    I was talking to someone from work about my family history, and it's a sensitive subject, but I told them I'm only alive because my mother had to have an abortion due to a severe ectopic pregnancy. This was a year before I was born. She was going to die without it. I said this to them because I've been feeling like shit lately and I have hardly anyone to talk to. So I thought I might as well talk about the sensitive things in my life.

    Guy looks at me, and in a very calm and soothing tone asks, "Should we report your mother? Would that put your mind at ease?"

    Like dude really thought I was upset that my mother never got arrested for her abortion 30+ years ago, the very abortion that was able to save her life and make it so I exist. I don't trust anyone anymore. I fucking hate Texas and how deeply this place has a fascist infection. Get me out of here please.

        at this point, you should disobey any law your conscience will let you (so like, anti rape laws (lol they're not even real laws, no need to break them anyway) and maybe anti murder laws might be safe) so as to degrade the institution of law; low grade propaganda of the deed.

            they 'exist' but they don't... I've seen two rapists be properly prosecuted. in my entire life. one was caught by the fire department trying to kill himself, and confessed.

            the other's victim's daddy was a prosecutor, and she was like eight, so he couldn't just call her a whore and kick her out, and had to be angry at another man.

            i've heard a lot of first hand accounts of rape victims being raped when they tried to report. it's 'illegal' but its not illegal. its one of those laws that exists not to pretend like there's safety for the underclass by setting us against each other (branding some 'criminals' and making us go to daddy for protection from the scaryscary other), but to pretend like there's consequences for the overclass and wrist slap them to disperse a peasant mob that's gathering their pitchforks. because the entire point of laws is to prevent justice.

        yeah they were like "oh still tell us, but this info will go into your record and it can be requested by the police or other authorities"

        I find that a little fucked up that they'd even say "still talk to us about it for your health" but i get it, women should and definitely need to be able to talk about it for one, but two: they probably can't come right out and say "we dont wanna get you in trouble" without getting in hot water with this fascist ass state themselves

    I fucking hate this god damned country

    Fuck the chuds and their evil cult but fuck the libs for being too weak, spineless and apathetic to do a single damn thing to stop them

    Liberals want me to give a fuck about :ukkkraine: because they think Russia and China are the enemy, no my enemies are in Texas and Utah and Langley Virginia

    In China abortion is legal and they treat reactionary religious extremists as the danger to society that they are

    :guts-rage: THE ONLY WAR I SUPPORT IS THE ONE AGAINST TEXAS!

    We need to march south a burn down every single anti-abortion/anti-LGBT+ church that stands in our path and unless one of you talks me down, I'll be locking their vile preachers inside

    They aren't Christians, they're fucking demons and this land should be cleansed of their rot with fire

      Love the energy comrade. I'm right there with you. One thing I am gonna have a quibble with:

      They aren’t Christians

      The overwhelming majority of self-identified Christians (certainly mayo Christians) are anti-abortion. This is what Christianity is, right now in this country. And for 1,700 years, Christianity has generally been used by the rich and powerful to oppresses those with less power and wealth. For every time it's been liberatory I can give like 100 more examples of it being reactionary and evil. I get there are leftist Christians, and you all are cool. But I think we ignore at our own peril that by and large, Christianity itself (or those who who use it) has been the enemy of liberation over the centuries.

        Christendom is the OG white nationalism. The second Christianity went from a fringe Roman cult to the state religion (probably because the state saw that it was able to make people do insane things against their own interests) it was a tool of oppression and in its current form (last 1300 years at least) it's been a tool of specifically Anglo superiority.

        A belief system that wholly detaches the believer from material reality, grants them the power of God who now speaks directly through them (and always agrees with the ruling orthodoxy), and the right to conquest of all unbelievers who stand in the way of their God (the socioeconomic orthodoxy of the state Christianity is practiced in).

      you don't need to lock anyone anywhere. start the fire, barricade all but one exit, be outside in a good position. stampede should do most of the work. or do barricade all the exits. whatever; you do you.

      make sure to do some endurance training beforehand! that's like the most important thing.

            that's fine, as it turns out we're allowed to have differing opinions on the matter

    Intrapartum cervical lacerations are traditionally thought of as occurring due to the delivery of the fetus through the cervix at the time of vaginal birth.

      Yes i think she was getting confused with the cervical spine, which is reasonable
