    I THINK IF I TALK LIKE THIS AND WRITE LIKE THIS IT MIGHT HARM WHATEVER CAUSE IM TRYING TO SUPP9RT. YOU WOT GIT ANY ARGUMENT FROM ME THAT I CAN TOTALLY BE A VICTIM WHILE SPECKIN LIK DIS. WHEN I DEBATE PEOPLE I LIK TO WEAR MY C**T SUPTEME TSHIRT SO THEY KNOW I MEAN BIZAND IM THE B WITH THE RIZZ.

    I guess what I'm trying to get at is that unfortunately even obviously correct opinions (i.e. abortion is healthcare, don't be mysoginist) requires some level of advertisement and salesmanship to convince people. Think about that man at Costco, he probably didn't have any male role model to teach him otherwise, and he's probably surrounded by like minded people. Getting into a shouting match isn't ever going to be beneficial for you or him, and to reach people like him requires a different approach.

    I agree that it's protected in New York, but how licensing works is that you have your originating state, and it's reciprocated in other states so you don't have to retake examinations. You typically must maintain your originating state (like if you went to Anderson in Texas for residency) or risk losing all held licenses. And trust me, these folks are nefarious enough to figure that out and use that as a way to attack.

    The healthcare providers can be criminally charged now for anything that causes an abortion. There are so many medications that can cause problems in pregnancy that healthcare providers have to protect their license and livelihood.

    The problem with the anti-abortion people (I refuse to call them pro-life, as if they have some sort of monopoly on life or understand what it is) is that they don't realize that women's health falls under so many different buckets from endocrinology to neurology.

    It's Jezebel, so I understand being suspicious but, as someone that would wear a shirt with curse words, I think that's a particularly weird thing to determine one's character by.

    Those types of people come off as rude a day unnecessarily hostile in real life regardless of gender.

    I mean if we had a subculture of people who wrote in only ALL CAPS WOULD THAT START TO PREDISPOSE HOW YOU READ AND JUDGE THEM? WHEN YOU READ THIS DOES IT FEEL LIKE YOUR INNER MONOLOGUE IS SCREAMING IN YOUR HEAD? HOW ABOUT IF I START RANDOMILY MISWRITING WORDS? CUZ THISIS JUTS HOWS I WRIT?

    My dad would do this shit all the time when I was growing up. He's blast rock and Mexican music all night long and I lived above where he'd play the music well into the night. I'd yell at him because I had school at like 7am and a lot of them were college classes when I was in high-school.

    In the end he like the people out on the road or your neighbors aren't doing it out of malice, they just don't fucking care. I don't know which is worse sometimes to be honest with you.

    From my perspective the US and it's world ambitions is no different than Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, etc.

    Russia - Wagner group used to destabilize parts of Africa

    China - regularly redrawing borders to steal parts of land from the Phillipines and Japanese. Not to mention the crackdown in Hong Kong and eventual crisis that Taiwan will bring.

    Iran - I sure hope you arent female, lgbtq, or non Muslim.

    I think what sets the US apart is the accountability, and steady change toward liberalism and more accepting society. Think of how things have changed culturally over the last 30 years?

    Personally I look forward to Peacock and NBC's around the clock coverage of the former president who said he would try and hang them for treason if he were elected (I am sadly not making this shit up). They'll happily gobble up the ratings as they elect the person who sends them to the guillotine.
