Texas Republicans Call For Execution of Women Who Receive Abortions, IVF In Horrifying Video

[Shadow Wolf]

You can't be that daft on what you precisely see here.

I also think of China, Venezuela, and Greece when it comes to socialist policymaking.

You know full well how those countries had turned out.

What about Capitalism? That one has allowed for slavery, for corporations to act as their own psuedio-nation (and their track record is nothing better than misanthropic), it allows for the world to be destroyed amd polluted for a buck and it's taken bloodshed and death just to assure we work in an environment that has safety regulations to help ensure we go home at the end if the day.

 

[Shadow Wolf]

This is not nothing new. What is new is that the US population is currently going hard line against this policy. The supreme court decision or the Maga republicans pushing the argument has built up strong resistance to any politician running on these policies. The upcoming election is not going to bode well from Republicans seeking support from these extreme abortion groups.

I'm not sure it will be that easy. Voting rights have been relentlessly assaulted in some states that were removed from play as solid Republican states. There is still the issue how they gerrymander to silence voices rather than make sure they are heard. There is still the reality of the courts they have played hardball to stack.

 

[F1fan]

Women's rights, the environment, LGBT rights, contraception, freedom from religion, voting rights, worker's rights and labor laws, education, reading, these amd so much more are at risk and threatened by Republicans.

And notice @Twilight Hue hasn’t specified any actual threat that democrats pose to the future of America or generations.

The vague boogeyman of “socialism” is just baseless propaganda. He and other conservatives will repeat it over and over, and offer no details. Nor will they offer any solutions to problems that persist.

 

[Brickjectivity]

Wow! We need to be more aware of how these maniacs are infiltrating our politics at every level of government and slap them down hard at the polls.

Not only does the group want to execute anyone who has an abortion or provides one, they want to outlaw IVF and contraception. Person who engage would be tried for murder.

Texas still has the death penalty for murder.

Do we have something saying the Republicans will support the death penalty? No. Its just political noise not worth considering. Have fun, Echo Chamber.

Republicans do support criminal conviction though, so that is real. Death penalty? No. Criminal conviction is foolish for something like this, but its not the death penalty or sharia either.

Yup.

The Democrats are not even voicing opposition on having open socialists in their party.

The notion that the majority of Democrats are not socialist or socialist sympathizers is pure bullocks as evidenced by not a single one making any objections or voicing concerns over it.

Unless of course you want to point out any who are.

I believe that is an example of standing for the freedom of democracy. Our country tried ousting communist rather than letting them voice their opinions per the 1st amendment and that didn't turn out so well, now did it?

BTW -- I'm definitely not a socialist, and ABSOLUTELY NOT a MAGA, but I strongly believe in individual freedoms within a democratic republic for people to choose to be these "labels."

Texas GOP meets group suggesting death penalty for women who seek abortions

A leaked video appears to show Republican officials at a meeting held by an anti-abortion group pushing for women to be prosecuted for having abortions.

Are we sure this isn't fake news by the Democrats? If not, it is electoral suicide.

 

[Callisto]

Those Texicans sure do love to execute people. It's their go-to solution for every problem, it seems.

Welcome to Howdy Arabia, home of Y'all-Qaeda.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

There just needs to be an all around definition of when a fetus is to be regarded as a human where the protection starts.

Also it's just a meeting. Not proactive legislation. Let us know when that actually happens.

Didn't the Revolutionary War, the rise of the Nazi's, the Bolshevik revolution, 9/11, the Civil War and other historical events start off as meetings?

 

[Callisto]

They always talk about rights. But I wonder about responsibilities. If a pregnant woman dies as a result of the pregnancy, could the fetus be charged with murder, or manslaughter? Would it be tried as an adult?

How about twin resorption, would the remaining fetus be charged with murder? Cannabalism? Both?

My younger brother was supposed to be twins. We used to tell him he ate his twin. I wonder if my siblings and I would be accessories after the fact?

This would be obviously wrong...

However, it does seem like the cut context out to make it say something that might not have been what they were actually saying.

Do you have a point on the video where they actually supports that position that isn’t chopped and cropped? I couldn’t find it, to be honest.

"Women should be free to choose the contraceptives they need without cost getting in the way.

So, we’re making contraceptives free."
- Justin Trudeau.


It is like living in a different universe.

 

[Revoltingest]

Even that word "all" makes the claim fall apart.

I intended "all".
Socialists are generally unaware of what they support.

 

[Revoltingest]

The problem is, too many on the right suppose that everybody leaning left is a socialist.

So many presumptions.
So many errors.

Not so! Many of us on the left favour individual freedoms, capitalism, profit motive, competition and so on, but not without some necessary restraints. It is, for example, possible to have rules that restrict individuals (you're not allowed to murder, or take somebody's stuff), without herding them. It is possible to have some rules in business and commerce (no monopolies, don't destroy the environment) without the state taking over ownership.

And here's the thing -- I don't think that "socialists" are even a majority of those on the left. In fact, far from it.

Aye, many lefties are fire breathing capitalists.

 

[Revoltingest]

What about socialist libertarians like me?

"Socialist libertarian" is an oxymoron.
Authoritarian economic control inexorably (per
history) inevitably leads to social authoritarianism.
Libertarianism is liberty both social & economic.

Socialism brings the road to your house where your liberty begins though you are welcome to live without the rest of the world if you want to try.

 

[Revoltingest]

Socialism brings the road to your house where your liberty begins though you are welcome to live without the rest of the world if you want to try.

Socialism is defined by the people owning the means of production.
Not by providing things like infrastructure, schools, courts, etc.
When government (the people) take over making cars, growing crops,
etc, liberty dies. It has every time anyone tried it.

Yep, and this is what all too many don't understand, especially if one uses the Nordic Model that creates more opportunity for all, not less. Nordic model - Wikipedia

The Nordic model employs capitalism.
