We need to do our due diligence as US citizens to understand the historical context of that which we discuss. So often we oversimplify history, as @2ndMississippi stated and we need to do better. The Museum of American History through the Smithsonian is a great resource.

[Michael Brasher @2ndMississippi]

Oversimplification of some historic facts. In 1860 political parties printed their own ballots. The Republican Party was a regional northern party and did not exist in those referenced southern states. Thus, he was not on any ballot in the south. Sometimes history is a bit more complicated than will fit in a simple slogan.

[Sarah Nagel @gingerbagelss]

@snowleapor @davemauFIVE @simonateba Blanket ballots that included all candidates didn’t exist in US elections until 1888. So, in 1860, it was impossible for any state to “ban” a candidate. Each political party handed out tickets that included only the names of those in their party, for which people used to vote.

Hint: If you oppose abortion rights,
which Jesus never mentioned,
because you are so deeply Christian;
but support the death penalty,
which Jesus directly opposed,
the rest of us are no longer obliged
to take your Christianity seriously.

jewish law requires an abortion if the fetus is threatening the mother’s life. “religious freedom” in america only ever applies to the white christian masses.

Elections have repercussions! 6-3 court leading us to the Handmaid’s Tale can all be traced to the “I’m gonna sit this one out” folks of the 2016 elections.

If US Supreme Court overturning #RoeVWade was about babies, there would be:
Universal healthcare
Free birth control
Free education
Free daycare
Child support
Criminalisation of all rape & child marriage

As with all abuse of women, this is purely about male power and control

You can help codify Roe v Wade by taking your rage to the polls this November.

[Marci Liroff @marciliroff]

If you think Roe v Wade is simply removing a woman’s right to abortion, think again. Roe V Wade is healthcare.

the overturning of roe v wade makes jews, muslims, and hindu people unable to practice their religion. religion only matters in a debate when it’s about christian’s
