“I certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally,” Vance said in the episode, explaining why regulating abortion at the state level wouldn’t work. “Let’s say Roe v. Wade is overruled,” he said. “Ohio bans abortion … you know, in let’s say 2024. And then, every day, George Soros sends a 747 to Columbus to load up disproportionately black women to get them to go have abortions in California. And of course, the left will celebrate this as a victory for diversity.”
J.D., abortion is legal in Ohio because voters put it on the ballot as a citizen lead imitative. We got reproductive freedom (including abortion) written into our goddamn State Constitution because our republican “representatives” continuously refused to listen to the will of the people.
From a neighbor one state away, congrats again on that BTW (and on recreational marijuana).
Thank you neighbor. You should also know those authoritarian fuckers are doing all that they can to make ballot initiatives illegal or impossible to get through.

@Montana Secretary of State
At least you have them. We don’t :'(
They’re trying that here in Missouri for the same reason: the people keep overriding the legislature with ballot initiatives.
How fucked is it that, for all of us.
A reminder that democracy is constantly under attack and that we should never give up the fight.
Lol Indiana sucks donkey dick.
Learning about Vance over the last few days has been intriguing (I didn’t even know he existed until a couple of weeks ago).
The overall impression I get…
Imagine that for every situation an individual is in, there’s a number of different lines of dialogue they can choose (like a romance game).
Then imagine that each response is labeled - there’s the kind response or the strong response or the selfish response or the funny response or whatever.
It’s as if in essentially every single situation, regardless of any other factors, J.D Vance chooses the asshole response.
The dialogue setup in the video game Fallout is exactly this. Just a useless tidbit for those who don’t know.
I was thinking exactly this, lol
Whenever you’re asked for help you get the option of yes, yes, sarcastic yes, and not yet but it’ll be a yes later.
And every once in a while, you get the, “I know we were just trying to murder each other, but have you thought about a relationship?” options, which can be interesting when you find out the apocalypse made everyone bisexual, including the robots
Of course this is mostly a 3D Fallout issue. Fallout and Fallout 2 had more intricate dialogues, Fallout Tactics isn’t an RPG, and Brotherhood of Steel is obviously perfect and doesn’t have any issues.
This sounds more like Starfield.
Do you wish to say: yes, snarky yes, aloof yes, or ok fine
Wasn’t JD Vance a Fallout character?
I thought fallout characters had better writing.
He’s one of those Fallout 2 NPCs that only has floating dialogue.
Worse, he is a Fallout Tactics random stop NPC.
So absolutely identical to Trump? I get why he was picked now.
I mean, I understand why the dip shit picked Vance, but that was a massive mistake/a win for the left. The VP pick is supposed to cover the candidate’s weaknesses to help gather the center votes. All the rotting orange did was make it even easier for someone not paying enough attention to see what an awful choice they’d be.
Vance was picked because he is Peter Thiel’s little bitch, and Thiel is Musk’s bitch. No other reason.
No wonder Trump picked him.
I liked when JD Vance called Trump America’s Hitler.
He didn’t change his opinion of Trump. He changed his opinion of Hitler.
Repubs like it too.
I think these articles should also include his pre-VP consideration comments on Trump and his policies. Gold like these:
In a February 18, 2016, USA Today column, he wrote, “Trump’s actual policy proposals, such as they are, range from immoral to absurd.”
In April 2016, Vance said, “Trump is unfit for our nation’s highest office”.
In a private message in 2016, Vance wrote, “I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole like Nixon who wouldn’t be that bad (and might even prove useful) or that he’s America’s Hitler.”
I’m so sick of this guy already.
in the Grossest Way Possible
For those that don’t want to click through:
“I certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally,” […]
“Let’s say Roe v. Wade is overruled,” he said. “Ohio bans abortion … you know, in let’s say 2024. And then, every day, George Soros sends a 747 to Columbus to load up disproportionately black women to get them to go have abortions in California. And of course, the left will celebrate this as a victory for diversity.”
Woooow. That’s just unbelievably stupid. What’s even more depressing is that people actually fall for this shit.
Wait. Don’t they hate black people? Why would they want more around if that were so. None of this makes sense. “I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!!”
Unwanted pregnancies lock people and their future kids in worse material conditions.
It also creates a group they can point at while nattering on about “choices”.
What’s the point of being the master race if there’s nobody to be master of?
Can JD Vance STOP WEARING GIRLS MAKEUP? That’s ILLEGAL!
The grossest way possible? I don’t see what he’s saying here that’s outside the norm for the pro-life side. Black women have abortions at approximately 4.5 times the rate of white women. If you believe allowing abortion is harmful, then such harm happens disproportionately often to black people.
(A similar argument can be made if you believe that banning abortion is harmful. Either way, black people are more affected.)
man this guy sucks. He’s like if hillary clinton was a die-hard republican.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Vance sat down with Aimee Terese — a pundit and podcaster little known to the American public, but prominent in the sloppy trenches of hyper-online digital reactionaries — and removed his filter.
And then, every day, George Soros sends a 747 to Columbus to load up disproportionately black women to get them to go have abortions in California.
The news that came out of Ohio after Roe was overturned and the state banned the procedure wasn’t George Soros loading up 747s in Columbus to transport women to California for abortions.
No, the national news story out of Ohio was about a 10-year-old girl who had to travel to Indiana for an abortion, after she was raped by her mother’s boyfriend.
Last year, after Ohio voters enshrined the right to abortion access in the state’s constitution through a ballot referendum, Vance was distraught.
“There is something sociopathic about a political movement that tells young women (and men) that it is liberating to murder their own children,” he added.
