Iran would be a better comparison with their civil war / religious war in 1979.

Willing to bet her state doesn't have comprehensive sex education or free/cheap contraception. Welcome to creating a problem so you can ensure a poor and sick population to imprison.

In case you were unaware, that show was based on a book written in 1985, which was based on real events that had all already happened by that point (and had been, for time immemorial).

It continuing to happen now should only surprise (or seem unrealistic to) those not paying attention, probably because they aren't impacted personally. Yet.

The author has publicly said she's seeing it come true.

Really? I couldn't watch it because I thought it was too realistic.

If you step outside the US you might find out we’re not viewed as leading.

Threatening? Manipulative? Maybe even petulant? Sure. But leading by fear first, everything else after. Now we add fear of our instability to the mix alongside with the normal fear of economics or bombs.

The only people saying we’re a leading nation are the ones wanting you to feel good and/or ignore all the bullshit we do inside and out. The ones that yell “leading” or “greatest” the loudest are the ones fucking us over the hardest.

Stop adhering to the propaganda pushed on you and you’ll see that America is not what it claims to be. America won’t heal until you HATE it.

We've been saving since 2020, saw the writing on the wall then. We're moving this summer.

Can't afford to leave the country but at least we can get out of the South.

It was a hard decision. All I've ever known. I'm going to miss a lot of things. Especially the land and water.

I feel like I've lost my people. I don't trust people that look like me and talk like me. It makes me sad. It makes me angry when they think I'm like them and say hateful things about other different people.

I keep my mouth shut and we keep to ourselves as much as possible. We'll be out of here soon.

Ideally women are never charged with a crime for seeking or attempting an abortion. That should settle the issue.

I mean where do you draw the line at making the pregnant woman 100% responsible for anything that happens while she is pregnant?

Oh that's very easy. The line is drawn at being rich and white.

The cruelty against poor and preferably non-white women is the whole point of such laws.

You don't have to say "In Minecraft" it's not a direct threat.
