If a law should apply, it should apply regardless of how people feel about following it. If the law infringes on liberty, it should be repealed.

So we should be able to force Muslim and Jewish inmates to eat pork in prison simply because that was the cheapest thing the state could foist on them that week?

Quakers and Mennonites should be forced to sign up for the draft?

I don’t think as much actual policy is based on rationality, science, and evidence as you think it is. Even the non-religious exemption stuff.

Socialism

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.
