    I mean the government has just basically stripped a fundamental right from half the population. What's more, the people who did this are entirely unelected, there's so few of them you could cram them into a minivan with more legroom than an average economy flight and the process was so opaque that the only way we found out about it was through someone leaking the plans.

    I'm not entirely sure what other option people have at this point aside from public unrest really. That seems like probably the sort of thing a functioning society should do and I swear to fucking god if I see any of these shitheads condemning protests and in the same breath criticising the Bad Country of The Week for being authoritarian I might actually scream wordlessly into the void of the night sky. Or the internet I guess.

      And then send that minivan driving off a cliff.

        You know Brandon would just replace them all with more far right people in the name of fairness. Sadly, this is the best we are ever going to have.

          To be fair to Biden, he probably wouldn’t replace them with further right people, but whoever he’d appoint would still be bad.

            To continue being fair, I'm pleasantly surprised by his pick for the court.
