From CNN, “If that bet pays off, and red state Republicans suffer no midterm defections over this surge of socially conservative legislation — an outcome that may be the most likely possibility amid the extensive public discontent over President Joe Biden’s performance — pressure inside the party to lurch policy further to the right will only intensify, not only on abortion, but also on the broad range of cultural issues energizing conservative activists. … This increasingly confrontational posture toward abortion in red states tracks with the GOP’s trajectory on other social issues. Republican-controlled states have also moved toward more militant positions on LGBTQ issues. … On every front, ideas that once might have been considered on the fringe inside the GOP have moved rapidly into law — and, in most instances, inspired copy-cat proposals in other states. Democrats have struggled to respond to this offensive [naturally!], both at the state and national level. … All of which suggests that if voters don’t send a cautionary signal in November, the red-state drive may be just beginning to roll back the ‘rights revolution’ of the past six decades — and return the US to a pre-1960s world in which people’s basic civil rights and liberties varied much more depending on where they lived [emphasis added].”
It’s already too late, f***tards! I have said countless times for years, so I won’t belabor the point. Suffice it to say, if we are relying on dumbass Democrats or the “average” voter to do the right thing or care, then America is f***ed. Indeed, we are f***ed. The tide has already turned, morons. Mark my words, f***tartds! Americans are too stupid to apprehend the dire state of politics because — inflation! I’ve also said (for years) that perhaps Americans need to lose everything before appreciating the rights they used to have. An enlightened electorate would need not go through the wringer to become cognizant of that thing called “right to privacy,” but America is the least enlightened nation on the planet. The only way ahead is through — not back or around. Oh, well. Welcome to stupid America!
