their ability to implement a national injunction.

2. People need to stop getting their news from social media

I am not sure I have seen so much clickbait surrounding a ruling in my life. Reddit is almost entirely unreadable right now. People just going off about a decision they have not read and clearly do not understand.

It’s like people sit around all day waiting for social media to instruct them how to think and feel about the issues of the day, and then they go out into the world and repeat what they’ve been told to repeat.

Yes, we worry about the courts and Trump eroding democracy - but plenty of citizens seem very willing to give it a push by willfully remaining misinformed at all times.

4. Noise

He lost me when you called a critic stupid. I do appreciate the perspective, though, thank you.

5. Yep I believe he is correct....................

Birthright Citizenship is being litigated right now in the District Court.

Do I believe the 6 RWers would do the right thing? The trust factor is -0-.
