The US is actually going to implement a nationwide abortion ban and the measures for how it’s going to be handled are already in the works. This bill, which I link to here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolution/7/text , seems ok at first glance and only seems to want to implement nationwide healthcare centers for women. But when you actually look at what these Pro Women’s Healthcare Centers are and mean to offer, it becomes really clear what’s going on.
On the first page of the PDF or booklet that appear when you search for the healthcare centers it is clear that they are supported by pro-life organisations and hold extreme pro-life values. And when you read the (very short) booklet it states their values and services that are to be provided. Among them is a requirement for “Abortion Pill Reversal” and encouragement for “Sterilization Reversal”. The last page clearly states their values, where among them it states that:
“Abortion is not women’s healthcare, because of the damage it causes to women’s physical and emotional health and the destruction of unborn life, many of whom are females. Abortion is usually something women turn to when they feel they do not have another choice. This is a tragedy and the opposite of choice and empowerment.”
And it goes on to list similiar values. The bill to implement these healthcare centers states that:
"That the House of Representatives—
(1) expresses its support for women nationwide to have access to comprehensive, convenient, compassionate, life-affirming, high-quality health care; and
(2) recognizes the high standards established by Pro Women’s Healthcare Centers consortium as standards worth implementing nationwide."
This means that the values that these Pro Women’s Healthcare Centers have are to be set as standards nationwide.

So you admit that a vote for either Democrats or republivans was a vote for genocide… and you’re still blaming the voters for failing to vote for genocide?
Make it make sense.
While voting for Kamala means nothing changes But here is the fun part not voting for Kamala means the genocide comes to the states too!
Hey, maybe if the genocide comes here the Democrats will stop supporting it.
…Nah, who are we kidding? The Dems will just keep compromising in the hopes of appeasing the billionaire owners of this country.
As long as they can pardon their friends and family while getting rich. Nah they would never…
JFC. Even if both candidates were identical on the issue of genocide— they’re not, but even if— you still stack up and compare all their other differences and you fucking vote for the best one available, because I guarantee that we wouldn’t be talking about an impending nationwide abortion ban if Kamala had won.
If Kamala had won, all we’d be talking about today would be Jan 6th 2, the inauguration day terror attacks, and how the Democrats are already bending over backwards to capitulate to petulant Republicans.
Oh, no doubt. I’d rather have that any time over what we’re talking about instead!
If Kamala was in office now then Trump would be a shoe-in for 2028.
I think I prefer our current reality where the Democrats might actually be forced to move left to reclaim their electoral relevance. They aren’t of any use to me so long as they care more about bipartisanship and meeting Republicans halfway than actually addressing the pressing issues of our time.
