studying political science means every day i go online and see people spouting off nonsense and people believing them
#liv won't shut up#after roe v wade was overturned i saw quite a bit of stuff everywhere that drove me insane#& not just anti women stuff no there are people that might have good intentions posting stuff that clearly know nothing about scotus#my favorite was when someone (i dont remember if it was here facebook twitter or whatever) said that scotus cant ever overturn overturning#is illegal. & i'm sitting here blown away by that bc i hate to break it to you but 1 of the most important scotus cases in us history#overturned another case. original case was overturned 17 times. totally legal. happened in the 60s. along with that ppl saying that cases#being overturned is always bad and thats why it is/should be illegal. again. do you not know one of the most important scotus cases in us#history? the cases i mentioned earlier were plessy v ferguson & brown v board. plessy v ferguson legalized segregation in schools. thats#where 'separate but equal' came from. set the precedent for segregation in other public places. reaffirmed 17 times. brown v board overturn#ed it banning segregation in public schools. & you want to tell me overturning a decision is always bad?#just. if this was a not so important case from 1821 that no one really knew about whatever then. but brown v board is 1 of the most well#known cases in us history. how are there people that dont know the history behind it?#'overturning should be illegal' okay guess we're going back to segregation then#& thats just one example. i'm sure there have been lots of other cases overturning stuff that arent as well known as brown v board that#have been good but it's too late/early for me to look into that for now
