Exactly. People forget this about our appellate courts too often. For every can they hear there will be much more lower trial courts hear and will try and relate to the higher court's case. An appellate court trying to solve every case in front of them in the most fair way ensures more cases will end unfairly.
The video that Newsom referenced was designed to be a political commentary and is clearly not Harris expressing her self. Newsom having said that the video was what he wanted to ban is really shooting his case in the foot.
Tim, dude, seriously. Actively arguing that it is appropriate to preferential treatment or negative treatment towards people on the basis of race. While claiming a law that shows no favors to anyone on the basis of race is like the words of hate groups.
There's a broad distinction between letting people express themselves in their own free time and supporting systemic race based discrimination. Nobody is stopping straight people from going out and expressing themselves.
You are clearly the one with the bad faith stance. Seriously stop once, and in a moment of humility consider if it is you who might be wrong.
I would recommend you read his concurrence before you make comments as to the nature of his argument. I get it's a lengthy one at 58 pages but as you seem to suggest in your comment strawmanning people in not a good practice.

But if that's too long I'll try and summarize with a few lines from it.
"The Constitution abhors classifications based on race, not only because those classifications can harm favored races or are based on illegitimate motives, but also because every time the government places citizens on racial registers and makes race relevant to the provision of burdens or benefits, it demeans us all."
"enunciated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States: that all men are created equal, are equal citizens, and must be treated equally before the law."
"“[o]ur Constitution is color-blind, and neither knows nor tolerates classes among citizens.” Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U. S. 537, 559 (1896) (Harlan, J., dissenting)."
And here's the reading of a portion:

Just as it is wrong for white people to benefit from preferential treatment over black people who were detrimented (such as under slavery or Jim Crow). It is wrong for black people to benefit from preferential treatment over asian people who were detrimented (such as under Japanese interment or the Chinese exclusion act).
-
You aren't allowed to / really shouldn't be say it if you aren't Black.
-
Presumably under this notion someone anonymous who says it should be abiding that cultural norm.
-
Meaning that if an anonymous person is saying it and you expect them to abide that norm it'd be reasonable to assume they're Black.
I've watched a few of his videos and they've all been very interesting. I'd recommend some of his coverage on Native American/Indian issues.
He also did good job showing the border situation from the lenses of people from every side of it (migrants, cartel coyotes, local sheriffs, & cities hosting the migrants). It highlights how dogmatism of politicians is hurting ordinary people.
The swastika on German Nazi flags were black. Of course they also were mostly red (and had a white circle).
Red, white, and black is definitely a choice though. Maybe picking a color that wasn't on the Nazi flag would have been better for this sticker.
CA banned race base admission in the '90s in favor of a system that guaranteed admissions to top percentile students.
Post Students for Fair Admissions, schools can’t use race alone as a plus or minus nation wide. Like California has been doing it for the past 3 decades.
Universities’ recent experiences confirm the efficacy of a colorblind rule. To start, universities prohibited from engaging in racial discrimination by state law continue to enroll racially diverse classes by race-neutral means. For example, the University of California purportedly recently admitted its “most diverse undergraduate class ever,” despite California’s ban on racial preferences.
(THOMAS, J., concurring) (arguing universities can consider “[r]ace-neutral policies” similar to those adopted in States such as California and Michigan, and that universities can consider “status as a first-generation college applicant,” “financial means,” and “generational inheritance or otherwise”)
Thomas goes on and calls out the issue legacy admissions in his lengthy concurrence.
Worse, the classifications that JUSTICE JACKSON draws are themselves race-based stereotypes. She focuses on two hypothetical applicants, John and James, competing for admission to UNC. John is a white, seventh-generation legacy at the school, while James is black and would be the first in his family to attend UNC. Post, at 3. JUSTICE JACKSON argues that race-conscious admission programs are necessary to adequately compare the two applicants. As an initial matter, it is not clear why James’s race is the only factor that could encourage UNC to admit him; his status as a first-generation college applicant seems to contextualize his application. But, setting that aside, why is it that John should be judged based on the actions of his great-great-great-grandparents?

That marked a steep jump from 41.7% at the end of last year and more than double the 26% just seven years ago,
I'm not sure I'd chalk it up to 10 months of presidency as much as the past administrations mistakes.
Kinda like that time the king of England took away Massachusetts' legislatures. But I have a feeling the king here will fair better this go around.
Why am I just now finding out Antarctica has foliage? What the hell Blue Planet and David Attenborough? This is big. Are we looking at normal plants? Or have we got special antarctic plants. It says lichen and moss. But how far back do they evolutionary diverge? Do these fellas have some sort of adaptation that helps them live in their niche?
