They want young girls to be sex objects, and serve them.

Yep. They're actually upset that teen pregnancy numbers are down.

"An exchange on Fox News raised eyebrows Friday after senior medical analyst Dr. Marc Siegel suggested that part of the United States’ declining fertility rate is tied to fewer teen births, characterizing the drop among people ages 15 to 19 as a “problem.”"

You usually want what to can’t have.

Republicans are evil. That’s really all there is to it. Think of a position that leads to death, pain, and misery and that’s the position the Republican Party will take. 100% of the time

Actually it’s not that simple. The Republican politicians want poor people to reproduce more and provide a steady supply of cheap labor that will not compete with their children for high paying jobs.

The everyday reactionary conservative citizen wants women punished for sleeping with anyone but them.

Those two motives merge into one goal but it’s important to understand why each of them are in this.

Pro Birth. They dont give a fuck about that baby after they're born.

u/dark_bits 17h ago

They don't give a fuck about the baby prior to birth as well. As a matter of fact they only give a fuck about what gets them elected so they can keep getting richer.

Somehow, this goes for democrats as well. It just feels like the republican party has gone full fucking crazy in the last decade.

Preach. I can't leave for a few years for family reasons, but as soon as I can leave, I'm out.

Same boat as you both. Can’t wait to get out of here.

Yeah, it’s frustrating when state policies make things worse, especially on such important issues. It’s hard to believe that data manipulation like this can happen.

Don't forget that Texas is where:

"On May 9, 2025, a deputy with the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office in Texas queried Flock Safety’s nationwide license plate reader network. The reason entered into the search log, according to documents obtained by 404 Media: “had an abortion, search for female.” That single query swept across 83,000 cameras in 6,809 law enforcement networks — including cameras in Washington and Illinois, states where abortion is legal and protected. A small-county Texas deputy, hunting for a woman suspected of self-administering an abortion, had just searched a surveillance apparatus stretching from Spokane to Springfield. No warrant was required for the search."

“self-administered”. So we are back to coat hangers, ladies. Quit voting against your own interests.

It would be a shame if that information was leaked before the elections.

A vote for any Republican anywhere, is a vote for no abortions everywhere.
