Another woman killed by an abortion ban.
NEW:
In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.
She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.
Then she died.

It would make America a banana republic to investigate the very obvious crimes of the former president that he is extremely guilty of
it's a real shame there wasn't just a Democratic president with control of federal law enforcement for 4 years, otherwise it would be pretty fuckin outrageous that he didn't find this

Feminists have long been scared of looking mean, and as a result we’ve been way too nice to antifeminist women. Sorry no, you’re not submissive, servile, and dependent because you’re a woman and that’s just your feminine nature. You’re submissive, servile,and dependent because you lack self respect.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

It’s hip on the left and right alike to hate “liberal feminism” (a term I challenge detractors to define—usually the “liberal” is silent). But the fascists of our moment hate nothing more than the actual liberal feminist ideal: a public sphere where women are equal. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/o...

"the revolt of the bosses" is a good way of framing the elite reaction to woke 1. what's particularly interesting is that this isn't a reaction to an attack on profits--it's a reaction to changes in workplace culture--

I suspect that the revolt of the bosses element of all this really is explained by: a bunch of upper echelon Americans really didn't like the cultural and workplace changes induced by Woke era, some portion of them were pushed into internet insanity, but most just wanted a shift slightly right....

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Consider how few anecdotes it took for the media to declare a Free Speech on Campus crisis.
Every day we get more evidence that the Republican Party is teeming with white supremacists yet elite institutions refuse to frame this as a crisis that needs the nation’s attention.

These people have no juice. Their supporters are cowards. They are are all bark and no bite. They collapse when we push back. Remember that.

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?
Our recent poll found that women 28 and younger skew substantially more left than the national average. Nearly 80 percent of Gen Z women want abortion to be legal and seven in 10 want gender-affirming care to be accessible for trans adults.

I appreciate Ernst Fraenkel’s concept of the “dual state,” wherein a fascist regime (in his example, the Nazis) will observe set rules and regulations when confronting some actors—what he calls the “normative state”—and will use arbitrary, unchecked violence towards others—the “prerogative state.”
If we were living under fascism, none of you would be here daring to post things. You'd be erasing your social media accounts and keeping your head down; you'd know that peacocking your faux-bravery on a network would expose you to being disappeared.
You have no idea what "fascism" really means.

As noted in thread, AZ Medicaid does not pay for abortions, so we're talking about services like cancer screening & birth control.
