In Texas now, a doctor who performs an abortion on a woman who doesn't want a child faces 99 years in prison. But a creep who slips abortion meds into his pregnant wife's drinks, causing their baby to be born with complications? That's six months. Tell me again how it's not about punishing women?

Per @jessicavalenti.bsky.social, the total number in all the red states is 65,000. Not a typo.
Since Texas banned abortions with no exceptions for rape or incest, 26,313 Texans have become pregnant from rape. That’s roughly 1,644 rapes resulting in forced pregnancy a month. Family court then traps victims with their rapists.

The Supreme Court using a completely fabricated harm to justify actual harm towards people who face real discrimination is an apt metaphor for modern conservatism
