Politico: Supreme Court has voted to overturn abortion rights, draft opinion shows
- Thread starter Smokeymicpot
- Start date
Exactly. They say they will fight and fold the second a republican pushes back. Cowards.
Well, then, speaking candidly...I would just urge you to consider time and place.
As someone who does a lot of activist work and GOTV work, I will say in my experience this has been an extreme failure of the far left? Simple and basic tact?
Not every moment is an opportune one to shit on Democrats.
And they're all two million years old. Maybe saying that is ageist but its a huge problem, no one should be able to serve that long.
Might aswell let Civil War survivors decide the fate of womens rights in 2022. They want a world that no longer and shouldn't exist.

When people post that kind of thing, I always wonder what their number is.
How much of their loan do they need forgiven until they are willing to vote for protecting women's bodily autonomy? Maybe if we throw in an extra ten thousand, they'll lift a finger in defense of trans rights as well? That's the implication, isn't it?
This.
This is why they like America to continue to be a police state. If they don't want to wait it out doing nothing, they can send in some people to crack heads to get them to stop.
We didn't fail, though. The system was rigged.
What a silly thing to say lol. 'The game is rigged, so obviously until it becomes unrigged, the people playing the rigged game are to blame. Not the game that is rigged. It'll be cool when it's changed.' Like I said, you're basically just double-speaking. You want to attack someone, but want to also acknowledge they also don't have the power to be worthy of attack. You can't have it both ways.
Civil rights bout to be on the chopping block next. If you think that's hyperbole you've been asleep the past 200 years
Every Republican is a piece of shit, we've gone back 50 steps for no reason but their ego.
Fucking pathetic. Just pathetic. The government hasn't worked for us for 40 years, since Reagan and we just let it happen. This past decade has made everyone more poor and sick and nobody is doing anything to kick everyone out and start over.
So tired of this bullshit. Fuck Biden too, every Democrat is a coward.

They are actually referencing it as though they are defending it lol
Our system is broken to just about beyond repair. We're now experiencing the fallout from a country whose outdated election laws have led to a government that doesn't represent a majority of its citizens.
Supreme Court trying to make women and LGBTQ rights mirror many of the worse countries in red states. America is going to be pretty strange when people CA, OR, NY, WA etc have wildly different rights than the people in TX, FL, etc.
Violent revolution. Which should be the response happening right now.
Mm. They've voted against their self-interest before. Not relying on their instincts
I know it's been said before, but the 2016 election will fuck us over for like two generations. And here in 2022, people will still find reasons to not vote as if voting for the lesser evil is somehow a better outcome than letting true evil win.
At the moment? Nothing. Joe Manchin is from one of the reddest states in the country so if he does get primaried he will probably be replaced with someone as bad if not worse than him. All we can do is keep voting and gaining more seats in the senate.
No I think it is. This could've been prevented. Hell it still can be! But nothing will be done.
Worst case, like, I'm posting in anger on a video game message board. No one is being radicalized by me calling D politicians useless. It's fine.
I don't think it's a good look to talk about fundraising at this moment. But I'm not really mad at them for it.
If people want to give money to something, give it to abortion funds in states where abortion will become/is illegal.
This is so fucked up on every level, but since I was already expecting the court to strike down Roe and Casey (though I'm a little surprised how much Alito explicitly writes Roe and Casey must die) I'm a little more shocked by the fact that this leaked almost two months early. That's such a major breach of how the court functions. Not that they don't deserve it.
Everyone who would be both willing and able to go for that is dead, in jail, or sold out long ago for some sweet college tenure/book deals.
What we have left are the unwilling if able or the willing but totally not experienced or serious. It's a nice thought but isn't going to really go down
Yo wtf this is stupid as shit… hopefully the new districts in MI give us the chance to overturn this law but that's not looking good…
But that will just politicize the sacred integrity of the court!
/s
I, for one, am not going to expend all my anger at this decision* posting about it on the internet and yelling at fellow blue voters. I plan on attending any protests, marches, sit-ins, etc., I possibly can and fight this thing. It's the only other option besides acquiescing into defeatism.
How about you?
* Yes, """""not official yet""""", I know.

Id counter with "million woman march". Problem is, just like Floyd is that really political capital on the line or just a "We did it for the "gram" fake showing. I see it being huge for a week and thats it. But thats scary in itself: this was such a clear to cross to the point GOP justices had to dance around it when getting nominated so if people dont turn out even for this…
Alrighty!
Not the first time I got this response.
And I just carry on...
Republicans just made women cattle. Fucking livestock with no control over their bodies. These fucking GHOULS.
And you know that whole filibuster thing dems are so worried about? Republicans will nuke that from orbit to ban abortion across the untied states if they get control of congress in 2022. With no hesitation.
Pay attention to who you are playing against and what game your opponents are playing, dems. Stop fucking around. And all these "never trump republicans are about to show their true colors on this issue. They're still republicans. Pay attention to that shit.

My belief that 2016 was the most the important election of this century becomes further cemented by the day.
I ain't worried about people venting. I want people to put work in.
Some of us do live where voting Blue won't matter and evil HAS won. But I still vote in hopes that may it will one day.
America is going to regress incredibly fast from this point on. Or I should say, it's going to revert back to its original idea of self - a nation built solely for the discretion of a straight, white, baptist businessman. If you don't fall into these categories, you're not "American".
