    What are they going to do?

    “Corporations are people as per already established rulings.”

    “Political contributions are considered speech as per already established rulings.”

    “Hawaii is taking away poor poor corporations right to free speech under the first amendment, therefore it’s unconstitutional and will be made null and void. Have fun shoveling money at your chosen candidates corporations! Don’t forget my paycheck!”

        Not sure what the downvotes are for unless they just don’t like having a video as a response.

        I’m a bit confused on the language because he says the state the corporation was created in give them their rights, so wouldn’t any corporation not from that state be able to spend anyway?

          My thinking is that any major corporation isn’t willing to give up business in an entire state but that’s a great question and if someone has a more definitive answer I’d love to hear it.

          I believe you are correct. This is why as many states as possible need to follow suit.

            I’m not a defeatist. I called you out for spamming, which you were, cause a mod deleted your spam and the comments where you were insulting me and others.

            Your modlog is public. If you lie about it, everyone can see that you lied.

              You are a petty loser following me around and downvoting me cuz you have nothing better to do nor anything postiive to contribute. As proven by you commenting here. There’s no reason for you to comment this far down the tree unless you’ve spent all day following me.

              I posted something relevant to 5 communities. You’ve spent your day on some weird little grudge of yours.

              How pathetic are you bragging that the mods took your side?

              JEEEZUS.

              I’m glad people like you exist to remind me of what I am not.

                  Congrats on being blocked by one of if not the most pathetic, ignorant, and obnoxious users I’ve seen on Lemmy, in any community or instance for a hot minute.

                    Yeah, there’s only like three hundred people here and we all know each other.

                    It’s why I like this place, it’s small and tight-knit, which means people are usually incentivized to be nice to each other.

                    Usually.

                  I thought you left me unblocked because I might have something good to say? Clearly that was just a disingenuous lie and your just a weirdo.

                  Either way I unblocked you to call you out for being a loser and stalking my profile all day to downvote me.
