SCOTUS set to overturn Roe and Casey

The leopard would never eat MY face.

Fails and Crain believed abortion was morally wrong. The teen could only support it in the context of rape or life-threatening illness, she used to tell her mother. They didn’t care whether the government banned it, just how their Christian faith guided their own actions.

Been saying that for ages. The race angle is just how they sell it. Anyone with more brain cells than a MAGA/NatC and able to look at data... would realize that forced-birth policies will result in a lot more black and latino babies than white babies.

Unplanned parenthood may take some or all of a person out of the workforce, but it increases the desperation for income for those supporting that person. Keeping people in debt, and trapped in shit jobs for the income security. And as the population grows, job competition makes it an employer's market, with more desperate unemployed people willing to take lower pay for any kind of job at all.

Religions are all too happy to push that message too because more desperation drives people to faith, or at least communities of faith, for support and solace. And of course, once they're embedded in the community, they're obligated to tithe.

It's always about money. More cheap labor for the rich, more tithing seats filled in the church... and fuck the kids who'll grow up and be jobless because automation and AI have closed off entire job sectors.
