ClashAndBurn Posted June 29, 2022 Posted June 29, 2022 It really is astounding. And yet, when you think about it a little harder, it becomes clear that they wanted this to happen so they could fundraise off it, and then proceed to never do anything because the means they’ve limited themselves to redressing the problem require mathematically impossible solutions. Here’s a hard truth: there will never be 60+ Democrats in the Senate. And yet, because Biden and enough Democratic Senators don’t want to change the filibuster, that’s the only scenario in which federal abortion will come to be. Meanwhile, it’s highly likely the Republicans will have 60 Senate votes in 2025 that they can easily implement a federal abortion ban with.

They have rolled over on their backs like dogs after being reprimanded. These people need to get kicked out of ******* office.

Everything else was going to be lesser, with maybe Warren (her electability issues aside) being the only acceptable alternative before her “Bernie is a sexist” attempt at a Hail, Mary. We knew Biden would be impotent. We also knew Kamala would fail to meet the gravity of the moment. And yet this is whom they forced on us. The absolute worst actors they could have possibly chosen.

The way I see this ruling is just giving more power to the individual states, and it’s more democratic this way. Was it democratic when Conservatives wanted states rights to keep slavery Was it democratic when Conservatives wanted States rights to deny Civil Rights to Black people? Was it Democratic when Conservatives wanted States rights to ban gay marriage? States rights is a very tired talking point that's been used over 150 years to take ppl's rights away

States rights is a very tired talking point that's been used over 150 years to take ppl's rights away I'm so tired of that talking point. Yes you want state's rights...to ban the things you disagree with that you'd be unlikely to ban on a federal level. I know, instead of giving the power to the states, let's give the power to ban abortion to the counties. Or better yet, let's give that power to the cities. Or how about individual households? Or how about we just give those rights to individual people!

States rights is a very tired talking point that's been used over 150 years to take ppl's rights away You know what’s a tired talking point? Making a progressive/regressive false dichotomy where if you don’t support centralisation of power, you’re obviously pro-slavery. If your argument is that leaving power up to states leads to tyranny then why not have Washington, D.C. decide everything for every county and see how efficiently it works out for people who live thousands of miles away.

frenchyisback Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) The heart of an embryo starts to beat from around 5-6 weeks of pregnancy. So to me, anything over 6 weeks is fair game for the legislator to go after. Edited July 3, 2022 by frenchyisback
