It seems obvious to me now.

Many US states are now requiring age verification for adult sites. VPN companies will benefit if that requirement expands. The Republican party's pearl-clutching politics are what can make that happen.

The Swastika in the center of the nose cone was meant as a good luck symbol. (This was well before the Nazi party adopted the Swastika as its official emblem).

(Also the wrong orientation to be the Nazi symbol.)

Edit: I admit I may have missed the point of your post. It just occurred to me I don't even know about the OP's cartoon, which I now realize is probably referring to Lucky Lindy himself. Gonna go get my learn on.

Anyone with a cable subscription has enough to toss a couple of bucks a month to wikipedia.

The thing is it's not a "hey, need an abortion? just do this." Look at what it's saying: if you drink the bitter water and God judges you guilty, it will cause an abortion, and that's how we'll know whether you're guilty or not.

Religious POV: No human has any choice in the matter. Drink the water, God decides. Zero choice.

Non-religious POV: I see a few possible explanations.

One is the person administering the "bitter water" might actually have some concoction that worked, but if it did work, that would signal to the community that the would-be mother was guilty under their harsh law. Not good for her, not really a choice.

Another possibility is that it's a ritual designed to let people move past perceived adultery. Drinking the magic water shows your faith and innocence because you would have believed you were poisoning your baby if you knew you were guilty. In reality, maybe not, but that's what the ritual presents on the surface. You drink the magic water, everyone feels better that God either didn't judge you guilty or forgave you, everyone goes on with life. Everyone's happy except if the mother was so desperate she would rather have been punished by the law than have that baby. Still no real choice.

I'd say "technically" because there's no such thing as magical water and because this is only a ceremony to give an appearance of leaving it up to divinity, not a way for people to actually have an abortion. This doesn't look to me like it helps pro-choice arguments at all since anyone arguing the other side is going to be able to say, "See, it's in God's hands."

Now I want someone to deepfake their faces onto the "girl explaining to guy" meme.

What are we when we get too old to drink coffee anymore?

Plz don't shid on floor

And I can only imagine how they feel when empty.

No bodies were policed in the making of this meme.

Always has been.
