like i get it, the propaganda machine is strong, but after the draft for roe v wade being overturned i just don’t see what would compel someone to support the democrats and keep voting blue. they’ve had decades upon decades to codify it (they could’ve recently, they control everything right now and they also had a supermajority when obama was first elected) like they’ve done very, very little to show they actually care about women’s rights (and everyone’s really) it’s insane. even now, biden could pack the courts or biden could end the filibuster so they could codify it now and do some jurisdiction stripping so the supreme court can’t rule it unconstitutional. and idk how the fact they aren’t isn’t disillusioning for the average democrat voter, it seems the message they’re taking away is that this is trump’s fault for appointing that one judge and they need to :vote: harder.
it’s mind boggling but it’s also just so incredibly sad, idk what it will take to show them that these people don’t care about them
This talk about codifying Roe is a real downgrade. Turning reproductive rights into a privilege which gets flipped on and flipped back off again every time we have an election is not a victory. It's better than just letting the fundies ban it entirely, but it is completely untenable.
well yeah it should be added as an amendment so it’s protected by the constitution but honestly we just need a new constitution as a whole obviously
