It's worth noting, for those who aren't aware, that you have to FUCKING PAY MONEY to give birth in hospital in the US. The country that already has the worst maternal death rate in the entire developed world is fixing to kill even more pregnant women.

And only those of us lucky enough to have good insurance and a hospital not looking to exploit pregnant women won't be crippled financially.

Our leaders want to perform genocide but it's more of a long game.

I was honestly taken aback when I first learned about that. I knew you didn't have a real public healthcare system but making women pay for maternity services... that's some next-level stuff there.

So Biden has categorically ruled out impeaching SC justices (which would fail anyway, they couldn't even convict you-know-who), and has categorically ruled out expanding the court.

So absent assassination (the only really viable option remaining, and that window is closing fast), I would say you are stuck with a far right supermajority on the SC until the the United States in its present form comes to an end. Quite a legacy for the Notorious RBG to leave behind. She had no regrets.

My wife and I had to spend about 15-20% of our savings on a routine birth. We're insured, middle class, state employees. If we'd wanted kids in our 20's we'd have been out half of our savings.

How is that supposed to work for people without savings? It's madness.

With birth rates in decline, you'd think these kooks would want to encourage more Jesus fetuses. Instead, their policies put most parents in a financial gulag upon giving birth.

There’s something so infuriating about people saying, with a self-satisfied sardonicism, “tell me about how going out and voting will fix everything?” Uh, yeah, a small minority went out and voted, funded, and created a support structure for candidates that shared their mission, and they did this for like fifty years until it bore fruit. Meanwhile, the Democrats voted for people not at all interested in codifying these things in law, preferring to push it out of the realm of politics and into legal adjudication and then use the threat of that being rolled back to fundraise. Amazingly cynical and yet…their voter base hasn’t given them all the heave ho. Instead they go on a protest march to signal their anger to…who exactly? The Republicans? SCOTUS?

I'd wager we could import Varg Vikernes to send a message, but he's so far right I don't think even his hate of christianity would be enough to compel him.

Somebody ought to tell the Democrats that boosting far-right candidates in Republican primaries in order to make their own candidate look better in the general is a dangerous game. The 2016 presidential election obviously wasn't lesson enough. Even if you win you're still stoking extremism, you dicks.
