Wow, not even a month and they are making lists.
What in the actual fuck is happening in America? Jesus Christ what a shit show America has become.
Every-dystopia everywhere all at once. Wheeeee.
Christo fascism under the veil of patriotism. Pretty much what was expected to happen...
I picked late summer. They've exceeded my expectations. Sad..
House Bill 807, nicknamed the “Save MO Babies Act,” was proposed by Republican state Rep. Phil Amato.
The bill summary states that, if passed, Missouri would create a registry of every expecting mother in the state “who is at risk for seeking an abortion” starting July 1, 2026. The list would be created through the Maternal and Child Services division of the Department of Social Services, but the measure did not specify how the “at risk” would be identified.
The same dickheads who want a registery of pregnant women would screech about tyranny if there was a registery of gun owners.
Their only animating principle is "I get to tell 'inferior people' what to do."
Before you get panicky, proposed. Anyone can propose anything, and state lawmakers are a whole other kind of crazy.
True, and crazy proposals like this in the US happened all the time for decades already.
Having said that, the amount of bat shit crazy theology proposals has been going through the roof these past few weeks
It'sll literally been weeks, it feels like decades already
The fact that someone in power even has this desire is fucking troubling.
It's like saying we shouldn't worry about a pedophile at a playground because they're only proposing to rape the children.
