10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
The arts, sciences, research and education are free.
Article 5, paragraph 3, sentence 1 of the German constitution. Every article I read about Florida makes me appreciate that more.
Improtantly, article 5, paragraph 3 has two senteces: " The arts, sciences, research and education are free. The freedom of education does not release from the loyalty to the constitution"
Furthermore, this freedom of "research and education" means "scientific research and education" and thus primarily prohibits the German state of deciding what is researched and thaugt at universities. There are state mandated curricula for all public schools.
Can someone explain to me how this is legal? I literally have no idea how in America the government is allowed to take away our rights and freedoms.
The writers of the Constitution never expected wealth and corruption like we have today... So they didn't explicitly plan against it, which Republicans use as a right to do anything..
They absolutely did, they were the wealthy class and wrote the Constitution to benefit them more heavily then anyone else. What you're seeing is that compounded by time and leftward progression. The right freaking the fuck out is because they see if they don't correct back to 1860 they're going to be irrelevant grumpy old men screaming at the sky for being closer then in their youth.
Maybe a war/coup would help?
