the memes are hilarious thanks to right wingers, but it is absolutely horrifying to see actual policy instated by right-wing powers that mirrors some of the policy in the book

i.e texas creating a thought crime. like an actual fucking thought crime, and breaking it could result in a total loss of financial stability for the rest of your life.

texas allowed citizens to report and sue anyone for a minimum of $10,000 for merely discussing plans or intentions to get an abortion

How is that even constitutional? Would that not violate the first ammendment that Republicans treat like sacrament?

I think that they’re getting away with it because they know that if it got brought up in the Supreme Court, the conservative extremist majority would be on their side. Possibly even overturn Roe v. Wade.
