When you take a step back from the alleged issue at hand and look at the deeper meaning of the ruling, you begin to see things that you were not aware of such as the incredibly racist element to the ruling.
Roe v Wade was the replacement for Jim Crow. They saw us “minorities” becoming the majority population and were desperate for a way to curb our population growth. They encourage us “darkies” to kill our babies, be unemployed and underemployed and cut our access to education while white women have near unlimited access to education and are encouraged to use contraception rather than head straight to abortion.
This ruling is a step in the right direction where ALL are equal and it is representative of the collective will of the majority population of the US which is mixed race people!
It is not lost on me that almost all of those complaining the loudest are white females. The Anglo female has spoken from a position of extreme privilege for generations and until now has lived nearly consequence free. The loss of such privilege may seem like tyranny but I assure you that the rest of the country is delighted that finally you will be held to scrutiny and treated as an equal! Marie Antionette Syndrome aside, you will be okay. This is exactly what it looks like when the laws passed under the guidance of the Nazi monsters (who escaped justice via Operation Paperclip) is reversed.
I find it hard to see the equality.
privileged women will still find ways to get an abortion. Poor women, mostly belong to the populations you referred to, will have to remain put in their conservative countries and carry unwanted fetuses.
The solution is to use discretion. You know, like an adult.
@nathanpieters thank you for mainsplaining how to manage our uteruses. What ever would we do without you.
It wasn’t just me. Everyone responsible adult in your life (beginning in middle school) has told you the same thing.
But you do you. I’ll be over here laughing at your dumb ass.
I’m over here trying to figure out why you’re so angry when it’s obvious that nobody would willingly copulate with you. 🤔
that is incredibly presumptuous of you to think that all white females are privileged and have access to the kind of reproductive healthcare you describe. I personally am a woman who has been in this position and have many friends who's partners and family refused to fork out money for private terminations, thus resulting in backstreet abortions. If you think abortions in a clinical setting are horrific, believe me you have NO IDEA what you're inviting here.
Oh yes the poor disadvantaged white female who can openly lie, throw public tantrums and apparently finds it tyrannical that it might be expected to use contraception. She is above reproach and says “just believe me” and throws an epic tantrum when we say “prove it.” How could I forget her royal highness?
What happens when a man says he doesn’t want to use contraception? He’s vilified. A pervert. Classified as a “rapist” even if the woman decides she wants to continue without protection. And hey, it’s just adorable if a woman makes advances and even meddles in someone’s personal life because she has a “work crush” but if a man respectfully shoots his shot in any environment he’s automatically labeled a pervert.
Only in the US can a woman decide a month later that she regrets the decision to have sex and accuse a man of rape, after giving consent, and live consequence free when he is later released from prison. Only in the US can a woman say she is “oppressed” by having to use fucking contraception while living off public assistance, sitting in a Starbucks with her unfinished $8 coffee, playing on a $1200 phone while unemployed and completely unafraid to walk out in public alone and unarmed, which cannot be done in any other part of the world.
You’re so accustomed to your luxury that you think personal responsibility and discretion is tyranny!
Yes, you are privileged. Society has given you an eternal crutch. You look like you’re about 50, so I’ll say this…you’re old enough to know better. If your friends keep finding themselves in backalley “clinics” with unlicensed people chopping their babies out, then they’re idiots. A $5 box of condoms would have prevented it all. I’m sure they can do just as much whining from a $1195 phone as they can from a $1200 phone. There’s no excuse for willful ignorance. Grow up.
@clairemobrey i notice your profile says you’re from Cape Town
You’re not even American or in the US.
You have no fucking interest here but hey here comes another white female who feels she’s so privileged that she can tell other countries people what to think and act outraged like ANY of this affects her.
Ah yes, the “endangered” white female.
Go ahead. Call me something racist. Its in your blood, don’t deny yourself the opportunity to impose your white will on someone else.
It’s too bad Mandela didn’t blow up your school bus.
