Well there are some shills here today. So that’s prolly some of the downvotes and a few well meaning pedes are very immature and downvote anything that isn’t Pollyanna super duper “yes! I’m not worried at all!”
True on the shills. As far as the overly enthusiastic, it was not in any way meant to be a doomer post. It's important to have a rounded perspective on all the ways this could be beneficial for us or negative.
Appreciate your response, thanks for the perspective
Just a from the hip opinion, but I would say the significance is the court is taking President Trump's filing seriously, rather than let it linger until there's not really enough time for a further bump to SCOTUS.
Yes but there's also such a thing as getting tired of gloom & doom, concern and worry, looking for how this could be bad, negative negative negative. So some people could understandably downvote for negativity. We, like any fighting force, need morale boosting positivity, IMHO, rather than seeking more things to worry about. Yes all facts are welcome not only positive ones...but attaching negative energy and emotion to them accomplishes nothing. (Not stating anyone in this thread did that, speaking generally)
By the way, I'm not "worried" at all. Fuck that. Worry is just wasted mental energy. If you're worried, you're paying attention to the wrong people and what they say, and inducing stress on yourself.
Consider:
If you worry and the bad thing never happens (which is 95% of the time), then you wasted all that time and energy worrying for nothing.
If you worry and the bad thing happens anyway (despite your best worrying efforts), then you wasted all that time and energy worrying for nothing.
Trump himself said, and I quote, "Don't worry." :)
I just down voted you and I'm grateful for the privilege this site accords me to do it, we don't censor each other with ridicule here. Everyone's opinion is just as good as yours and your friend.

So a mix. Don’t take it to heart.

I think SCOTUS is the goal. So the quicker it moves the better.

That's a good point, thank you!
