Thankfully is passed but still... these fascists aren't hiding it anymore for what they really are...

They don't want abortion, they don't want same sex marriage, they don't want contraceptives.

They want control.

Can we n*ke america yet and just wipe the country clean of the shitshow that it is & start over? Obviously move all the good people out of the country before doing so, but we can leave behind the ones against abortion, birth control, the ones who shoot up schools and other public areas, the ones who rape and sexually assault, the pedophiles and beastiality freaks, the murderers (ACTUAL murderers, NOT women who’ve miscarried or aborted a fetus).


Probably gonna get a lot of hate for saying so but I’m all for it at this point, the politics over there are turning into a joke, and not a good one at that, and the rest of the world could do without the immense stupidity.

Wall off the west coast states and the northeast and i agree lol

"they're not forcing you to have kids, just use protection"

God people are so fucking ignorant, blind, incapable of seeing past their brainwashed fucking thoughts.

[Smashingdoozy]

Oh and 157 republicans voted against gay marriage too. Many of whom say marriage is sacred between a man and woman... Yet they've been married multiple time and had multiple affairs.

Shhh you're saying what they don't want you to say 😂

[Smashingdoozy]

One even exposed himself to a bunch of children. Another sex trafficked a 17 year old girl.

🙂

[Still-alive]

not at all surprised there lol.

[RolandCuthbert]

Well, it goes hand in hand. If you allow states to block access to abortion, you have to cut off access to contraceptives. You are trying to force childbirth on women. It is so hilariously nonsensical when you look at the overall strategy.

But I guess if your plan is to keep a certain segment of females poor and uneducated, they could be the "handmaids" in this story.

But it still doesn't make any sense. The Afghanistan Taliban are better at this. This American version still needs to figure out some stuff.

I would use the military to wipe out these religious nuts from society. If I was the government, conservatives should be scared to live here

[Still-alive]

i mean you may get the chance to hurt them in the future as almost half our population believes another civil war will happen someday.

[NorthwestRider]

I think religious conservativm should be banned worldwide

[MzAsh]

This extremism is about nothing other than controlling women. They’ll tell you they voted no because “there’s no need” to motion to protect birth control, yet Clarence Thomas ADMITTED he wants the access to birth control to be reconsidered. They WILL NOT get away with this.

[purplepoppy]

So you can buy a gun capable of wiping out a crowd but you can't buy contraception?

[goaded]

[BrickBiggems]

Uh huh there. I'm a republican, and this might surprise you but despite my cloven hooves, pitch fork and Hitler stash I don't hate all of the above. I don't give a crap about gay people. I don't think all abortions should be banned.

[Cherry234]

I hate them. There's no way they can get away this. People are going to fight back.

[Still-alive]

I like this because it exposes the republicans for what they really are. voters should be paying real close attention to this and vote against them this November.

[Cherry234]

Yes. They're evil people.

[goaded]

"should be" :(

[Cherry234]

@goaded I know what you mean. Are they really going to vote against Republicans though?

[Still-alive]

im hearing a lot of buzz. things are turning around thanks to the soctus overturning of roe the Senate race at least is now a toss up where as before it was pretty clear republicans were gonna sweep up. Republicans are really hurting themselves with all this stuff... because guess what? it just so happens that gay marriage, abortion rights, and contraceptives are overwhelmingly popular in our country and they people taking them away... well we will see what happens to them in November.

[Cherry234]

Lol I got downvoted. I wonder if it's one of those Trumpsters lmao.

[llorando]

It's sad we've gotten to the point we need a freaking law so people can buy condoms. This is what happens when you screw over the most popular candidate only to lose to the most unpopular candidate you propped up for a easy win. 99% chance Sanders would have beaten Trump to go on and pick a progressive supreme court justice instead of the shitty one Trump picked.

[SmokinAces2000]

So they don’t want abortion or birth control, I really wonder what’s going through their minds

[MzAsh]

Apparently they want people to be miserable and poor having a bunch of unwanted babies they have to take care of.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

They’re right only about the first one and last one

[Slim57]

This is why I stopped being one, both sides are just too far gone and crazy honestly

[OddBeMe]

Sounds like men trying to control female sex.

[Still-alive]

pretty much. it was never about being pro life at all. it was all about shaming women for having ANY sex outside of wedlock and subsequently controlling what they are allowed to do with their bodies.

[OddBeMe]

Yep. Viagra is insured… conception isn't? Idiots.

[menina]

Unfortunately that doesn't surprise me.

[Guardian45]

That's one way of causing a population boom.
