Literally the Republican Way™©®

It disgusts me to no end. "It's wrong and should be punished until it happens to me!"

Privileged people do get an exception - they can afford to fly to another state for an abortion.

People like this think they're part of the in group because they're white or christian, but the only war is class war. To our rulers we're all the enemy.

My fucking Trumpy brother in law has this attitude. He lives in the south, votes for Trump, and has a wife, two daughters, and a son. His wife has had a couple of complicated pregnancies that, had they happened now in the place they currently live, could well have resulted in her death. His attitude when asked 'what if one of your daughters gets raped?' is to say he can just fly her somewhere else to get an abortion, because he has money. Fuck you, dude.

These are people who don't want rights, they want privileges. They don't want equality, they want hierarchy. They can't say "gimme gimme", they say "take America back".

From who? Americans. They want to take what you have. Now that Republicans control the Federal Government they will start to take from each other.

This literally happened during the first Trump administration. Does no Trump supporter remember how they all fought for attention and sucked so badly?

Two legs good, four legs bad.

Edit: actually think I got that backwards.

Four legs good, two legs bad. And if I remember correctly, there was an amendment for ducks/chickens/etc to be good. Haven't read that book in like 35 years.

I remember the hilarious part where they all campaigned for years on "repealing Obamacare". Then they had House and Senate majorities + the Presidency, and guess what didn't get repealed?

It was like that silly video where a dog is barking viciously at another dog, looks super serious and mean, and then the barrier between them is removed and they both act real cool immediately. Then, barrier back in, vicious barking again...

2016 - It will be so easy, it's the worst law in history. We're going to repeal and replace it in the first week.

2024 - I have concepts of a plan.

How fucking dumb is half the country... At least that fucking dumb.

Many states put a bounty on anyone found to be helping someone travel out of state to get an abortion.

States specifically target liberal groups for harassment and penalty. Conservative physicians will be ignored.

The point of these witch hunts is to torment opposition groups.

I love that they referred her to an anti-abortion crisis center, because there's a 99% chance they'll just tell her the same "pro-life" garbage she's been spewing and send her ass home.

Remember, God makes no mistakes 🤗

I really do hate myself for a lack of sympathy in this situation, but these people need to experience what they’re doing to everyone else.

What’s sad is that people who agree with her won’t see the threat to her life as a valid reason either. They don’t know her so they don’t care for her. They’ll lump her in with the people they torment outside of Planned Parenthood regularly.

Just another woman who spread her legs and is too cowardly to accept the will of god.

I’ll be honest, I’m burned out. I need a break from morons and their stories. I really do.

I have accepted that two things can be trust at once: I can be sad for her and amused at the leopard eating her face. I have no problem containing both of those emotions at the same time without hating myself one ounce.

She is the leopard eating her face. I see no reason to be sad. She is dying for her beliefs, a martyr.

It wasn't part of her plan but (her) God chose her for this. We should she be happy. She should be happy. This is (her) God's will.

I've given up on being sympathetic for people who actively try to put these things in place. Like, I'm just jaded now. You voted for this. Congratulations, if this is fatal for your stupid decisions, that's on you. I'm sympathetic to the people with brains who knew this would happen, those people get my sympathy and caring.

I felt similar about people asking for the vaccine right before they went on the ventilator. Something like 3m people in the US died from Covid.

Reminds me of brexit. You were warned, lady. You just chose not to listen because you didn’t think it would have a negative impact on you.

"First they came for..." you fucking ghouls.

You signed a death warrant for us all and for our children's supposed future, and your ignorance and cowardice was the ink.

People who voted for the Leopard Eating People’s Faces party suddenly shocked when the leopard eats their face.

And sadly, most won’t learn that lesson.

So she got what she voted for? I don't see an issue

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Oh my god the end of that article is brutal... Yes, leopards eating faces and all, but holy shit that response was heartless

[–] [email protected] 56 points 1 month ago

Being heartless is a basic requirement for being Republican.

"Farmer" and "White". Name a more American duo

"then connected Farmer with an anti-abortion crisis pregnancy center in the state"

I can imagine how that conversation went: "I know its risking not only your reproductive organs, but also your life. However, have you considered carrying the child to term so she can die in your arms shortly afterward so you can 'pwn the libs'? Think about their tears!"

Schadenfreude!

ETA: I’ll take the downvotes on this one. Shower your disapproval. Fuck this lady and her leopard eaten face.

The most fucked up thing about most Leopards Ate My Face types is that the leopard always eats someone else’s face first. This smug turd-lady voted for years to punish everyone she didn’t like. I feel sorry for what a hateful human she is

When was this? A lot of these posts from the last decade are resurfacing now (for obvious reasons)

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago (7 children)

Looks like Oct. 18, 2022 according to the source article listed elsewhere in the comments.

I am rapidly running out of sympathy for such people. I still have some, but I am rapidly running out.

Aww man Im all out of fucks

This may get downdooted to oblivion, but I think some of this is human nature. It is abhorrent, and something we need to strive to fix, but it is rather natural for people to think that their own situation is typical -- because for them, it is. Every exemplar that a privileged person will have is also a privileged exemplar -- until, of course, something like this happens.

And as a further consequence, it is extremely difficult to convince someone that their personal situation is not the norm. Everyone wants to be the main character and ultimately believes that they are.

Not sure what the solution is.
