      If you weren’t charged, but make a legally binding admission of guilt, have you committed a felony?

      I feel like this is like, something they teach in some extra credit course at law school lmao

        It says “charged,” not “committed.” Every president has probably committed felonies.

          I don’t know, I’m not sure William Henry Harrison had time to commit any felonies while president.

          I can’t even fathom how many Andrew Jackson must have ranked up.

            Not sure I’m concerned with Noam “Genocide isn’t a big deal when Socialists do it” Chomsky’s take.

              I see this posted a lot, but the only thing I’ve ever seen sourced of Noam saying anything like this is more “be wary of when the United States reports things that align in its imperial interests” rather than the oft-repeated “genocide good”

                Chomsky is famous for Holodomor apologia

                  Idk maybe but when I asked for a source what I saw was much more “beware America” instead of “Stalin did nothing wrong”

                    “Beware America for making the Soviet union starve out ethnic Ukrainians they saw as undesirables, which isn’t genocide because I don’t like America”

                    • Noam Chomsky, probably.
