‘Invoking emotionally detached uncles, then, was Higgins trying to get Republicans to see that they must present themselves as a party that proactively supports women. “It’s just not in their natural vocabulary,” she told Politico. ‘And we’re trying to help them learn how to make this be more part of their vocabulary and tell them that they need to talk about these things that their constituents all support, and be more visible and vocal.”‘
Authoritarian uncles.
I mean, seriously, Republicans TODAY have a serious TRUST issue: we cannot TRUST that anything they say they actually mean. Trump said a LOT of things and it turned out to be lies (national health care, tax breaks for the middle class, infrastructure, you know the things he never actually did).
Republicans have instead been trampling the rights of women because, well, they aren’t men. Just some place to stick a penis.
Not really human, right?
So why would you give cattle rights?
And this is the problem.
Republicans have proved OVER AND OVER that they see no problem with the violation of women’s rights as they look to nominate a RAPIST, and I’m not joking, an honest to goodness RAPIST for President.
And they see nothing wrong with that! But they STILL believe they are the “law and order” party!
Now, Republicans in Texas tell a woman she cannot have an abortion because the non-viable fetus won’t affect her (except it will) and besides judges shouldn’t make decisions.
@feloneouscat It's bad enough when doctors working for insurance companies spend a few minutes reviewing case notes and second guess the attending doctor on treatment, denying claims or referrals. People die because of this.
It's *so* much worse when politicians with no medical training spend zero time learning about the patient and second guess the attending doctor on treatment.
And this is the problem: writing generalized questionable laws that CANNOT cover all situations (because, as you say, they are not doctors) THEN an AG and Justices WHO ARE ALSO NOT DOCTORS arguing they know what is best is the HEIGHT of Dunning-Krueger effect. Republicans seem to EXCEL at this (says the person who is not a lawyer 😂😱😝).
@feloneouscat @ATXJane I'd love to see felony charges against Paxton for practicing medicine without a license.
Wouldn’t that be lucious?
Even worse is coverage refusal by algorithms
@LnzyHou @feloneouscat This is how AIs are going to kill the humans and take over, not with flocks of killer drones.😉
@walterbays @feloneouscat
Sure seems like they’re practicing medicine without a license.
