And now Republicans are pushing to stop no fault divorces in America.

Introduced in the 1970s, female suicide reduced by 20% and domestic violence dropped.

Another crappy way to control women.

Already there are covenant weddings in 4 states that are incredibly hard to leave

Seeing takes about how Biden is just the same as Trump is making my brain melt and I want to eat my shoes.

Just encountered an enbyphobic post in the For You tab about how nonbinary people don't exist somehow and that we're somehow fake and cis. In the year 2023. Fucking hell.

Never thought I'd see that out in the wild but okay.

listen obviously people are not a monolith and within american republician voters there probably are different opinions but it’s very funny to me to see on tiktok republician voters being like ‘I can’t believe democrats cut off people for voting for trump’ and then I swipe to the next video and it’s a televised conservative panel reacting to the kamala harris ad about votes being private with ‘if my wife secretly votes for a democrat that is worse than having an affair actually’

hi I'm a kid. I'm a nonbinary lesbian child. And just seeing your stuff about the election makes me feel better about this. I'm so scared dude. For thanksgiving my family might be going to my republician grandparents and I plan to tell them they voted against their grandkid being able to marry. I'm sorry I'm rambling but just thank you for the stuff you post you make my day so much better. It's nice to know there's decent people in this country

i’m glad i could help, anon 🫂 i wish you the best of luck with your family. i’m also very scared but we’re all in this together, we can get through this if we don’t lose hope. please stay safe and take care of yourselves and if anyone ever needs to talk or ramble i’m here.

“Oath of Allegiance to Crown to Soon Vanish,” Kingston Whig-Standard. February 28, 1933. Page 1 & 12. ---- It Will Become Dead Letter in Anglo-Irish Free State Treaty - Senate Blocked de Valera Move But That Body Now Rendered Powerless ---- (By the Canadian Press) DUBLIN, Irish Free State, Feb, 28. - Sixty days from tomorrow the oath of allegiance to the British Crown will vanish from the constitution of the Irish Free State and become a dead letter in the Anglo-Irish treaty. 

President Eamonn de Valera will effect its disappearance by a motion in the Dail Eireann invoking Article 38A of the constitution, rendering the Senate powerless to obstruct passage of his Oath Removal Bill any longer. The constitution provides that bills which the Senate refuses to pass in such a manner as to satisfy the Lower House will, at the expiration of fifteen months, become law despite the Senate. In the event the Dail is dissolved in the meantime, the waiting period is shortened to sixty days. 

The oath question has dominated every election campaign since the Free State was founded and has caused endless acrimony and bitterness between large sections of the Irish people. 

Section That Offends The section of the Treaty to which so many Irishmen have taken offence says:

"The oath to be taken by members of the Parliament of the Irish Free State shall be in the following form: I... do solemnly swear true faith and allegiance to the constitution of the Irish Free State as by law established and that I will be faithful to H. M. George V, his heirs and success by law, in virtue of the common citizenship of Ireland with Great Britain and her adherence to and membership of the group of nations forming the British Commonwealth of Nations." 

It was on this section that Mr. de Valera and his followers in 1921 founded their objection to the treaty and refused to recognize it. William T. Cosgrove and his party, however, found no cause for complaint in the section and insured that the oath clause in the constitution which was framed later should be a strong one. 

Made Mandatory Article 17 of the constitution made the oath mandatory. The Republicans refused to take it and remained outside the Dail, leaving Mr. Cosgrave and his adherents with a clear field. 

For a while the Republicians pursued a policy of abstention, contenting themselves with getting elected to the Dail and boycotting the Assembly. At that time all the Republican forces were concentrated in one organization, styled "Sinn Fein" (literally "ourselves alone"), but they grew tired of abstention and loss of political capital in the few years that followed. 

After the 1932 elections when Mr. de Valera found himself heading the Government for the first time he immediately attempted to remove the oath. He was blocked by the Senate, He is now in a position to force removal of the oath but is still faced with a possibility that this move will fail to satisfy left wing extremists including the old Sinn Fein,

"Where exactly do you think the KKK and radical Islam place on the political spectrum? Cuz it sure as shit ain’t left."

Not to say your point was wrong (because it's correct) but I mean... the Klan was created by the Democrats of their day. And Jihadists may not be a specifically left wing thing, but Lefties are the ones who slobber all over Muslims good or bad because "America bad" and "Muh brown people"

I agree that maybe the Klan wasn't the best example due to how...contentious the view on where Democrats and Republicians stood then is.

But I stand by the Islam one perfectly- Religious fundamentalists fall squarely into conservatism and would likely be a group that the OP would accept as extremist, despite the implication that only liberals are extreme.

It's just some 'I am free of sin!' bullshit.

A tweet from a republican news account that contains a quote that reads "I am Kamala Harris, my pronouns are she and her, and I am a woman sitting at a table wearing a blue suit" there is also a picture of Harris, under this tweet is a Readers added context that reads "This is a recording of a meeting with disability avocates, which included blind and low vision members. The meeting and recording were intended to be accessible to those with sight and hearing impairments" someone with the user name Gillian Branstette replies to the previous tweet with "An entire generation of Republician political operatives have been raised to believe the greatest moral sin is any basic display of human decency"

[astrokid425]

just a reminder! republicians are HISTORICALLY BAD AT ECONOMICS...IM TALKING DURING JEFFERSON,,,YOU STUPID IDITOS

[themistressofdolls]

People should keep being reminded of this until november, I'm not a huge Biden fan or will defend everything that party does but if things swing towards the republicians it will probablly be the last election the US has before it transforms into something horrific l ike the Russian federation or Hungary under Viktor Orban.

Once you get an autocrat into power, its very hard to get them out once they know how to game the levers of power.

not my meme but you all do know about this right? It feels like it's getting buried right now and I feel like its proponents are trying to take advantage of that.
