Please boost for help.

@dukepaaron @aelliotpr All of this kind of reminds me of the argument about how the swastika didn't start out as a nazi symbol and so we shouldn't automatically assume everyone using it is a nazi. (I first learned about this argument from an ex-boyfriend which is part of the reason he's very firmly an ex, but that's a collection of stories for another day in which I have copious amounts of alcohol and weed). Anyway, if you're using a swastika I'm assuming you're a nazi. Also, if you and your friends are yelling "from the river to the sea" I'm assessing the risk of you and your friends being genicidal fucks as too high for me to dig up some sort of benefit of the doubt on your behalf. See also: If you either regularly make jokes about raping women, or you regularly defend others who do the same as not really misogynist assholes and I just need to calm down, I'm assuming you're a misogynist asshole.

@tristansnell If it wasn't for double standards the GOP would have no standards.

Anti-abortion laws are intended to be cruel & unusual punishment of the innocent.

Roe vs Wade's overturn is a disenfranchisement scheme.

4.6 million former felons can't vote in America.

Women found guilty of abortion or contraception will swell those ranks enormously.

Trauma works similarly.

Deliberate psychological torment, like Jim Crow, is also voter suppression.

Torturing women over miscarriages, rape, or unviable pregnancies is intended to suppress the vote.

Important read from #JenniferRubin on the #Texas #abortion case. Gifted copy.

The Texas abortion case blows up the abortion ban rationale

Trump said he would testify in NY AG trial -- and suddenly he backed out.

He blinked.

When the chips are down, he ALWAYS blinks.

Anti-abortion attorneys ascend federal government ranks with Christian right legal training https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/nationworld/report/121123_anti_abortion_attorneys/anti-abortion-attorneys-ascend-federal-government-ranks-with-christian-right-legal-training/
The Alliance Defending Freedom has employed and trained thousands of conservative Christian attorneys, some of whom have climbed the highest rungs of power, and the legal group is working on nearly a dozen ongoing lawsuits involving abortion and contraceptive access.
