On Tuesday, pro-choice activists hosted more than 500 #StopTheBans rallies, with thousands of attendees across the country, in protest of the recent influx of abortion bans in states like Alabama, Georgia, and Missouri, among others. In recent weeks, these laws have stoked passionate reaction, as they threaten health care providers and women who have abortions with prison time, and are even dangerous for survivors of rape and those who experience miscarriage, too.

Unfortunately, Alabama and Georgia are hardly aberrations. In the first months of 2019 alone, dozens of anti-abortion bills have been introduced, passed, and signed into law in states across the country. As a result, politicians from Elizabeth Warren to Cory Booker have called for electing more women as a potential solution to the escalating, state-level war on reproductive rights.

But, as some activists have already pointed out, unilaterally electing women might not be the way to go, if were not exclusively electing women who support reproductive rights. Alabamas total abortion ban was introduced by a female, Republican lawmaker, and signed into law by Gov. Kay Ivey, also a woman. The same week Ivey signed the bill, the U.S. Senate confirmed Wendy Vitter, Donald Trumps nominee for a federal judgeship in Louisiana and a vocal abortion rights opponent, with a history of spreading the lie that abortion can
cause cancer.

From abortion restrictions to electing a white supremacist for president, to Roy Moore, white women have been nearly in lockstep with white men at the ballot box so why is the face of oppression and bigotry often a tucker carlson?

I've marked this topic and am eagerly awaiting the moderation

I'm sure most of the "same thing, both sides" club marked it as well. It's why I literally can't discuss the motivations of Trump voters. Daddy Error and crew have solidified the safe space for yall after enough tears were shed

What if you vote like an Asian woman, or Hispanic woman, arab woman or native American woman?

Not one sentence of that article suggests that white people are the problem.

Sick and tired of people claiming men are somehow the enemy in the abortion debate, and now we've got TC doing his usual schtick adding white people to the list.

Man it's hard to get my thoughts across with this flaming rule.

It's sad nobody wants to engage TC in debate.
