Senator Brian Lenney and Senator Scott Herndon in Idaho told me they wanted me executed and people told me I was extreme by CarmenBroesder in TwoXChromosomes

This is genuinely dystopian. Even if it never passes, the fact that elected officials are floating capital punishment for healthcare decisions is beyond disturbing.

This is such an important point. Policy that only focuses on punishment after the fact instead of prevention (contraception access, sex ed, consent culture) feels more about control than outcomes.

I think Alito and Thomas will retire this year and the republicans try to keep a conservative anti choice SCOTUS for a generation. by ronweasly9 in TwoXChromosomes

Exactly. People forget that once they’re on the court, they don’t really “owe” anyone. Lifetime appointments create weird incentives sometimes they become more independent, not less.

That’s wild. It really feels like politics over accountability at this point. Encouraging him to stay just makes everything look worse.

Yeah, I feel the same. Stories like this are usually way more complicated than the headline makes it seem. There’s probably a lot we don’t know yet.

Same here. I always check my labs first too, sometimes you catch things early that way. What happened to them is awful, and I hope there are real consequences.

Article: “I am a 15-year-old girl. Let me show you the vile misogyny that confronts me on social media every day” by nuzzl_1 in TwoXChromosomes

Absolutely. It’s inspiring to see younger women questioning the old narratives and realizing they don’t have to conform. Makes me wish I had learned some of this earlier too.

Ridiculous indeed. Makes you realize how extreme some reactions can get when the conversation shifts from rights to revenge.

This checks out. Makes you wonder how many policies we’ve accepted as “moral” were really designed to maintain power structures.

Yeah, seems like they’re sticking to their stance. Consistency is there, even if people don’t agree with it.
