The common law is a grab bag of rights that our founders built our Constitution around. A SCOTUS justice actually found a right to privacy in there that the Founders overlooked. Well I have another....discrimination. That is a rather broad term that covers virtually all our decision making and thus we should be wary of the slippery slope of giving the fed the right of making discriminatory decisions for us. And censorship is a case in point. Seems the fed has taken it on itself to determine what we see and what we agree/disagree with on the internet. So the answer to this problem it seems to me is not to address the each problem of fed interference incrementally but to impose on the fed strict rules governing its ability to govern discrimination. That way we do not have Uncle Sam making our choices from a take out menu.

The Left co-opted the word discrimination a long time ago. But individual discernment or judgement in determining personal decisions life should not be thwarted by government laws or decrees by the judiciary. However, that was snuffed out long ago with the draft. and most recently with SCOTUS and state court decisions on related Covid mandates. There is always something like health or security that will trump personal decision. Now on those jabs . . . .
