    Is that really the quiet part anymore? The GOP being anti-choice and pro-matricide is pretty fucking obvious.

    The quiet part, for me at least, is being anti-democratic, anti-interracial marriages, and wanting to forcefully convert Americans to Christianity.

      I wouldn’t even say the last one is the quiet part. They are pretty forward about that, too.

        Sorta? With both the last ones they’ve been open about discouraging it but our current Scotus seems to be chomping at the bit to kill Loving v Virginia and I’m sure they’re doing homework to try and kill separation of church and state.

          FYI, the expression is “champing at the bit”.
