Conservatives are a plague of oppression and death. They always have been. There is a cure. It is long overdue.

I will try to hold back too many profanities, but it’s seriously FUCKED UP that anyone but this woman and her doctor know that she’s pregnant, with a doomed fetus, and needs an abortion, and it’s FUCKED UP that anyone gets to overrule her decision, and it’s FUCKED UP that she has to flee the state during an obviously traumatic time, and it’s FUCKED UP that the FUCKERS will vilify her now, hell maybe even prosecute her, and it’s FUCKED UP that making a difficult time much more difficult is “good politics” in the state of Texas, which, by the way, is an utterly FUCKED UP place.

yenahmik ,

Agreed.

I should not know her name. I should not know her intimate personal details.

She should have been able to mourn her loss in private with her loved ones. Not on the national stage as an example. She should not be at risk of prosecution because of this unfortunate situation.

SlikPikker ,

“Risk” is hopeful.

LillyPip ,

I should not know her name. I should not know her intimate personal details.

Good news! You don’t know the names of the thousands upon thousands of other women and girls in similar positions who don’t have the resources or skin pigmentation to be able to bring a case against the state or make headlines like this.

Oh wait, that’s maybe not such good news…

Buffalox ,

These extreme right wing fanatic religious nuts, are the ones that make me doubt humanity will make it past a few generations more.

LillyPip ,

It will if we don’t let them get away with this.

Protests do work. There are more of us than them, and we don’t have to passively let them do this to us.

Buffalox ,

This anti abortion thing is a symptom of a larger problem IMO.
Trump actually has a chance of winning! Think about it! The narcissist psycho Donald Trump, a proven criminal and traitor, actually has a chance of winning the next presidential election!
Russia has gone completely fascist and anti humanitarian, invading a peaceful democracy for seeking closer ties to EU and NATO.
Slovakia recently elected a Russia friendly government.
Netherlands elected a fascist government. Who helps Putin, and wants Netherlands out of EU and NATO.
Italia elected a fascist leader last election.
Hungary and Bulgaria are actively undermining EU and try to block aid to Ukraine, and want “better” relations with Russia.
Argentina together with much of south America is turning extreme right again. Almost as iof they want their old military dictators back.
China under Xi is trying to dominate Asia including militarily in the China sea now, their rhetoric regarding Taiwan is becoming ever more aggressive. and Xi has gained powers in China comparable to what Putin has done in Russia.

The optimism after the Berlin wall fell, has turned into a nightmare, where instead of freedom spreading east, fascism is now spreading west.
At least Poland took a minor step back towards normalcy, and prevented the “Law and Justice” party from forming government again.

Of course this could begin to turn around, especially if Putin and Xi loses power somehow. That could end a huge catalyst towards fascism in the world.

What is worse is that, as she at least has means/options (to hire a lawyer, to leave the state, etc), many woman do not.

Can I repeat that it’s FUCKED UP!

HonkTonkWoman ,

It’s also pretty FUCKED UP that she was cleared for the procedure by one judge, giving her a glimmer of relief, only to have that snatched back by the Texas Supreme Court like 2 days later.

This whole situation & every lawmaker involved is proper fucked.

Sagifurius ,

I’m curious how her doctor didn’t just go for it in the window

HonkTonkWoman ,

The window was short & I think over a weekend, but I may be mistaken about that.

GBU_28 ,

I mean good vent but you can do swears here

HerrBeter ,

… Duckers…

Immersive_Matthew ,

This reply not only utilized the word fuck effectively, but also really had no other choice as it is, just so utterly Fucked up. No wonder there is a brain drain going on right now in Texas. I would want to leave too.

jadedwench ,

Been saying this for days. Her whole life, her children, friends, family; exposed to these crazies. Every bit of spite will be directed at them. It may not even be safe for them to live there. Her husband. His job? All fucked. Who knows how long it will take for this shit to blow over and still be left with the tragedy of needing healthcare, losing a wanted child, and being punished for it.

All Texas women should leave the state regardless of whether or not they need an abortion

netburnr ,
@netburnr@lemmy.world avatar

That let’s them win, they keep getting to fuck texas up more.

Maybe this will cause some women to get out and vote against all these assholes that keep winning due to low turnout.

alquicksilver ,
@alquicksilver@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, but if it’s just men and no bang maids around, they’ll eventually run themselves into the ground.

HonkTonkWoman ,

Why do you think they keep all them long horns around? Moo moo buckaroo 🐮 💋

Artyom ,

If we could just find some alternative that’ll keep all the Texans where they are, that’d be great instead.

Sincerely,

A neighbor

AquaTofana ,

Nah, I don’t wanna stay in this hellscape that I didn’t vote for.

PrincessLeiasCat ,

Same.

Rapidcreek OP ,

I guess if my life hung in the balance and at the whim of people like Ken Paxton, I’d leave too. Too bad that Texans and doctors didn’t show up for her.

bobs_monkey ,

The problem I can imagine is that anyone that shows support for her will also be vilified by the state and face harassment and/or legal repercussions, which is exactly the outcome these asshats want for people who stand up to them. I’m sure she has plenty of support, but people have to be willing to face major consequences to stand with her, which is beyond fucked. Fascist assholes.

Rapidcreek OP ,

Used to know people when I was a kid that marched with MLK. The conditions you described applied to them. Yet, everytime a march was called they were on the bus. It was important to them. It’s not important enough for Texans.

bobs_monkey ,

I think it’s also easier to track and target people these days, given the proliferation of digital tools and whatnot. Find a person antagonistic of the state government, link them to their vehicle’s license plate, and sheriffs can have a field day.

Rapidcreek OP ,

It really doesn’t matter. At some point you have to stand up for what’s right or sit in the corner forever in fear.

Soulg ,

Yeah, like you did when you hopped right on a plane down to Texas to help her out by doing… what, exactly?

Rapidcreek OP ,

You have no idea of what I do or who I am.

CompostMaterial ,

Remember: “Don’t mess with Texas.” was an anti-littering campaign. They don’t actually have spines. They are cowards.
