The fate of the abortion pill mifepristone is now before the Supreme Court, after a fifth-circuit appeals panel of three judges ruled against its distribution last summer.
According to a new report, the wife of one of those judges—James Ho, a Trump appointee who previously served as the solicitor general of Texas—took at least six payments between 2018 and 2022 from the conservative legal group that brought the case to court.
The US is systematically failling. Just going to an election every couple years to decide between two parties who are both reponsible for and defending this current status is not going to cut it.
How are people like you still both-sides-ing for upvotes when one of those two parties is filled with literal fascists and Nazis and the other just forgave billions of dollars worth of student debt? Wake the fuck up. Your false equivalence only serves to help the fascists. Unless, of course, that is your goal?
I agree with you, both parties are not the same and we need to make sure the fascists don’t win any elections. But the person above you didn’t say not to vote, they just said voting isn’t enough, which is true. Voting is a form of harm reduction, but it’s also the least effective form of civic engagement. If we want to really change this shit, we have to get more involved than just voting every few years.
The problem with what you are saying is making voting sound like it matters less than it does. Voting is all the majority of people can do. Most people have jobs and families to take care of and can’t be political activists. However, they can just take one day out of their year to vote.
It does matter less than being more involved though. If that’s all you can do that’s perfectly fine, but if we really want to fix things we need those who can to be more involved, that’s all.
voting is not harm reduction
Umm, akchually, fascist = fascist, sure, but antifa - anti = fa = facesit = fascsist, so clearly, as proven by my undisproveablely proveable equation, both sides are clearly fascist, frogs are gay. If democrats are stonewalled every step of the way, clearly theyre just not democracying as hard as republicans are fascisting so theyre to blame just as much as the other so, again, both sides = same.
Check.
Mate.
Reality.
I don’t know if that facesit was intended but please don’t fix it if it wasn’t lol
Totally was :p sorry if thats a disappointment xD
It’s this absolutely blind adherence to a party that pretends to care about you. You’re just looking like a tool thinking Democrats aren’t racist fascists, thinking they aren’t taking corrupt money and skirting the will of the people.
You bring up student debt, but forgot to mention that Biden is funding Trump’s Hitlerian wall. Biden busted unions. Gaza.
Sounds like you’re the one dumbing down your own beliefs to feel comfortable with the Democratic Party.
