The constitution says they serve "in good behavior", so that could be seen as a restriction on setting term limits. The only way to remove one is impeachment.

Who would challenge it?

My question is, who brings suit? You can't bring suit if you're not an injured party. The justices can't bring suit without recusing themselves. This is quite the conundrum.

It would take a constitutional amendment, something that isn't going to happen.

Justices can just rule it unconstitutional.

Doing nothing productive with your life, everything revolves around social drama, getting permission to take a shit...

I enjoyed my time at school. But you've got to ask yourself, if the best time of your life was at school that means you've made bad decisions, so what did it prepare you for really? School failed you.

The truth is that school fails all of us.

There hasn't been a non disappointing android release since KitKat.

That's not true either, almost every racist I run into on the internet talks mad shit about republicans for supporting Israel. Most of them wouldn't vote for either party. I saw multiple news articles about klansmen in 2016 supporting Hillary Clinton on the grounds that she was anti desegregation when she worked on the Goldwater campaign in the 60s.

I've met numerous liberals and leftists that were racist in private. Hell, Che Guevara was an outspoken racist. I don't think racism is partisan, there are just people like that out there.

The algorithms killed the platforms. They've become vapid, empty holes that only attract people addicted to them like junkies.

The internet can be fun, but you're not going to find it on the platforms. You're only going to find fun in places where people talk to each other. And even then, if you're thin skinned you're going to wind up in an outrage filled circlejerk. If you loosen up and go where the algorithms don't exist you can have a good time.

This is so wrong it's absurd, it gives you absolutely no information on the history of this conflict. The current conflict dates back to the early 20th century, well before world war 2.

It's called Pleroma.

No matter what you think of it, someone's going to try to guilt and browbeat you. Support the Palestinians? You're antisemitic and support terrorism. Support Israel? You're supporting an oppressive apartheid state. So who cares whether you're allowed, this is the world we live in, no matter what you think about anything there's someone out there who's going to call you a bad person for it. Just learn about things before you form an opinion, use your judgment and critical thinking and then figure out the truth of whatever it is.

Personally, I don't support either side. I can see how they both kind of brought each other's retaliation on themselves. I just lament innocent people dying and dislike how it affects me.
