    The overturn of roe v wade is affecting millions of women alone. But thanks for showing you don’t give a shit about us.

      Global warming and proxy wars around the world will kill millions of people, so it’s less that I “don’t give a shit about you” and more “I see larger dangers on the horizon”

      The democrats had FIFTY YEARS to codify roe v Wade but cynically fundraised off it instead.

        There is literally no way to do that without a constitutional amendment, and we haven’t been able to get the constitution amended in, what?, over fifty years? And as court cases in states that have passed constitutional amendments has shown, even a constitutional amendment is not sufficient to prevent litigation to unwind the intent of the law. Literally any law that congress could possibly pass to make Roe v. Wade the law* could be overturned by SCOTUS, and Republicans have been working strategically for decades now to build courts that are favorable to overturning laws that they don’t like.

        And, BTW, Roe v. Wade was not the law of the land; Planned Parenthood v. Casey, 505 U.S. 833 (1992) was the standard that allowed states to really harshly regulate abortions, particularly when you had courts that were only looking at very narrow issues directly in front of them, rather than intents and realistic outcomes. If PP v. Casey had never happened 30 years ago, then we never would have seen SCOTUS tossing the whole issue back to the states (temporarily, anyways, because I expect the current congress to attempt a nationwide ban).

        Democrats really did fuck up by not codifying Roe, but Republicans are the ones who want to sentence you to death for getting an abortion. They are absolutely not the same lmfao

        Ah yes. Another individual blaming the side that DIDN’T take rights away. Very good. Very good. I’m glad your focus is directed appropriately.

        And before you bleat to me about hating women I fucking am a woman and the democrats fucked us over so they could fucking fundraise off it fuck them!!!

        I’m going to drop a truth bomb on you. For the foreseeable future you’re getting Democrats or Republicans. And you’re over here complaining about the side NOT actively assaulting your rights. Bravo.
