Dating in FL is hard because so many women identify with the party that is literally trying to take their rights and freedoms away. People are so fucking stupid.


Profeen3lite

Very shallow understanding of people's views.


twotwentyone

Nah it's not Stop trying to legislate against bodily autonomy


Profeen3lite

I all for abortion, but suggesting Republicans are rapist? This reminds me or how the nazi swayed public opinion to hate jews. You don't seem to far off from justifying violence. I mean why not right? All Republicans are rapist and want to control your body


[deleted]

You realize that the leader of the GOP was just found liable for sexual battery yesterday right?


Profeen3lite

Ok, does isis make all Muslims terrorists? Trump is a scumbag who would be better dead. I'm not proud to see such an uptick in radical Republicans but opposition breeds resistance. We need to find a middle ground and de escalate our political climate. I have no issues with abortion, background checks, and wait periods for guns. But red flag laws go too far. I truly wish we had a moderate party that fit my beliefs better. But our media on both sides and our elderly leadership do all they can to divide and have us rally behind different groups and cliches, which furthers the divide and break down of civil communication. 90% of the people reading this are doing so with a biased mindset and simply want to argue to try and make me fall into a more aligned thought process or simply self censor. Neither of which is good for the progression of our country. I don't hate democrats or Republicans, I'm sure a large majority of both are honest, hard-working Americans trying to make an educated judgment on the state of our nation. There will always be radicals, evangelicals, and others who just want to stir the pot to make an easy buck. We need to look past that, we aren't so different. I truly want the best for everyone here and want our country to be a better place. I don't support anything that gives the government more tools to interfere in our lives. Abortions, trans care (for adults) are things I would never support the government interfering with.


[deleted]

I wish I shared your optimism, but I also watched a bit of the CNN Town Hall last night. Watching an entire crowd of Trump supporters laugh at him being found liable for sexually assaulting and defaming his victim isn't a difference of politics. It's a difference in basic morality. I've said it since the beginning...outside of the richest minority, almost no Trump supporter is voting for him because his policies will benefit them. How could they...he doesn't HAVE actual policies. They like him...they LOVE him because he gives them all permission to be the worst versions of themselves. That's a divide that we can't unite without completely eliminating Fox News from our society.


RIPdantheman616

Lol, that seems like some type of logical fallacy argument? No one said all Republicans, the meme points to when Republicans do it, they are not specifying a quantity. And no one said anything about violence. I will not date someone who hates the lgbt community because I am a part of it. I will also not date someone who will obviously vote for things that are making their own lives more difficult. It a self defeating mentality. It's like they are masochist and like pain. It's doesn't make sense. You're going to date someone that punches themselves?


MadDog_8762

“Like pain” This is actually an interesting point Let’s de-politicise just for a sec There is a very strong argument, historically, of understanding the need to intentionally and willingly take on a harder life Looking at things like Stoicism or Spartanism The idea that “we must not give into what is easy because it makes us weaker” is not a new or strange concept. And arguably is what has built some of the strongest nations out there.


narsin

I don’t think the original commenter is saying that all republicans are rapists. I don’t see that anywhere in their comment. Are you referring to the meme? Because it’s not saying all republicans are rapists either, just that recent republican abortion bills usually don’t include exceptions for rape. As for bodily autonomy, it’s pretty fucked up that republicans are interfering there. One party is literally taking away the bodily autonomy of half the country. You can’t make friends with people who are literally passing and supporting legislation that makes your life a nightmare. Do you think Trans people should just be nice with republicans even though republicans are doing their absolute hardest to make sure they don’t feel like citizens. At the end of the day, republicans are passing policies that are dangerous to a person’s health without any kind of real consultation with experts in the fields affected by their legislation. It’s just all culture war for their elected representatives. How do you make friends with people who are actively attacking you through legislation? You don’t.


barak181

Republicans are perfectly ok with the guy caught on tape bragging that he grabs women by the pussy. He was also found liable of sexual battery in court yesterday. (Not to mention the trail of accusations going back 30 years.) A blanket statement calling them all rapists is only a bit hyperbolic.


MadDog_8762

Your bodily autonomy stops when another life becomes jeopardised I cant “do what i want with my body” if what I want harms another human


twotwentyone

Sure you can. That's the whole point.


MadDog_8762

No, No you cant That would be murder. If you go out and stab someone cause “thats what I want to do with my body”, that is a no-go Body autonomy does not cover actions that harm another


Necr0Z0mbiac

~*You people are so stupid*~


MadDog_8762

Im sure your approach will help build dialogue and trust necessary to move the country forward, thank you


[deleted]

u/Necr0Z0mbiac atleast explain your views holy god thats not how you promote discussion An argument for abortion is that the fetus in the womb is not sentient yet because enough brain development has not occured and thus an abortion would not be murder, because said baby is just a clump of cells and not a full life form yet Another argument would be that pregnancy takes a huge mental and physical toll on the mother and having to raise a child when you didn't even want to in the first place is HUGELY detrimental to both the parents and the child. How the child is raised impacts the child's development and their whole life Even if the mother chose to give the child up for adoption, she'll still have to face 9 months of pregnancy and the baby will have to be lucky enough to find another guardian in time, ideally before 2 years of age since after that not having loving parents around hugely impacts brain development


Necr0Z0mbiac

~*Repeat*~


twotwentyone

Nah. Stepping on an acorn isn't killing a tree. Terminating a clump of cells isn't killing a person. Abortion ain't murder.


MadDog_8762

Then please provide the exact, objective line where a “clump of cells” becomes human….


bentbrewer

Birth and that clump of cells takes a breath. According to God anyway.


CapitalPerception439

As far as I am concerned, that embryo or fetus inside of a women's body, is still apart of her body. I think that covers body autonomy.


MadDog_8762

“As far as I am concerned” That is a fair opinion, it is an opinion none the less, so not a strong counter argument


CapitalPerception439

Why do you care so much about this? Here is another opinion of mine. Would if we worried more about people's basic needs, like healthcare, housing and food than trying to oppress them more? I feel like women would feel a lot more comfortable bringing a baby into this world if they knew they wouldn't have to struggle every step of the way. I see that you claim murder for abortions, so what is it when the women has a miscarriage? Is it manslaughter, suicide, gods will or just an unfortunate event?


MadDog_8762

Well, if you see someone being murdered in an alley, do you stop and do something, or continue walking saying “not my problem”? Because the anti-abortion view is that you are murdering unborn children, fully deserving of their right to life. Comfort has no bearing on “right to life”. You have a right to life when the economy is doing good And you have a right to life during a depression A miscarriage is an unfortunate event, like an accident, it is nobody’s fault (assuming actions to CAUSE such an event werent done) Same as a heart attack or other natural cause of death.


[deleted]

This is like someone hitting themself in the head with a hammer on purpose and you're like "wait hold on maybe they're secretly a genius"


Profeen3lite

Don't think they are secretly a genius, I think people need to try and understand each other more. Makes me sad to see Americans at eachothers throats over politics. Seems like we are right where they want us.


Geichalt

>I think people need to try and understand each other more I understand republicans perfectly and strongly oppose everything they stand for. You can do both, you know that right?


Prodigal_Malafide

We understand them. They have told us who they are. We should believe them. I grew up in rural, very conservative areas. No one here is misrepresenting their views in the slightest.


Nanocyborgasm

“They?” You mean Jews, right?


Profeen3lite

No lol, the government. This is exactly what they want. A divided American people are a vulnerable American people. Weird thats what you thought of, I don't subscribe to that nonsense


Nanocyborgasm

Those racists and homophobes are just misunderstood, right?


Profeen3lite

Are you willfully misinterpreting? I'm not defending racist and homiphobes I'm saying there is alot of good people who aren't like that also who are being lumped in with a radical right.


Nanocyborgasm

No, there aren’t any good people among fascists.

GeneralNathanJessup

The GOP is racist, and that's why they want to restrict women's constitutional right to abortions. They know that African American women get abortions at rates 400% higher than white women, and that's why they want to deny this right. [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7436774/](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7436774/) This is a racial equity issue, and we need to frame it as such.


Guilty_Chemistry9337

Republicans care more about hating black people than they care about their own vaginas.


NumerousTaste

They also blocked an equal rights amendment again.

How very peaceful and tolerant of you to wish people die in a mass murder.


IndividualAbrocoma35

Only with a military grade automatic weapon and in states that proudly bragged how they made it possible. Thoughts and prayers 🙏 My tolerance ended about 500 mass murders ago. Now I wish for them to feast on their own.


Commandingtherainbow

almost all Republicans want an exception for rape, incest, and health of the mother. In my state, Wisconsin, the DEMOCRAT governor rejected a bill that would expand abortion. We have a law from 1849. Republicans but an updated version allowing for rape, incest, etc but nope, democrats rejected it.


myTchondria

Please post a source for your assertion. I have googled this several times and have not been able to find anything. On the contrary I have found many articles that Evers tried hard to get the recent Republican draconian abortion law pushed back.


Commandingtherainbow

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/wisconsin-s-democratic-governor-vetoes-five-gop-abortion-bills-n1285350 Thats the leftists propaganda on them. That isn't what they really said but I can't find copies of the actual bills.


myTchondria

“I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again today: as long as I’m governor, I will veto any legislation that turns back the clock on reproductive rights in this state — and that’s a promise,” Evers tweeted in announcing the vetoes. It is not propaganda but the truth. I invite you to stop reading/listening to fox news and get your information from Reuters, AP, BBC, etc who are ranked high on facts


Commandingtherainbow

Then why did he deny a step forward? He is a liar and I wish I had the bill infront of me. The 1849 allows for only health of mother. Update would include rape and incest. He killed that bill. So Evers things rape victims and incest victims ahould be forced to have babies. This is what Evers did. Side note, Reuters and AP is propaganda and is not acurate. If you think it is, you need a reality check. BBC isn't a thing in America. I like my information direct. So if it is news on the bill, I normally download the bill. You should do the same. Then you would be agreeing with me.


myTchondria

Thanks for the recommendation. But no, the truth is only as good as the source. I have some extended family members with the same frame of mind. Like you they refuse to expand their sources. I do review many articles by fox, news max etc but they are not based on truth and literally tens of other sources show where the truth can be found. We will not agree on this so I wish you a good day. There is no way to find common ground.


Commandingtherainbow

I use well over 50 news sources. How many do you use? I think you just can't distinguish between propaganda and news. Always go to the original content they are writing about. Then you will see how much is propaganda. CNN is the worst offender.


MadDog_8762

Hmmm… Where is “right to terminate another life” listed?


vponpho

Someone should report the kid who made this to the fbi. Dude is definitely going on a mass shooting soon.


Billybob_Bojangles2

Did you just vote shame a theoretical rape victim, and then strawmanned the rapist into being a republican? Wtf is wrong with you people


Ctotheg

Can you explain your thoughts further? Not arguing with you I just want to understand your thoughts more clearly.


Billybob_Bojangles2

OK bear with me. Op just made a strawman, and dubbed her a rape victim. He then made a strawman rapist, and dubbed him a republican, and then alluded to the fact that all Republicans are rapists. Furthermore op then shamed the rape victim for her voting patterns, alluding further that she is voting for her assailant. This is not only cringe, but kind of Fucked up. It's borderline rape victim blaming if you look at it right. Make sense?


Ctotheg

I understand what you mean .


SilentIntrusion

It's not wrong. Republican woman are significantly more likely to suffer sexual and physical abuse from their spouses; Republican states have been barring access to abortion since Roe was overturned; and Republican states have been pushing through child marriage. So yes, Republican Women, as a voting block, vote in the same people who are likely to rape them and take away their ability to seek justice or even just to terminate their rape babies, often before these women are even adults. Republicans, by and large, are rapists and rape apologists.


myTchondria

This is literally what happened today. Trump accountable for sexual assault. Pence comes out and says no cares about republicans sexually assaulting people. And how many “ magat republicans “will vote for trump anyway? Mike Pence doesn’t think voters will care about the Trump sex abuse verdict https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/mike-pence-trump-sex-abuse-verdict-e-jean-carroll-rcna83647


wwonka105

There still is no right to an abortion...


Guilty_Chemistry9337

There is always a right to an abortion. It is a god-given inalienable human right. You denying it is you being a dirty ass tyrant motherfucker.


wwonka105

Don’t confuse legal permission and a right. Your rights are in the constitution. Which amendment are you talking about, asshat?


vincereynolds

Well, before this partisan court, that would be covered under the 14th Amendment dealing with liberty especially when it concerns medical decisions. You could just google this instead of aggressively questioning the previous commenter.


wwonka105

Yea! Confirmation bias! Did your “simple google search” turn up the over ruling of RvW means the 14th Amendment wording of using the word “person” is flawed? RvW was a court ruling giving permission not a right. Congress needs to step up and it is hardly likely that they will.


vincereynolds

Yes I did the research and no, it gave the right...since the used an Amendment based on rights to justify the ruling.


Guilty_Chemistry9337

>Your rights are in the constitution. Yes, like the right to abortion. Which is why you rapists are wiping your ass with the Constitution by trying to take that right away.


Geichalt

>Your rights are in the constitution. If you think the constitution is what creates rights you don't understand the constitution.

This subreddit needs to be renamed. Leftist memes. None of these are political they're all from one side. I can tell because Jesus Christ they suck in the left still can't meme.


SilentIntrusion

Maybe the right just holds contemptable and idiotic positions? I mean, one side based their views on creating a better society for all, the other condones rape, child marriage, and is openly courting theocratic fascism. Just remember, the camps were full of people who thought the state would never turn on *them*.

myTchondria

Why do republicans take away all the helps in their states such as Medicaid, housing, jobs, education, healthcare, and more? Why is a innocent only important when it’s in the womb? Republicans don’t care about innocents. If they did they would support all the ways needed to raise the innocents. It’s a war on women and their right to bodily autonomy until republicans start passing laws that supports innocents… all innocents.
