States rights, that old chestnut we only ever hear about when someone wants to maintain control of other peoples bodies (slavery and abortion, included).
Also, why are you mentioning “ jewishrallyforabortionjustice” completely unprompted?
- usrn 4y agoIt's the only protest I know of that seems to have been planned two weeks before the leak was public, which strongly indicates these people are involved. That they're jewish is incidental and they seem to be inclusive. And no, states rights isn't about giving people control over other's bodies: it's about maintaining consensus and self determination. Last year people were talking about states rights to prevent from being forced to take a medical treatment they didn't want.

Is the fact that it was anticipated in advance somehow invalidating? Nothing you assert follows from what you’ve proffered (separate from the fact that what you assert is wrong). > Last year people were talking about state's rights to prevent from being forced to take a medical treatment they didn't want. Oh, so you mean another thing that most people agree with (compulsory vaccination to participate in society) being made into an issue so an rejectionist core can throw a tantrum and get lots of people killed along the way?
- usrn 4y ago>compulsory vaccination to participate in society That's extremely far from agreed upon, but if you want to take people's medical choices away as a condition for participating in society I don't see how you can even make an argument for abortion. > Is the fact that it was anticipated in advance somehow invalidating It didn't occur to me that they might register the domain in advance of the ruling just in case. That seems a little strange but I've never planned (or even attended) a political protest so I guess I wouldn't know.
