Legal ≠ moral. Both instances of mobilizing the national guard against the wishes of the states' governors were illegal, but one was moral and the other is not. One could argue that by breaking the law the first time a precedent was set that allowed it to be done again for a less noble cause, but I disagree. The fact that it was possible for Eisenhower to federalize the national guard without the state governor's approval in the first place means that nothing would stop it from happening in the future regardless of whether or not a precedent was set.

The drug that has the most negative impact on empathy is money, and that is his primary addiction.
I was raised in a deeply conservative fanatically religious culture and I put out a sarcastic and "too cool for school" energy a lot of the time. What do you think counterculture is? I remember in the movie she's got a whole social circle of people who are on the same page as her.
Personally I think Zendaya plays Chani pretty well, and her character doesn't feel out of place to me.
As someone who left the Southern Baptist cult as soon as my brain developed, this is nothing new.
You might try stepping away from your keyboard and checking for yourself.
Isn't Chani a non-believer in the movie, at least at first?
VPN companies and data brokers have a financial incentive to lobby for intrusive age-verification and restrictions, and prudish politicians are conveniently present in every political system. The porn lobby is powerful, but it seems they've been losing this battle recently. Or maybe they're cutting deals with the data brokers, who knows.
