Uterus? More like ourterus.

Nougat , to Politics in Trump judge: Women owe us more sonograms

You know, at first I was like, "Ehh this highly editorialized writing is a bit much," but then I read:

"Unborn babies are a source of profound joy for those who view them," he wrote in his Wednesday opinion. "Expectant parents eagerly share ultrasound photos with loved ones. Friends and family cheer at the sight of an unborn child. Doctors delight in working with their unborn patients—and experience an aesthetic injury when they are aborted."

Every bit of snark in this article is fully warranted.

I came here to post this - have an upvote.

But I have to ask - I experience an aesthetic injury every time I see a MAGA hat. Does this mean I have a case?

PrincessLeiasCat ,

This is so fucked up. And how does he even “know” this? How many “injured doctors” has he spoken to?

I’m a woman, I have had several OBGYN’s, men and women. I’ve asked many about their stance on abortion because I live in a southern state, and this is of particular concern to me. They have all answered with professional and medical responses.

Never has this weird shit come up.

Nougat ,

I have to think that OBGYNs have to always be prepared to be faced with tragedy. So many preganancies end badly, most often for no reason whatsoever. In that kind of circumstance, I cannot imagine being able to tell a woman that no, this will not end with your having a happy, healthy baby, and you're not going to be allowed to make your choice about what happens, or start the healing process. Just wait for your body to reject the fetus, and hope you don't go septic.

It's fucking barbarous.

@spaceghoti 's been posting about GOP bullshit like a machine. I think they deserve the room to rant on this one. It's at the carton villainy level of stupid, and they've gotta be suffering PTSD at this point after slogging through all that idiocy.

Besides, now I'm curious as to who ElliotRodgerFan48 is and whether or not they're trollable on the Fediverse.

I’m nearly at the point where molotovs sound like objects of worship. Open corruption deserves open cleansing.

Bagofbuttholes , to Politics in Trump judge: Women owe us more sonograms

Was sworn in by Thomas at the home of Harlan Crowe.

How is that ok? How did this Crowe stuff just come out if they were using his house to swear in judges. Maybe I’m wrong but, that just seems really off.

shiveyarbles ,

Yeah this judge was groomed from the start to be a billionaire class sycophant.

archiotterpup , to Politics in Trump judge: Women owe us more sonograms

Isn’t he the one who wrote the bs DoJ memo stating a siting president can’t be indicted? Also level defense memos for torture?

spaceghoti OP ,

No, that memo was written in 1973.

Philo , to Politics in Hey, Republicans! It's Trump who "criminalized politics," by turning the GOP into a two-bit mafia

Hence the RICO charges with lawyer that made them famous against the Mafia being defendant number 2. Talk about irony.

They don’t give a shit because they’re not arguing in good faith. You’re not going to convince them of anything with “Hey Republicans!”

They know exactly what they are doing.

It’s like two brothers who know they committed a crime, but no one witnessed it, so as long as they both keep up the lie, no one else can ever say the truth and know it to be true. Every single one of them holds the truth in their chest, believing they can change the truth of reality as long as they reject reality and substitute their own “truth” and never, ever admit the reality.

It’s all a purposeful charade to take power and avoid responsibility. Period. That’s all it has ever been.

Rats and sinking ships have never gone well together. I sure hope this rat gets what he deserves by enabling such an incompetent and completely unqualified president and administration. I also hope his turning on trump is instrumental in his downfall.

They're not very creative, so they can't think up other nefarious schemes so they just accuse their enemies of what they're doing. Grooming kids? Check. Corrupt sons of presidents involved with "overseas investors?" Check. Stealing an election? Check.

Phlogiston ,

Its not about being creative — its about muddying the swamp they’re swimming in so that you can’t see their own corruption.

Semi-Hemi-Demigod ,
@Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social avatar

Considering that twice-impeached, multiple-felony-indicted Trump is leading in the primary polls, I don't think they care about their own corruption.

Ubermeisters ,

I think they like the smell of their own farts

AngrilyEatingMuffins ,

It also works to help obfuscate Democratic corruption as it's nowhere near as bad and when pointed out is immediately compared to the much worse Republican corruption, which in turn pushes the envelope (full of cash) forwards even more. It sucks.

MrSpArkle ,

There’s a reason dollar amounts are seldom mentioned in conservative Hunter Biden tabloid articles. Otherwise simple math would reveal the comparative and objective scale of potential foreign interest.

we watched him do this shit for 4 years 3 years ago, and they’re “stunned” about this now???

they knew. they always knew. that’s why they went into business with him. this objection is purely performative so they can take his dirty money while trying to stay clean.

but they’re still just as dirty

Sanctus ,
@Sanctus@lemmy.world avatar

I’m so sick of everything being blatantly corrupt. You can’t take a shit without it making four shady deals on the way down to the water. The rot has spread so much the cleansing flames would engulf the world. Human potential, wasted completely on profits and racketeering. It would take a global movement to uproot what has taken hold of all of us.

bauhaus ,
@bauhaus@lemmy.ml avatar

I’m not so big on the “cleansing flames” part, but I agree with the rest.

Sanctus ,
@Sanctus@lemmy.world avatar

It meant we’re so entangled with this shit that undoing it would unravel the world. And every elite is drinking from their own glass, they truly believe they do no harm.

bauhaus ,
@bauhaus@lemmy.ml avatar

they truly believe they do no harm.

eh… I don’t believe that. maybe some of them might, but I refuse o believe they’re all so oblivious to the harm they cause and that at least some of them aren’t enjoying it.

Sanctus ,
@Sanctus@lemmy.world avatar

They aren’t oblivious. They justify it in their own minds. Maybe I’m saying that because I don’t want to believe we built a society that turns psychopaths into gods.

Don’t mind the libertarians booing you. Its obvious a society built on individualism and man-eat-man would turn to this. I still don’t want to believe this is the best we could come up with.

libertarians, you say? is that what the nazis are calling themselves this week?

I’m well past caring what strangers on the internet think of me, trying to hurt my feelings with imaginary internet points.

Shocking! Said no one, ever.

keeb420 , to Politics in "I've never seen anything like it": Economic analyst stunned at sources of Jared Kushner's funds

No shit. He's corrupt af. Between the bone saw incident and him potentially selling out our secrets from trumps trove of classified documents he should be under the jail. If I can see it it should be painfully obvious to anyone who can actually do anything.
