    You laugh, but I just saw a dumbass on fucking Tiktok claiming that the companies in red states that are sending their workers to states that want an abortion, that they are using fetal cells in their products. The companies she is talking about? For example, Disney, McDonalds, Walmart, and even the military, since they are doing something similar. She was batshit insane.
    If they put it in the deals on the app, I'd take 2 free large fries with a 20 piece Fetus McNugget pack. Just to try it.

    What is sad, is that the people in her comments section were absolutely all agreeing with her. Even in spite of the evidence produced that she was fucking stupid.

    WV's Republican governor, realizing that leaving decisions on abortion legalization to the voters would likely not deliver the results he and his party wants, argue that instead that decisions are the purview of the Legislature alone.

    Republicans really hate democracy when they realize they have incredibly unpopular platform positions and that voters won't vote how they want them to.

    You think so? I'm more inclined to believe that next time something like this comes up for vote, he's just going to do what Gawd (and his party) tells him anyway. Consequences be damned.

That way, if they don't, I can be pleasantly surprised. The right in this country lost the benefit of the doubt on these issues ages ago...if they ever had it in the first place.
    Legislate any neglect and abuse under whatever terms you want. It's still no excuse to rob parents of their ability to parent their children while being informed of their struggles. The opposite is, of course, magnifying abuse and regret of another kind.

    This is the same logic used to defend outing children and teens to homophobic parents resulting in them getting kicked out of their house and ending up homeless, FYI.

    When what conservatives call "parenting" is abuse, then yes, that's a perfectly fine excuse to "rob" them of that ability. That last sentence you wrote is meaningless.

    It seems you are fine with parents who rape and beat children to keep their rights, the concept that some people shouldn't have those rights doesn't seem to enter your mind.

    Interesting fact, the Texas GOP platform included abolishing CPS.
    Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
    "mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
    to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.

    Sorta

    https://texasgop.org/wp-content/uplo...T-Platform.pdf

    Pg. 27

    It's very, very, very vague in the platform, but they call for reforming/replacing it. But it's all very dog whistle language, which is surprising given that the rest of the platform is fairly explicit. Since, you know, they were trying to send CPS after the parents of trans kids simply for the kids being trans.

    Oops, my bad. Guess I was getting mixed up with the Department of Education. My mistake.

    That's because you don't seem the get the context in which this is being argued.

    Kristi Bradford has endometriosis, a painful chronic condition where tissue that normally grows inside the uterus grows on other parts of the reproductive organs. She just walked away from a $300,000 job based in Oklahoma out of concern for her health.

    I walked away from a $300K salary, because Roe was overturned

    I don't think you'll win any arguments presuming all parents to be uncompassionate and deputizing government employees to kick them out of the loop of important life and health decisions.

    The state robbing parents of good information to help parent their children is a very chilling opinion. You might as well raise a big sign saying, "I think your parenting is abuse, therefore the state should make your parenting decisions for you, and without informing you." I can't force you to acknowledge all the ill effects of turning teenage distrust of authority into cutting parents out of informed parenting of their children.

    I am very disturbed that reporting abuse has turned to presuming abuse, and reacting to the presumption. What do people suppose will happen when the default becomes hiding abortions and changes in sexuality or gender identity from those closest concerned with their children's welfare? How is this debate supposed to proceed when parental notification and parental responsibility is conflated with rape and the beating of children?

    NED, these are actual questions, because I don't see these opinions confined to these internet hinterlands.
