So you're saying that the Repubs were successfully playing 4-D chess and the left were too thick to counter them? In this instance, yes. The right were trying to destroy democratic and judicial structures, and the left were trying to work within those structures. Exactly this. And Dems are still insistent on playing “nice” about this.

It should be noted, also, on the subject of the second amendment - it's useless sh*t just like the 18th was, and should be repealed just like the 18th.

I genuinely believe an attempt to repeal the 2nd would result in a 2nd civil war.

It would, which is absolutely f**k**g barking mad, but the gun nuts find that guns are so central to their very identity that the idea of not being able to take some guns to some places is enough for them to think about active treason.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calls for supreme court justices to be impeached. The congresswoman says Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch lied under oath to Congress about their views on Roe.

AOC isn't wrong that they lied. But those justices lied in a very non-specific manner that allowed certain Senators to vote for them while leaving them just enough wiggle room to not have explicitly contradicted themselves

Reminds me, I was reading a funding application the other day about foetal alcohol exposure that referred "pregnant people".

Who's paying for this madness? America. Not really. I mean the forced birth brigade only wants pregnancies to continue to term. After that the child can rot for all they care so not much funding will be going to support these kids.

It was really the "people" part that caught my attention. Unless you think men can get pregnant, which sounds like the sort of mistake a 5-year old might make after first finding out that the stork doesn't bring babies.

Do you not think women are people? That would explain some things.

What do you mean by "women"? Please define.

Why? I'm not the one who had the issue with the phrase pregnant people. I think people can be pregnant. You're the one who seems to have the problem here.

Ah, so you can't define "women". How extraordinarily queer considering the topic under discussion.

Why do you have a problem with the idea that people can be pregnant?
