    edit suggesting the edit Carter or Clinton era is appropriate comparison to the appetite for, or viability of abortion legislation today, as relates to the supreme court ruling and what should be done now is silly.

    So did they have the votes or not? Looks like not.

    Edit edit just having dems in seats is not a vote, automatically. To be clear, I acknowledge your points about supermajority, and move no goalposts as my original reply said “support”.

    Last edit: I edited several times to clarify. I understand if you are already replying and don’t see em.

      You can continue helping the duopoly fundraise with these culture war and identity politics talking points, but I don’t like to keep my head in the sand when I already when down the rabbit holes.

        Uh, alright.

        I mean trying to deploy a “gotcha” on democrats as a monolith doesn’t make sense when just achieving supermajority does nothing to guarantee either an appetite, or a true ability to pass a given legislation.

        I agree with your message that it should be codified into law. I believe the appetite for roe law has never been higher, or more viable as legislation.

        I don’t know what you mean by talking points, youre the one who showed up with a poster board lol.

        Further, if I’m helping the duopoly by talking about getting roe passed, then so be it. Roe isn’t a “culture war” topic. It’s a human dignity and bodily autonomy topic.

          I see it as just another culture war and identity politics talking point so as to divide the working class.

          I am more for focusing on the class war, and we start that by stopping ourselves from falling for the duopoly talking points and excuses by being their apologetics.

            The working class needs bodily autonomy, or what else do they have?

            I acknowledge the stain on the soul of the democratic party, but I also acknowledge that if roe becomes durable law in my lifetime, a Democrat will do it.

              roe becomes durable law in my lifetime, a Democrat will do it.

              It raises too much money for them, so I am doutful on that part.

              I have gone through many rabbit holes since the Bernie Sanders Era, lies, and failures.

                I don’t see how anyone else will.

                Republicans aren’t interested, third parties aren’t viable.

                  Well, if you fear change from the status quo, nothing will ever be viable.

                  We need to be willing to fight for what we demand; that means getting over the fearmongering pushed by the duopoly.
