No one could’ve predicted this. If only we had experts in women’s health to tell us what would happen in advance of health legislation to avoid these kinds of horrible incidents.

Such a shame that nothing could’ve been done to prevent this.

You're so wrong. Did you forget about thoughts and prayers?

Gonna add a /s in case this went over anyone's head...

Motherfucker, where are you getting clear water from? And you didn't tell us?!

Oh wow, you mean the laws designed to hurt women are hurting women?

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 29 points 2 years ago

They want doctors afraid.

Pro life? go fuck yourselves.

They just want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers.

[-] ahornsirup@feddit.org 14 points 2 years ago

They want women afraid. The doctors are just collateral damage. It's not about children and it never was (if they cared about cheap labour and disposable soldiers they'd embrace immigration instead), it's about controlling women.

Didn't even have to click the link to say:

"If you're prebirth, you're fine. If you're preschool, you're FUCKED."

Making sure Women can't EVER have Kids again is Pro Life!

[-] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 14 points 2 years ago

When ever I see a story like this I always wonder if the women affected are republicans, and if so, will they remain republicans after their ordeal.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 10 points 2 years ago

For fuck sake, they're lucky that's all they lost.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 2 years ago

Everything is going according to plan in Texas.

  1. Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That's all the rules!
