Missouri Executive Order 44 (eat your heart out, George) was signed by Lilburn Boggs on October 23, 1838, and ordered that Mormons in the state be “exterminated” or exiled. This destroyed Boggs’ political career, but the order wasn’t formally rescinded until 1976 as a goodwill gesture by Governor Kit Bond. Zombie laws and orders are a hell of a drug that I imagine keep lawyers up at night.
Sure. You cool with adding ‘and leftists’ to the end of every mention of Mormons?
Because I’m not cool with that.
Edit: To clarify. When a law or order is given to purge or prosecute a specific group of individuals, it helps to explain why it’s bad by pointing out that if you added your own social group to every mention of the same, it would be just as appalling to you. Due process is a right for a reason.
Deleting whole groups of people is a war crime.
Move on, the comment was removed for a reason. It was not my best moment and I regret it but the fact that you want to comment on it over a day after it’s deleted is weird.
It’s still visible from my instance.
Your instance is not respecting mods, go look at the modlog.
