Sigh, y'all are fucking exhausting lmao. Can't believe I have to spend part of my Sunday explaining why rolling back Civil Rights legislation is bad.
See my posts above from 2019. Electoralism isn't perfect but it makes sense within a harm-reduction framework. You're doing an awful lot of typing to convince yourself that voting doesn't matter at all when even full-on anarcho-syndicalists like Noam Chomsky acknowledge that voting Dem is crucial in swing states etc where there is any chance of Republican winning. Your thesis relies on this notion that things can't get worst or regress further, this week's ruling to overturn a landmark Civil Rights legislation should've disabused you of that notion. That is, if you weren't already convinced by the earlier attacks on Voting Rights and protection of dark money etc. Hell, these Republicans have outright said the quiet part I've been talking about for years OUT LOUD and told you Brown v Board of Ed etc are next and y'all are still sitting in your rocking chairs drinking your warm milk like some fucking geriatrics with no skin in the game. Sure activism, organizing in your workplace (shout out to Christian Small) and working to elect progressives and/or a viable third party alternative are even more important but goddamn... wake tf up.
"cRy harDeR LiBurl!"
Lmao, what a fucking clown show commentary. If you're really involved in the health care system at all in any capacity I truly feel bad for the patients under your care. Here's the thing... you're either too dumb to understand the implications of this decision or you're just being dishonest. Full stop. There's no way you can glibly say that folks are overreacting since 'folks can still get abortions if they really need it' without acknowledging that this punitive/invasive approach to abortion (a medical procedure) is going to be administered along class lines. Economically mobile folks and Republican Senators who want an abortion will still be able to do so easily across State lines (including paying for lawyers to fight cases against the hick States
who will try to prosecute those residents who seek the procedure out of State) while the poor and marginal will be back to using coat hangers with medically dubious results for some unlucky women (read: deaths that could've been prevented). Why tf celebrate this shit? It's so fucking mind-numbingly dumb.
All your patronizing, retarded and mean-spirited commentary misses that abortions will continue to be a fact of life and that stripping women of their bodily autonomy and ability to make decisions regarding their own health is a HUGE backward step... the rationale for which can and will be used to test other hard won Civil Rights legislation by this psychopathic court.
Lmao, this is hilarious and true
