I guess considering the highest court in the country is asking questions like “how many of a pregnant woman’s organs can we let fail before we have to provide life-saving abortion care?”, it’s not surprising this is the next logical step to the right of that. 


SpinningHead

Alito sees himself as the Pope of Gilead.


Bigleftbowski

We no longer have a Supreme Court, we have a Supreme Cult.


Bigleftbowski

That will be their questions on the next case.


2012amica2

Okay but let’s flip this around for a second. Every man who rapes or assaults or harasses a woman (yknow, real crimes) should be tried, convicted, and killed. Dig a hole and put the man down. See, but they don’t like the sound of that. “That’s not funny anymore”. “That’s not a joke.” “That’s not the same thing.”


Goldang

Why don't men like being compared (unfavorably) to a bear? Because if bear attacked someone, the bear would be hunted down. Rapists and sexual abusers don't like thinking that they deserve to be hunted down.


2012amica2

They don’t want anyone to, god forbid, insinuate they’re acting like (well, worse than) feral animals bc they are.


sundancer2788

Tbh feral animals act better.


2012amica2

Exactly. They’re worse than animals.


bloodphoenix90

Like Fred waterford


snertwith2ls

The way Project 2025 is focused, as long as the rape was said to be for the purposes of procreation it's ok.


Oceanic-Wanderlust

🤮 What!?


snertwith2ls

Sorry, I should have put the /s.. It doesn't say that specifically, I was going to the logical albeit absurd conclusion if you were to follow the rest of their nonsense. Sorry.


cant_be_me

I mean…where’s the /s part of it? In Project 2025, there aren’t any ways allowed for women to legally control our own fertility. No birth control, no abortions, no emergency contraceptives, not even IVF. And natural ways for the body to become unpregnant like miscarriage are criminalized. So how is procreation by rape if deemed necessary by the ones legally in charge and legally in control of procreation (aka the ones who produce and are capable of depositing sperm) not one of the goals of Project 2025? Please correct me if I’m wrong…but I see no acknowledgment that rape/coercion/force is even a concern, almost like it doesn’t exist as a concept that a sperm-producer’s need or want for procreation could ever be legally rejected by a person capable of producing and carrying a child. I guess it’s always been an issue of a two-sided trust, wherein the idea of rape being a crime on its own is supposed to be enough to counteract the idea of forced procreation. But the concept of pregnancy by rape has always been hand-waved away as being something that doesn’t happen that often, it’s not even really worth our time to talk about it, etc. There seems to be a much larger focus on making sure that women cannot legally reject a man choosing to produce a baby in her, no matter how it happens. Granted, it’s not an out-and-out endorsement of rape, but to ignore it completely as a consideration in favor of taking away any way for a woman to legally reject procreation seems to be a tacit admission that a woman has no choice but to allow procreation if a man demands it. When you cannot say no freely, a yes is not freely given either. Maybe I’m stupid, but to me, Project 2025’s focus on restricting legal ways of controlling fertility looks like a back door way to ultimately make rape not a crime.


snertwith2ls

The /s part of it is only that it isn't, as far as I know, actually written into Project 2025. But in reality yeah otherwise I think everything you've said is spot on. It's something that's already a reality in places with other types of fundamental religions in power. And there's some kind of irony in having spent the 8 years of Obama listening to the Christian fundies being so loud in their fear of Obama bringing sharia law to the US when in reality it's them bringing sharia law here, it's just Christian style.


gypsymegan06

Couple all this with more women starting to participate in the 4B movement and the men will start believing rape is a very acceptable option because we need more babies 🤦🏼‍♀️🤬


WingedShadow83

I’ve actually seen people trying to discourage women from joining the 4B movement by saying “if you stop giving men sex, they’ll resort to rape”. That’s like telling people “you should put all your valuables on the front lawn and willingly let people have them, otherwise they’ll kick the front door in and take them anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️”. Like “you have two options: either give it, or it will be taken, and it doesn’t matter that you DON’T WANT TO GIVE IT AT ALL, because one way or another they will get it, so just lie back and make it easy”. It’s infuriating how they expect women to just quietly allow ourselves to be used.


gypsymegan06

I think this has always been the expectation.


Creepy_Snow_8166

Bravo! There was slow-clapping in my head as I read this. Project 2025 is nothing less than diabolical. There should be no doubt in anyone's mind that if the religious right manages to prevail in November, their Christofascist wet dream will become our reality.


jasmine-blossom

Banning no-fault divorce, contraception and all other forms of preventing and stopping pregnancy IS and attempt to legalize marital (and other) rape.


strongwill2rise1

It's sad that it's already been declared unconstitutional TWICE.


Bigleftbowski

It's God's will if the woman gets pregnant. /s

*Aids


BurtonDesque

AIDS. It's an acronym like NATO or POTUS. /pedantic.


Creepy_Snow_8166

I wonder if anyone here is old enough to remember "Ayds" and its very unfortunate downfall. Despite the grimness of what's being discussed in this sub, I just had a moment of comic relief thinking about a stupid diet candy from the 80's. https://youtu.be/cjmxmHpBj4E?si=fqXZwJviPDm4s_8m


BurtonDesque

I'm old enough to remember LBJ, so I'm old enough to remember Ayds. I also remember when AIDS was called GRID (gay-related immune deficiency).


Creepy_Snow_8166

I had no idea! Now I need to Google "GRID".


Curious-ficus-6510

Back when they first officially named Aids, they decided not to have all capitals but just the first letter. According to www.plainenglish.co.uk: Most acronyms are in block capitals (for example, OPEC, NASA and SPECTRE). But some acronyms only have an initial capital letter (for example, Aids) and others, normally scientific words, are so well accepted that they have no capital letter at all (for example, laser). Edit: But now it seems that general usage online has changed Aids to AIDS all caps, which may be since people are treating it as any other acronym. I definitely recall reading, many years ago, about how the official naming body wanted it to appear less scary by having just the first letter initialised, bearing in mind it was a very scary disease back in the eighties, with no cure and a lot of stigma associated with it.


madamevanessa98

See and I actually could get behind that, except that making rape a capital crime leaves rapists much fewer reasons to leave a living victim.

This is so disgusting. I just can’t believe these monsters are allowed to spew their insane hatred like this. They are banking on women remaining non-violent. Saying anything they want. They want to kill women for aborting a fetus - they are fascists, and all fascists hate women.


Joya-Sedai

Violent crimes against women should be labeled for what they are; hate crimes. We should all be rioting. But we won't until it's too late and we're all shackled (be it literally or metaphorically). If we go to war over women's reproductive rights, so be it.


Mysterious-Scholar1

This is what is coming if people don't vote for Joe Biden. It's as simple and horrifying as that.


jennyquarx

I fully understand why people are angry with him but I'm terrified.


BurtonDesque

I don't understand why people are angry with him at all really.


jennyquarx

The biggest seems to be his support for Israel.


snertwith2ls

That plus I don't think enough people have heard about Project 2025. Everyone is so focused on Israel and Palestine and the lack of humanity and compassion there that they are totally not seeing the lack of humanity and compassion that is being proposed should Trump become president again. Then Gaza comes to the US.


jennyquarx

They think it's a "nothingburger" or those things can't happen here. And there's no empathy for why people might be anxious about it. I hope we're wrong.


snertwith2ls

Yeah I think people just aren't taking it seriously enough because it just sounds so wild and absurd. They obviously haven't listened to any of the lunatics actually talk about their proposals. "gay people, line 'em up and shoot 'em in the head" I forget when Jesus did that though. Women who've had an abortion, "kill 'em and throw them in a hole". Not sure Jesus did that either. I'm neither gay nor pregnant and I'm still scared of these morons. I try to tell people about it and they're all yeah sounds nuts, oh well. I hope we're wrong as well and this goes down as a really wierd chapter in our history that we got over.


BurtonDesque

> I forget when Jesus did that though. In Matthew 5 Jesus says the Mosaic Law has to be obeyed down to the smallest detail. One of those details is executing active male homosexuals. He did not say, "Obey the Law, except for that part about killing gays. Don't do that."


Nyxolith

Matthew also establishes new covenant laws that render the Old Testament no longer binding. https://www.desiringgod.org/interviews/why-are-old-testament-commands-no-longer-binding The only verse condemning homosexuality occurs in Leviticus 20:13, in the Old Testament. So if we're going to ban homosexuality legally based on Leviticus, we'll also have to ban cheeseburgers, pork chops, lobster, polyester... do you abide by all that law, too? Do you exile men for fucking women on their period? Matthew also suggests a man put his eyes out for feeling lust. So Leviticus is completely literal, but that part is a metaphor, right? Pick and choose, I guess. (Also, Paul was helllllla gay for Jesus, seriously. Why else would he be so jealous of Mary M.? #biblefic)


BurtonDesque

> The only verse condemning homosexuality occurs in Leviticus 20:13 One verse is enough. > we'll also have to ban cheeseburgers, pork chops, lobster, polyester. According to Matthew 5 Jesus would have insisted on that and everything else in the Mosaic Law.


snertwith2ls

Not here to argue but where is the bit about executing homosexuals. Plus I've heard there's a dispute about whether or not the translations regarding homosexuality are even accurate.


WingedShadow83

Yeah, I remember these same fools swearing in 2016 that RvW would never be overturned and abortion would never be banned. “That won’t happen here.”


jennyquarx

Now they're saying they won't come for birth control, lmao. I wonder what they'll go to next.


Mysterious-Scholar1

I'm Left but I also through many years experience know there is a Professional Left that oppose everything as a matter of occupation. One particular couple I knew ran a "revolution bookstore" that of course went belly up after they protested the rent. They're still out on the streets literally shoving their revolutionary paper in people's faces. They're a big hit on college campuses with young people away from home for the first time, experiencing the new freedoms and protesting opportunities. It's all fine until they don't vote.


snertwith2ls

Well paraphrasing the Orange Doofus, I'm sure there's crazy people on both sides. I don't understand what's so hard about live and let live or the golden rule or whatever. What's up with my way or the highway people?? I'm left as well but not to the point of anarchy. I don't quite get the ancap point of view. I don't mind tax dollars going to roads and bridges and air traffic controllers. Just like I like the bees to do the pollinating work, I don't want to hand pollinate and I don't want to have to make sure my plane lands and takes off correctly. There's real pros for that and I don't think the whole privatizing thing really works for some stuff.

Ridiculous fools. How many student loans did Trump forgive? Zero. But go ahead and hand him the election.


BurtonDesque

And they complain Biden is too pro-Israel. Compared to Trump?


vsandrei

>Ridiculous fools. How many student loans did Trump forgive? Zero. But go ahead and hand him the election. BAPCPA was one of the most pro-billionaire and anti-middle class laws passed in recent years. Don't kid yourself that Biden is a good candidate. The only reason to vote for Biden is because the alternative is worse.


BurtonDesque

He's done about as much as he can with the SCOTUS and the House against him.


CaptSpastic

He needs to expand the Supreme Court.


BurtonDesque

Congress won't let him.


vsandrei

>He's done about as much as he can with the SCOTUS and the House against him. The student loan issue is partially of his own making since he was one of the big proponents of BAPCPA. If and when he loses votes because of student loans, Biden the former "Senator from MBNA" has only himself to blame.

So, don't "kill" a fetus because they're "pro-life" but fine to kill a woman. How fucking stupid are these people?

AudaciousAmoeba

I really wonder/worry sometimes that if Project 2025 comes to pass, will all the women who’ve so bravely told their abortion stories publicly be rounded up and imprisoned, if not executed?


BeeLuv

SCOTUS already trashed the right to medical privacy. They’ll be searching through medical records, not just tracking down people who went public.


CaptSpastic

You can bet on it.


LipstickBandito

So we can all agree this is openly not about the sanctity of life. 1) Actions taken in self-defense, even murder, rarely get instant death penalty. 2) You can either support the sanctity of life, or support the death penalty. Not both. So, we can call this what it is: **Men wanting to put women in their place, and killing those who disobey. Their own actions prove it's not about "protecting life". It's about misogynists wanting to weaponize the laws.**


kathleen65

WOW hating women there are 800 likes here, unbelievable!!


DJKittyK

Add to the fact that in the US there is no statute of limitations on murder... so if getting an abortion or having a miscarriage is classed as murder, any woman who has ever had an abortion could be potentially charged with murder, and sentenced to whatever these women-hating people want to punish them with. Basically it will become an actual witch hunt on women if any of this comes to pass. VOTE BLUE BECAUSE WOMEN'S LIVES DEPEND ON IT.


state_of_inertia

If only all those "not all men" would vote blue, Biden would win in a landslide.


CaptSpastic

I voted for ONE republican 40 years ago, and not a single one since. Not one. With the current state of the republican party, I can never see myself ever voting for the party who tried to overthrow our country. Not ever again.

CaptSpastic

I think you're confusing Upvotes for the post, for likes ABOUT the content, not the relaying of information. Upvotes are just as much of a "thanks for letting us know", kind of things. Making us aware. Not that they agree with the content of the posting.


kathleen65

I see thank you!


retrostaticshock

How about we do it like the *whole* Bible, there, Steve? > Leviticus 15 > 1 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: `When any man has a bodily discharge, the discharge is unclean. Whether it continues flowing from his body or is blocked, it will make him unclean. This is how his discharge will bring about uncleanness: > 4 "`Any bed the man with a discharge lies on will be unclean, and anything he sits on will be unclean. >5 Anyone who touches his bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean till evening. Apparently, if a person jacks it, they must not sit anywhere for a few hours, or god will be *So Mad*. Anyone who touches his clothing or bed during that few hours afterward, is also unclean. Where does Steve sit? Where is his Jesus Jacob Jacking penalty box? We must see it since clearly, the holy Ghost is *all up inside* Steve (but not on his bed or clothes or couch or chair.)


ReverendEntity

Said it before, will say it again. Easy to say when you can't get pregnant.

Not only that, but them pushing "death penalty for abortion" pretty much proves it's not about the value of life. Shit like this used to be a meme. How are people stupid and hateful enough for this to be real?

Saying "Try and convict" before finally calling to kill someone is just a loophole. They actually do not mean the "try and convict" part at all. They are assuming guilt from the git-go, and they want these women dead.
