and this is why education is important because the republican party under donald trump and the republican party under abraham lincoln are two very different things
Between Iraq changing the age of consent from 18 to 9, conservatives in the US tweeting "YOUR BODY, MY CHOICE", one of Gisele Pelicot's abusers justifying his behaviour by saying "I thought she was dead" and women in Sudan taking their own lives to avoid being r@ped by paramilitary fighters…. If you still can't grasp just how many men hate women, you're not listening.
Republicans in North Carolina just proposed a bill that says if a woman is caught with an IUD or attempts to get an abortion then men are allowed to use DEADLY FORCE to try and stop her. They are proposing a bill that will allow men to kill women for using birth control. It’s House Bill 1232. Keith Kidwell is the Republican who proposed the bill. He claims it counts as self defense to use deadly force to stop abortion. This is a man who claims to be pro life. Feel free to give his office a call and let him know how you feel about his opinion.
And for anyone who says “obviously this will never get passed” that’s not the point. The point is it’s fucking insanity that a government official would even try to make a law like this. It’s insanity that there are men out there who are trying to make it legal to kill women for making decisions for their own bodies. This is real and it’s happening right now in front of our eyes.
There is no “gender war.”
Women didn't take away men's right to vote. Women didn't ban men from education or property.
Women didn't write laws controlling men's bodies.
Women didn't build systems that stripped men of their freedom.
The imbalance never ran both ways.
Cases like this are exactly why the public loses all faith in the judiciary. There needs to be mandatory minimums for crimes this severe. 3 years is a sick joke.
They’re taking away healthcare. AI is stealing jobs. Corporations are allowed to poison food and water again. They’re slashing education. They’re starting endless wars in multiple countries. He’s using our money to build a ballroom. He’s manipulating the market. They’re dividing the country even more with a gerrymandering war. He is taking bribes in broad daylight. And they still haven’t released the full Epstein files. This is objectively the worst and most corrupt administration in history.
