Sure, the base loves it, which is why they are doing it, and it keeps the others side’s panties in a bunch, but it’s all just a distraction of the real goal.
Get power, keep power, make more money.
Texas just put “intelligent design” back in the class room because of course they would. Dumb people are easier to control and manipulate. Do you still hear anyone talking about that?
It’s the same with the bathroom thing that was such a scandal a few years back. Do you really really believe these politicians give a single shit about any of that? It keeps people busy and talking about non starters while you erode rights, funnel more money to the select few rich, and make sure you stay in power no matter what.
Now with climate change, some asshole senator brought a snowball to show that climate change is false, one of those times they actually try and take the issue head on, but that’s getting really hard now that it’s become so bad that there just isn’t any denying anymore…
So in comes abortion pills!
Do you really really believe they care? This is just another bone for people to chew on so that they can continue spewing CO2 cheaply and get richer
It’s fodder for the propagandists to shout at you all night. To manipulate you into voting Republican because they make you so mad about a reality that doesn’t exist or that they invented themselves for you to be mad at. They take Twitter morons and say that person is everyone on the left…
It’s all culture war bullshit to distract you from fighting for actual causes that are directly affecting ALL OF US.
They may be distractions but…there are a LOT of true believers. Several SC Justices actually believe this is a war and the most important thing to focus on, for example.
Counterpoint: With or without us, eventually the planet will be unable to sustain life. As someone who arbitrarily values the continuity of life, and without certainty life exists elsewhere, I consider humanity life’s best and possibly last chance to get off Earth before it’s too late.
It is crazy that there are all these fights for women rights at a time where we should focus on making the humanity survive the ecological apocalypse…
All these things are just distractions.

A-fucking-men.

We would have the science and technology and time to do so IF WE SLOWED THE FUCK DOWN W/ THE CO2.
For sure. Was just disagreeing with us being the worst species ever.
