A mutual on another platform is quite distressed that I would say he is willing to sacrifice women’s lives in order to have abortion bans hold. What else would you call women dying from lack of medical care because doctors aren’t sure how abortion laws apply regarding miscarriages and failed pregnancies?
I continue to be slobberknocked by how closely the two sides’ messaging mirror each other while the background info is at opposite ends of the pole. Today, one of the most avid Trump supporters I know posted: “We are going to choose hope over fear.” I look at that and I can’t get it to work in my brain. Hope over fear??? How does that even track? The only explanation I can come up with is our brains are wired in completely different ways. #contentwarning#USPoli
@Tharpa@bmacDonald94 I live in America and that’s the way I feel about it. In 2020 a barn located less than 3 miles from my home with Biden Harris painted on it was burned to the ground. The arsonists were found and admitted doing it because of the sign.
🤣🤣🤣 Some of these pundits think people are incapable of rational thought. The Lincoln Radio Journal, Pennsylvania: a 20% surcharge on utilities to fund greener production keeps a woman from paying for her cancer treatments. Let’s play along. My energy bill is $400 a month. 20% surcharge takes it to $480. Additional cost $960 a year. Average cost of cancer treatment $150,000. Maybe the problem is lack of universal healthcare? #usapolitics#nonsense#environment
@GottaLaff It would be a joyous day if a few Republicans decided to help elect Hakeem Jeffries. Maybe a few who have announced they are leaving rather than stay and fight for their party will do it.
@freakazoid@Digital_Eclipse Your rendition leaves out that the American Revolutionists had no other recourse: no vote, no representation, no audience. The Jan 6 participants had all of the above and chose violence over democratic activism. They were not disenfranchised. They represented the current power structure. They simply didn’t like that they were overruled, in the majority, by their peers. Thus, they were and are both terrorists and insurrectionists.
I work hard to avoid beng a Monday Morning Quarterback. Many, many people are at the core of decisions using information I do not have. Information I DO have: 1. It is never acceptable to kill people who are not a direct life-threatening physical threat to you; 2. It is never acceptable to bully others; 3. It is perfectly acceptable to disarm and silence those who violate #1 and #2.
I believe in bodily autonomy, equity, and laws that advance and protect both. Mostly retired. Mostly living the dream. Beware. Known to swear. #gardening #photography #reading #science #LGBTQIA #BLM #politics #MentalHealth #autism #GreenEnergy #dogs #NoAltNoBoost #equity #architecture
