Even if people know about it, will the average person care or at least care enough to sway their vote? Everyone’s more worried about egg prices, gas or if their favorite college football team won.

Yup. We already know what America will look like with these bans. But these idiot Republicans think it’ll be swept under the rug like before. Abortion was banned in the 1920s and the number of women who’s obituaries that say shit like, “Jane Doe died suddenly due to unknown causes” is staggering. They would never mention the woman died was pregnant. Or they would say, “Jane Doe died due to undiagnosed blood loss.”

Only difference now is that we free in the information age. There is no sweeping this under the rug and the main outcome is going to be the bottoming out of what remains of our birth rates. Pregnancy is literally to dangerous of a proposition for women in red states. Keep an eye on the yearly numbers of births per state. Women who do get pregnant and can afford to move will because very few pregnancies go 100% perfect. Poor woman will resort to back alleyway abortions more often than they would have when abortion was legal.

What these pro rapist people don’t understand is, if cave women could figure out ways to end their pregnancy so can modern women. (Please for the love of God don’t take this as an enforcement of unsafe abortions but I know what path I’d take if the shoe was on the other foot.)

There’s always a short term bump in teen and poor births when bans go into place. But you’ll see. Red states will quickly become Childless hell scape very soon.

From what I’ve seen it’s mostly non-white women dying from lack of abortive care and that’s pretty much the law working as intended. Whatever the outcome they want minorities to suffer the most.

Republicans believe that if a woman cannotgive birth, she does not deserve to live

A day after this story was published, the Washington Post reported that the Texas maternal mortality board would skip reviewing the deaths of pregnant women in 2022 and 2023 — conveniently, the first two years after the abortion ban went into place. The leadership claims it’s about speeding up the review process, but of course, many members pointed out the main effect is that “they would not be reviewing deaths that may have resulted from delays in care caused by Texas’s abortion bans.”

…

That is the trap of misogyny. It allows women like Lila Rose or Ingrid Skop to pretend that, if you submit to the sexist order and obey all their arbitrary rules, you’ll be saved. But these laws punish all women and girls: mothers and non-mothers, wives and single women, women who’ve had 100 partners and those who were virgins when raped. Abortion bans make crystal clear that, to the Christian right, no woman’s life is worth saving. Anyone can be sacrificed, to protect their cruel patriarchal order.

They are fully mask off at this point, and we gave them 4 years of clean open road to entrench as much of this shittiness as they can.

gg America

That’s giving them too much credit. They actually enjoy killing people. All their policies are designed to kill people. Healthcare, policing, environment, you name it.

when life is considered within the gradations of hierarchy…
