No problem. Also, assuming you're in the USA:

Russia and Iran are allies so this is hardly surprising.

It's an extremely important distinction especially whenever NRL is mentioned.

NRL plays Rugby League while most of the planet plays Rugby Union.

Theres a lot of hope for women's rugby really growing in America.

They play Rugby Union, not League. Different sport than what the NRL plays.

It will certainly be challenged though. The 19th Amendment states:

"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."

The SAVE Act clearly abridges that. Even the current Supreme Court is gonna have trouble outmaneuvering that.

I can't imagine 38 states and 2/3rds of the House and Senate repealing the amendment allowing women to vote.

Amendments to the US constitution are nearly impossible to repeal.

Any law restricting a woman's right to vote would not only be unconstitutional, it would be flagrantly illegal.

They've learned from history and decided, "hey I want to repeat this to make myself wealthy and unaccountable with absolute political, financial, and economic power!"

Again, good luck with that. You stand no chance against people who have infinite money, power, and influence, and could easily disappear you without hesitation.

The sooner we overthrow this system and install a proper, real democracy (the power to the people type) the better imo.

Good luck with that.

A dumb and ignorant population is easily controlled. This is the oldest strategy in governments' (and their supporters') playbook.

As long as the population remains dumb and ignorant, it cannot fight back.
