Hey, I’ll say it: if my one of my sisters or my partner was murdered like this (and it absolutely fucking is murder when you withhold lifesaving care from someone because your imaginary friend told you to) due to bureaucratic idiocy and political culture war bullshit, I’d probably decide domestic terrorism against the people who made those rules was a great idea, and, you know, do the things that follow logically from that conclusion.
This is the dynamic these imbeciles are creating. They are playing with fire, amongst many other things. It’s only a matter of time before someone’s grief and fury at the death of their family member is forged into a weapon aimed at the heart of these fucking Nationalist Christians.
Too bad they won't terrorize the billionaires funding these people. The conservative organization is just a hydra of grifters.
This. A lot of people don't realize this whole forced birth wave is funded by the ultra wealthy. Families like the Walmarts and Sacklers are using the religious right to ensure that there will always be a lower class. For example, Walmart makes their money from exploiting poor workers and being the only place poor people can shop. But when the poors have access to education, contraception, and any other essential products/needs Walmart is weaker. And you know because money is power they've have more control over the government than a women dying from a non viable pregnancy.
They were also the major company that got caught in the scandal of buying dead peasant insurance.
