  • These two women would have been able to access abortion services much earlier in the pregnancy, if they were in Europe instead of Oklahoma. This case is the kind of thing that restricting access to legal abortion early in pregnancies causes. This is the fault of the Oklahoma abortion bans

  • Oh I thought it was just a couple random people getting squicky about trans ladies using the ladies room? So you admit that it's an organized effort. I don't think I've ever seen someone move their goalposts in the wrong direction before lmao

    Outlawing gender affirming medical care has zero impact on sports, you willful liar. No, the truth is that the people behind this movement are targeting trans people because they're the most convenient vulnerable group to rally hateful bigots around right now. Gay people are acceptable, the dog caught the car on the abortion "debate," and they need a new boogeyman to leverage to whip votes

  • There only being that one playbook is the exact reason why I have a patch on my backpack that reads: "Evil is boring"

  • Oh fuck you, stop lying. The vast majority of Americans agree on reasonable abortion restrictions.

    "When asked about the legality of abortion at different stages of pregnancy, about two-thirds of Americans say it should be legal in the first trimester (69%), while support drops to 37% for the second trimester and 22% for the third. Majorities oppose abortion being legal in the second (55%) and third (70%) trimesters."

  • Having your literal survival threatened has a way of focusing the attention. We're already reaching the point where people can't afford the bread and circuses.

  • Also the tactics used by bigots to oppress both classes separately are the same. So the resistance to that oppression is better off working together

  • He followed Glenn Greenwald down the "I feel like people don't respect my leftism enough, so I'm gonna join the alt-right" path

  • Well, I guess at least you're just a bigot and not also a hypocrite.

  • "Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in Egypt.
    —Exodus 23:9 (NIV)"

    I hope you don't call yourself a Christian.

  • We have to pay for the services we use somehow. I'd rather it be cash than the details of my entire life. But the money to operate those services has to come from somewhere

  • The secret ingredient is ✨🌈 misogyny ✨🌈

  • Stop lying. The massive, coordinated effort to outlaw gender affirming medical care is so much more than "a couple people feel squicky about trans ladies using the ladies room."

    Omfg, please leave right now

  • If by "quitting" you mean we all die, I think you just might be right.

  • As I literally sit here in the cafeteria on my day off rallying for our upcoming union vote 💪

  • Oof, yeah. It'll be time to break out my N95s again

    In Tuesday's special election, Ohioans overwhelmingly voted against requiring a supermajority to amend their state constitution

    Voters in Ohio went to the polls to decide whether to approve a measure known as Issue 1​ that would raise the bar for constitutional amendments on the ballot. In the ultimate irony, the vote against changing the amendment process exceeded the 60% supermajority that the special election was seeking to require in the first place.
