"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
As someone who has to regularly remind myself not to be too hard on weird things in French, I think you just needed to learn a new word. They’re different words.
pointing out the hypocrisy means nothing to these people. their entire philosophy is about making it legally not a hypocrisy. they want laws that protect them and don't limit them while they have an other that the laws don't protect but do limit.
This has come to be known as 'Wilhoit's Law,' based on an online comment from a music composer:
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
Just so everyone is aware, this bill was previously introduced Oct 2023 and reported by news late Nov/early Dec 2023 and looks like it was reintroduced March 4, 2025.
The bill is called Safeguarding Free Speech Act. The below link was what I could find about it.

I hope that doesn't pass, but if it does they should remove the "Ted" part off the next ballot. His constituents will be like "Who tf is Rafael?"
Edit: spelling
… and why hasn’t ICE gotten him by now?
And there are photos on the internet of him covered in tattoos!
Well... I'M not gonna be the one that has to check.
every accusation is a confession
Probably because he self-deported to Cancun
He's of cuban descent. Thankfully not one of us (Mexicans). Fuck that pos

Useful idiot
Which ballet is next? The Nutcracker?
😝 Damn English. Inconsistent Frankenstein language.

yep, that's the quote i was poorly paraphrasing.
It does help prevent more people from falling under their spell. It just needs to be done on every issue.

Fun facts about Rafael: he likes incest porn, and he once tried to win a debate by eating his own boogers.
STEP incest porn. Let they who have not gooned to Cory Chase throw the first stone.
Had to google her, don't recognize her. Here's my thrown stone. Don't look at the glass castle behind me.
It makes the moderator really uncomfortable, particularly because Rafael has a bad habit of talking with his mouth full.
*Sen. Rafael Edward Cruz (He/Rep)
Good thing she doesn't have preferred pronouns, either.
He is Rafael from now on. No matter what.
Lol he really doesn't want his state to think that he's Hispanic. He wants them to think he's as Spanish as Tom Cruise. Wonder why.
San Antonio mentioned - let's gooooo!
I'm nb and my chosen name is a short form of my middle name. I wonder how he'd feel about that.
You're more "correct" than he is, since "Ted" isn't anywhere in his name!
Ummm...
His middle name is Tedward
I thought it was short for Theodward.
Drives?
"Ted" is short for "Theodore," not "Edward."
EDIT: I stand corrected.
It's both, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted
Oh, okay, I've never known any Edwards who use "Ted." One of those weird things like William -> Bill or Richard -> Dick, I guess.
Just to note, I'm in no way backing Cruz, he's a deplorable waste of space. Fuck em.
Oh, I know! I appreciate being corrected.
Edward 'Ted' Kennedy was another.
I like to call Theodores "Odor". It's right there in the name!
There's an H, too, so go for the full "Hodor!"
Just refer to him as Sñr Cruz , doesn't matter that it should be Sr if it was Mr and that "Senator" doesn't have a "ny" sound.
I prefer to call him "Rafist".
I honestly had no idea his real name until this.
