Locking this thread because people are behaving like jerks.

"The child cannot live, it is a grave danger to your health and will never be able to survive more than an hour once you've destroyed your body carrying it to term and bringing it into this world"
"So... we need to abort the pregnancy?!
!What? Nooo, you are far to alive for that. We need to let you suffer for a while, so you are close to death enough. Then, we will be able to abort the pregnancy. No worries, you might die but it's not guaranteed and it will only leave you and your partner scarred for life since you didn't only loose your child, you suffered immensely as well"
"but... why do you make me go through this?"
"Because a bunch of bitter, balding white republican gnomes decided that this was 'a safe place for little babies'"

Hey now...I'm bitter and balding, and I marched my ass into my polling station in Ohio this morning to vote yes on issue 1. And I'll be voting this way when I'm as old, wrinkly, and bald as any of those fuckers.

Age doesn't make monsters. Monsters just get older.

The older and balder I get (since I can't get any whiter), the further left I shift.

Asshole right wing nuts have been working together for the past 40+ years to gain power, overturn Roe v Wade, and implement a Christofacist state. They're closer than ever.

And you just WON!!! I love you, thank you so so much. My sister suffered an incomplete miscarriage in Ohio a decade ago. A ban on abortion could have killed her. You just saved my sister's life. I just want you to know about the real people you're actually helping and please go out there and keep being awesome.

The lack of humanity in Republican politicians is so frustrating.

[–] deweydecibel 37 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Frustrating" doesn't feel like a strong enough word. Enraging, maybe. Lord knows we need more anger at them in this country than the quiet shrugging many people seem to have adopted.

Might need to catch up with John Oliver's segments after a long while.
