(lemmy.world)
Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:

No misinformation
Donβt post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes

OMG.. is Ann Coulter accidentally being sorta based ???
She wants it for eugenics reasons.
i mean that assumes that Republicans are an ethnicity. any Democrat concerned about "race suicide" can just become a Republican. (of course this is actually dumb)
i read that article, and the only concern in legalized abortion was the possibility of forced sterilization programs, and this is an incredibly unlikely event for the U.S. in this current time, as it would assume that certain ethnicities are not free to choose their party.
even if that was eventually the plan, that kind of insanity would call for a pretty obviously needed revolution, even among many Republicans who have non-ethnic principles.
what she said isn't actually a good idea of course.. but the point of the meme is that she is more or less saying the exact same thing as "people who choose to want abortions should be allowed to get abortions!" since being a Democrat or Republican is a choice. this is literally pro-choice in a cloak. lol
i'm Canadian though so i have no fkin idea who Ann Coulter is (i thought this suggestion was a joke actually), but if she's Republican, then this goes against the common Republican pro-life narrative, because she's offering abortion as a choice to anyone at all, then this is effectively the pro-choice position.
Not Republicans, white people.
Based on what
If by based you mean smashing 45% of the country into single issue voters and then using that to strip bodily autonomy based on party association... sure?
I mean if you wanted access to abortion you wouldn't vote republican, right? They're openly anti-women, people of colour, LGBTQ+ people, etc. so if you fall into any of those categories, voting republican is an odd form of self-destruction.
Again you're just generalizing. 40% of GOP voters support abortions in most cases. I'm also quite tired of the baseless they are racist comments. It is a progressive dog whistle.
Ugh, you don't get it, do you? Their personal beliefs don't matter if they support a party that works against them. It just goes to show that they don't hold as strongly to the belief that women should have control over their own bodies, as they do to whatever is making them vote republican.
In the grand scheme of things, words aren't worth anything, actions are. Stating your support for "abortions in most cases" is just words, voting for a party that will outlaw it is an action.
The best way to avoid being labelled racist is to stop being racist. Here, again, actions speak louder than words. Doesn't matter if you scream out at the top of your lungs that you love minorities and have black friends, if you then start marching with the KKK and the proud boys.
Again you are acting like we don't live in a fptp voting system and just generalizing the entire base. It's a terrible and inaccurate way to view the political spectrum. Those people mostly aren't comically evil as most of you would believe.
No, I don't think that other poster does believe they're comically evil, but it's fair to say that they're ok with outlawing abortion if they vote for someone who runs on outlawing abortion.
No it's not fair. 40% of them support most right to choice law.
So not all GOP supporters are nazis, but all nazis are GOP supporters. Stay mad, racist.
I doubt the actual Nazis are happy with the current GOP. You've invented such a wonderful persona of me in your head lol. Such imagination.
Do you see the issue we're having here?
Not at all. I still have no idea where you've invented this information about me.
I called you a racist and you described that as a "wonderful persona". Is this too difficult?
Don't threaten me with a good time. If that's what they, or you desire is to enforce unwanted theocracy upon the meager 55% of us (citations needed, social programs are overwhelming popular amongst voters, sorry bud) than I don't give a flying fuck about your bad faith opinions

Sometimes people deserve to get exactly what they want.
Right just group everyone up into a singular blob, dehumanize them, and punish them!
Republicans want to ban it for everyone, even people who don't agree. I don't see how this is dehumanizing to ask only them to adhere to their beliefs.
Don't you want to get what you want?
