    I assume these idiots are only making noise about “protecting women” now because it’s code for “eliminate trans people”.

      Correct, they have never at any point actually cared about what happens to women. Whenever a conservative talks about protecting something it means “I am trying to hurt people I dislike”.

      They were also making noise about “protecting trans people” back when it meant “eliminate middle-easterners.” So I fully expect next step is going after women even harsher than before.

        Oh weird, I missed that bit. It’s so hard now to imagine them saying something positive about trans people, but they’ll say anything that’s convenient in the moment…

        But yeah, they’ll find a new boogeyman at some point and go back to openly hating women, no doubt.

      It’s also code for “wipe out abortion,” because there is always a non-zero chance of medical procedures having complications and psychological ramifications.

      Yup!

      Just like they coopted “my body my choice” to justify not getting the covid vaccine 🙄

      Last I heard, though, abortions weren’t extremely contagious. Sure as hell were never a global health emergency.

        WHite lives matters dint have the effect they wanted because it was already naturally raicst and it wasnt “inclusives” to minorities that were also conservative. they just mostly stuck with “woke” and anti-trans.
