Ohio Woman Charged After Miscarrying Non-Viable Fetus
Ohio Woman Charged After Miscarrying Non-Viable Fetus
The Black woman's ordeal highlights the perils and uncertainties of being pregnant in a post-Roe America.
I am so fucking tired of living in this shithole country.
Fingers crossed this stuff keeps people galvanized to vote cons the fuck out of each branch of government in 2024. My hope is that trump's term and the Dobbs decision will push the gop to implode. They can't back away from pandering to far right christians, the older generations are dying off, and hopefully moderate-leaning conservatives will choose to not vote, since I doubt they'll let themselves vote for democrats.
Though this'd also likely lead to far right extremists ramping up their violence as they feel themselves losing power
Fingers crossed this stuff galvanizes people to realize that voting is, at best, a temporary stopgap and they will need to be a bit more active in the whole political process. What happened to the riots that were promised if Roe vs. Wade was overturned? When the Democrats fall in lockstep with the far right extremists how will you hold them accountable?
Though this'd also likely lead to far right extremists ramping up their violence as they feel themselves losing power.
That is what overturning Roe vs. Wade is about. The parent article is a story of far right extremists ramping up their violence as American empire loses power. Is your plan to vote that away? It hasn't worked for the last 40+ years.
This is the kind of headline that warrants just going to fucking town naming and shaming absolutely everyone involved in the prosecution.
Everything about this is awful, from the criminalizing of a natural body function to the racism to a 33-year-old woman being called a "girl".
to the racism to a 33-year-old woman being called a "girl"
But you repeat yourself
I think the original commenter's point is that calling grown women "girls" is a commonly used tactic to infantilize women and make the situation seem not as serious as it's supposed to be.
Take for example the headline that we're talking about here: "girl" vs "woman" is the difference in thinking that this is some 16 year old who made dumb decisions and someone who probably understands the consequences of what they're doing and takes proper precautions to prevent it.
This is not to say that I personally believe that one abortion is more justified than the other (because I don't), but just want to point out the semantic difference here.
The conservatives need the babies alive so they can be sent overseas to be killed. It's the new american way.
Disgusting pigs. All of em.
They need wage slaves even more so.
This really is the trajectory for most unwanted children.
No heritable resources, a fuck ton of trauma, and unaffordable healthcare leads to lifelong difficulties finding and retaining work with no hope of mental health care to fix the central issue.
What good is being a neo-feudal lord without peasants to lord over?
Nah, they want to reduce the number of poor and non-white people because they hate them. They have no need to send them overseas to be killed on profitable wars. They have drones for that now.
I feel that reducing access to abortion actually creates more poor people no? As in, not being able to financially support a child is a common reason for not wanting to complete a pregnancy.
