Ignoring what I assume is some anti-trans bullshit, do you understand the difference between force and consent?
If I choose to eat a hotdog that’s nothing noteworthy, if someone forcefully shoves a hotdog down my throat it’s assault.
Do you know understand what a hysterectomy does to a body? It’s more than just lacking a uterus/no more baby making/no more periods. It’s a major surgery that can come with major complications, including sending a person into early menopause, which starts a loss of fucking bone density. Would you be so casual about someone doing that to you or someone you love without their prior knowledge or consent?
Sit down and think of your favorite woman, whoever she may be, then picture her tearfully telling you she was given a major surgery by the government, that she did not want, that took away her ability to have children and sent her into early menopause. Would you be okay with someone making a casual joke about that? Would that be funny to you? I hope not. I hope you’d be able to empathize with her heartbreak.
I get that they are trying to do the “war isn’t so far from home” thing but it is a delicate balance to strike…as Ukraine well knows, an attack near your home is more likely to strengthen your resolve against the country that just attacked you.
Democrats didn’t do everything right in terms of policy changes for Covid, and things like slow school re-opening had real negative impacts, but vaccine denial is just the biggest direct pipeline to higher deaths, it was really unconscionable and plenty of people were saying it real time.
In a less polarized time we would all agree on vaccines while allowing for state-by-state variance for when different types of businesses were allowed to start operating indoors again or whatever.

4+ years seems fair to me? You gotta keep in mind “attending a riot that couldve overthrown democracy” is not a specific crime. Like, it just isn’t. We’ve never had to charge people in this situation before.
Thus, he wasn’t charged with Jan 6 as a concept. He beat the shit out of a cop. I’d want a BLM rioter who beat the shit out of a cop to not do life, so why should this guy? I’ve hit cops - should I be imprisoned for life?
Frankly, I disagree that hitting a cop is especially more of a problem than hitting any other person. Laws like that are we we have cops doing the shit they do.
Also, no one should be in prison for any nonviolent drug offense full stop. Totally agreed there.
