I don't know why you'd assume women are getting returned to the kitchen. We have a lot of stupid fucking regressive laws but the Supreme Court has had very little impact on that.
the "returned to the kitchen" remark was kinda tongue in cheek, but anyway (maybe im not wording this right) but this is another step towards fascism. we're not there yet, but letting right wing psychos more access to controlling the shape of the law will be very bad. this will influence culture and strengthen the already incredible grip of the right.
This isn't good news but the Supreme Court can be countered in a number of ways. There are bellwethers of fascism in this country, but this is not one. It's not great but there's a lot of ways it can be fought entirely within the system.
okay, i will keep that in mind, but these becoming states rights issues again will make things demonstrably worse. on the other hand, returning them to states rights issues might actually motivate people to do something to change them. we'll see i guess.
i wasnt thinking of the handmaid's tale? but there are plenty of real life examples of theocratic repression in this country, and it will get worse.

I tend to have faith in people, if not Americans, so I think the other hand is what's likeliest.
