What are you talking about? More than a dozen states have implemented total abortion bans since Roe v Wade was overturned. Several more have set a six week threshold (a long way from viable). Most of those states do not have exceptions for rape or incest.

Yet abortion barely figured as a point of interest in the exit polls. In the swing states, about 11 per of people said it was the most important issue (climate change came in even lower, at 7 per cent).

Most USA women don't care about abortion for themselves and aren't interested in that access, they are clearly content with those into abortion moving to Blue states and living their utopia there. Abortion is a minority issue.

In one breath, someone would tell you they vehemently supported “no limits” on abortion — “it’s between a woman and her doctor”. And then, at another moment, be quite unable to define what a woman was. After a while you began to wonder what, actually, does this party stand for? Women, or simply operations?

Tim Walz, had turned Minnesota into a “trans refuge”. He signed a law saying children could be taken away from their parents if the parents didn’t agree their child should receive “gender-affirming care”.
Who’s going to sell that to female voters?

in a choice between having your pussy grabbed, or having your child stolen and sterilised by the state, almost every woman in the country is going to choose the former.

During the campaign, it was revealed that Levine, a secretary for health, had interfered with clinical policy by pressing doctors to remove age limits on surgery for trans youth. At least 14,000 children have had their ovaries or penises removed, breasts removed, or been surgically or chemically castrated in America in the past five years. Some are now unable to have orgasms.
I don’t know what’s the bigger scandal — abusing children in the most horrible way

Why does Harper have to be an influencer? Why can’t she just enjoy school?

I would suggest all children enjoy school without all of the clown makeup!

Woke = Umbrella term for individuals who are engrossed by social justice and thinks of themselves as saviors with a moral high ground, but remain willfully ignorant to the irrationality of their claims and the problems they create. These individuals give special treatment to certain minorities in hopes of ending racism and perpetuate mental illnesses as the norm.

If you think using the term woke is a good thing then you need to get out more.

It's not misinformation. The Project 2025 blueprint outlines how they plan to deny abortion care in medical emergencies.

Project 2025 calls for the Department of Health and Human Services to dismantle the abortion protections provided under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA), a federal policy that outlines requirements for emergency departments that receive Medicare funds.
The plan recommends rescinding Biden administration guidance from 2022 stating that people needing abortion care as part of emergency treatment are entitled to that care under federal law, even in states where abortion is banned. It would also end investigations into cases where patients’ rights were violated by denial of necessary emergency abortion care.7
Further, it seeks to eliminate injunctions against states that have violated EMTALA and recommends that the Department of Justice withdraw from all ongoing litigation where it is currently defending the right to emergency abortion care.
Refusal to enforce EMTALA’s protections for abortion care puts pregnant people’s lives in jeopardy, by forcing providers to risk criminal charges if they perform potentially lifesaving abortion care.

This is already happening in states with abortion bans and women are dying as a result. Project 2025 details how they plan to make these atrocities the law of the land.

It really doesn’t matter what Project 2025 says because Trump has repeatedly ruled out abortion bans. This actually hurt him with the Christian Right, many prominent pro-lifers stayed home (but emboldened pro-choicers like me lol)

They may rescind federal funding for abortion, but that is not a ban.

Rumours that rent-a-gob Marjorie Taylor-Green will be Secretary of Homeland Security. "You have mass stabbings, lady". Donald Trump looks intelligent compared to her.

Good grief. MTG of Jewish Space Lasers fame.

You just made that up.

This is the dictionary definition of Woke: "aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)"

"These individuals give special treatment to certain minorities in hopes of ending racism and perpetuate mental illnesses as the norm."

Really not sure what you're referring to here. Can you be more specific? If I'm 'woke' what 'special treatment' do I give minorities?

@Auntyacid

What does 'can't accept being outvoted' mean?

Why would you expect people to keep quiet when someone they believe to be a dangerous misogynistic fascist had been elected to POTUS?

Also - 'woke' means 'being alert to social injustice'. Why do you think that's an insult?

I swear most of the posters on here are plants, just sent to stir up publicity, chatter and rage-baiting. It happens with every election cycle. New posters appear with inflammatory threads and comments, hang around for a few weeks and then are never seen again.

As are the vast majority of AIBU posts. Those seeking genuine support, advice or debate post on the relevant boards. AIBU is just a vehicle to drive traffic to the site

And how would you describe Trumps response to losing in 2020? "Sore loser" is possibly the biggest understatement ever Hmm

but I’m not talking about Trump I’m talking about the mumsnet woke brigade who simply can’t accept being out voted! I wasn’t delighted when labour won I think they’re awful but I wasn’t all over social media whinging about it. It was a democratic election process and he won. End of!

Yawn. It is not murder. People who call it murder are ridiculous.

@Beezknees , I absolutely do not agree with abortion as a form of contraception. I understand that there are certain, limited circumstances where it is a necessary evil but even then I believe there is a certain gestation after which I just should not occur. I do not believe a baby is part of its mother’s body but a separate human. You can disagree with me as is your prerogative but that doesn’t make you right or me wrong.

I am not "coming up" with anything. Merely pointing out the irony of a Trump supporter moaning about "sore losers", given that when Trump lost, he bleated about cheating and his supporters rioted, causing deaths. You don't think that's relevant to a discussion about losing?
