I made my point. You want to deflect from it because you were wrong.
Tough shite.

You don't see an issue with "subject to the jurisdiction"?
There is a thread currently on page 1 about this.
I'll just summarize: Wong Kim Ark already defined this with a textual and historical analysis that I don't see how any textualist would change without venturing into hypocrisy for political desires.

Already has been.

Not often you get embarrassed so thoroughly, is it?

Roger mentioned "security". That's when I entered the chat. It's a valid question to ask what the Constitution has to say about "security" in the context. The context here is "security".
Do you have any idea what the Constitution says about "security"?
It's not a deflection when it's the very reason I entered the discussion.

As a registered Libertarian I will defend it on the point that political advertisers and pollsters are a lot more likely to leave you alone during election season. I get very few mailers and other political spam in my mailbox or on my voice messaging which is just the way I like it.

The point I'm seeing discussed outside of Wong (no offense), is that while Wong put himself under the jurisdiction of the US, immigrants knowingly coming here illegally are not doing that. There's not good faith effort to act as citizens when your very presence is unlawful.
But let me try to catch up with that discussion in the other thread.

Individual rights as seen by the federal government didn’t exist until the 14th amendment
So this alleged appeal to individualism by the founders in the US constitution is shaky ground. People should be more honest about it and not drag the founders into this discussion, and just abide by the interpretations as they are now agreed on to make their point.

I understand the distinction you're trying to make, but it ignores that "subject to the jurisdiction" was already "hashed out" and this distinction is irrelevant within that analytical framework.
This attempt (not by you, but the people creating content on the issue you're consuming) to be clever and pretend that they can distinguish away WKA, and that this would be a novel ruling instead of overruling a longstanding Supreme Court precedent, shows they either didn't read WKA or are being intentionally obtuse to cater to their audience.

That's not entirely accurate.
The 14A expanded the concept of some rights but primarily created the path towards incorporation by the states of the rights in the Constitution.
So we had individual rights, but only for federal purposes, for the most part.

Good government will assist with foreign policy, energy, and the economy....
Good government will stay out of personal issues.....
Good government presses to stay small

Fair enough, I was being overly broad with that statement. I still contend it muddies the waters for the absolutism of the “individual rights” arguments some are making here from the constitution and tying it to the founders intent.

There’s a high correlation between libertarian beliefs and anime fandom
Why is that?

Anime is the hyper idealized version of animated media
Libertarianism is the hyper idealized version of classical liberal individualism that ignores human nature and imperfect systems

Definitions per the polsci institute
Based on these definitions, does your political ideology align with either or pieces of both?

It's just in/out group attacks to ostracize people who didn't shed libertarianism (that used to be the dominant philosophy on here) for MAGA populist authoritarianism, because THAT is what the cool kids are doing now.
