It’s worse than that. It proposes connecting pregnant people with hack job services that do not offer or consider abortion. You know, those places that prey on vulnerable women specifically to coerce them into having a baby whether or not that’s actually the right decision for them. It promotes ideology and dogma over science and dignity.

And I write women here because those services are most certainly not up-to-date with modern gender ideology. Conservative healthcare isn’t healthcare, because healthcare is science. Or at least it’s supposed to be.

It would be really gross seeing a pregnancy.gov website promoting ideas that hurt women.

America keeps fighting fascism outside of US, but invites it with open arms to their legislative bodies. Look for the post in !databreaches@lemmy.zip once the data is inevitably leaked.

We're funding it inside and out.

Heh, fascist infighting, is it?

Something, something, Foucault's boomerang.

Is it bad that my first thought goes to "have you tried a federal database that keeps track of guns, gun owners, and gun ownership applicants?" And yet I know this new idiocy is far more likely to happen than the much more reasonable yet somehow illegal federal gun registry.

Guns have more rights than people.

I keep a detailed record of her periods and bowel movements! I’m thinking of putting it online for the world to enjoy.
