Is everyone just stunned that we’ve stepped back 50 years in time?

Or is there just apathy? I cant tell.

Between abortion and the three recent Supreme Court cases siding with organized religion, it seems like we are just heading back to a time of superstition.

I mean really what the fk just happened? What is this?

I am shellshocked with you

But I DID see it coming. I told people what would happen.

Idiots voted for these fools anyway

I'm kinda stunned about how dumb the Supreme Court is being right now. It's like these new guys are just 1Ls, or just pre-law. They are clueless.

I'm not stunned at all. Our local school systems added religious holidays to the school calendar so appears most of society wants to let separation of church and state fall aside. It's just the Evangelicals and Catholics have all the religious power. Progressives need to consider consequences of their woke proposals.

They really played the long game. They won.

I mean even with young folks leaving the pews in droves, and gender equality and equal rights being so popular, they captured the court and have stymied any kind of social progress. It’s brilliant. Mitch McConnell is truly a genius.

Pretty soon pollution controls will be shut down with wv. Vs epa, more cities will be less safe because of laxer gun laws as a result of that court case, and essentially western liberalism, as we’ve come to know it, will take a back seat to this more regressive time. All a result of politically maneuvering and getting a few zealots on the court! It’s brilliant. They’re out of power, yet still can effectively control society with the court. Pretty soon they’ll be in power again, because repubs are so much better at messaging, and who knows what other rights they’ll change.

Ha! It really is like a dystopian Netflix show. People in other civilized countries are watching aghast as we turn into the equivalent of a snake handling backwoods town.

Which Evangelical and Catholic holidays did your school system add to the calendar?

You’re a Republican. Do you think people can’t evaluate the despair you sow when you tip your hand?

Obviously everyone is not stunned.

But I'm stunned that some liberals are still shocked that the majority doesn't always agree with everything they stand for. I'm shocked that some liberals think religious people shouldn't vote in accordance with their own values but liberals should be free to vote in accordance with theirs. I'm shocked that whenever a political party doesn't get it's way there's talk of receding and revolution. I'm shocked that so many people fall for Russian propoganda designed to separate us so we will more easily fall. But mostly I'm shocked at how so many people live in their own political bubble that they fool themselves into thinking "everyone" thinks the same as they do when in reality it's just the 10-20 people they hang around.

Every action has a reaction. You just wait and see....

Right, now the abortion politics and options get played out at the state level. Maybe some states will see they need to vote back in some abortion protections.
IsnT something like 80% of the 500-600k annual abortions in those blue states anyhow? And before week 10?

In Montgomery County, we recognize many religious holidays including Ram Navani, Eid ul-Fitr, Kwanzaa, Yaldaa, and Mehergan. It's no big deal.

I’m not shocked at all. But it’s fundamentally anti American to believe that you should impose Christianity on us. It’s literally Amendment numero uno.
