Yes a red state.
You guys don’t get it. Plenty of women don’t have a clue what their rights were, what they are now, and what they will become.
and there is an entire “conservative” media ecosystem keeping them in the dark.
And I’ve tried to explain it to her, but she just doesn’t get it.


Ridiculous. Try harder. Trump put 3 justices on the supreme Court that he knew would overturn roe. They did it and now you lost your protected right to make reproductive decisions for yourself. That is easy to understand and not doing so is willful ignorance.

The IVF thing will not just stay in Alabama. The GOP uses these instances to project out national policy.

Of course! They’re going to make controlling women the centerpiece of any GOP administration. That and uplifting Russia.

What fertility expert or embryologists is going to want to risk operating in a red state? There are so many infertility cases.. these pros can go operate in a blue state and not have the risks of a place like Alabama

Something like 40 percent of infertility is caused by a male factor so understand that boys. You are also out of luck in Alabama. So sorry

NP, I get it that she lives in a rightwing bubble eco system but at some point she is responsible for her ignorance. I’m assuming that you have kindly explained that her embryo could be at risk due to law republicans are passing. Show her the Alabama ruling and say, this isn’t your state but it could be. Then let her make her choices. We can’t help those who are willingly ignorant. Give her facts with love then step aside.

.."if you vote for trump then he will not protect your right to have IVF and you will not have IVF in your state"

This is an easy concept. I think the voters are capable of understanding it.

I’ve literally used those exact words.
She and her husband are like….”nah. We are good people and it’s not about us. Also: taxes”
I know it’s insane and enraging. I understand. I’m only typing it here so you all can understand. There are people that won’t get it until something happens to them personally. They won’t even get it, if it happens to friend or family member.
There are people who do IVF and still don’t really understand reproduction and the science involved. It’s maddening.

Yikes. That has to be sickening to sit through. Way to advertise a person votes to punish others.

They want trump to be president. That is more important to them than having fertility treatments available to infertile people. It's not ignorant. It's a poor choice.

And they will probably raise that IVF baby to vote for the party that does not even want he or she to exist. Irony.

So when she is brought up for murder for disposing of any of the unused fertilized eggs, then what?

Most republican and MAGA women are in complete denial, because they don't think any GOP policy actually applies to them.

Unfortunately I have several friend slike this and apparently their plan is to fool around and find out. I don't think it will change until they, or their daughters and granddaughters die or lose their fertility or just opt out of ever having any children at all because the risk is too great.

Deep breath PP. You can't control what other people say or do. You have said your peace. She won't change, ever.

What you can do is work to get persuadable or checked-out voters to understand the consequences and get them to cancel her vote.

There is hope. There's currently a woman running in a Special election for Alabama house. She is a pro-choice Christian woman running to push back on Alabama's no-acceptions abortion ban. I've spoken with members of her church. Not all "good, southern Christians" are anti-abortion. We need to support these candidates and forget ppl like your SIL.

Consider contributing to her campaign. Polls have her ahead! A Democrat winning in deep red Alabama provides a permission structure for others to follow.

The right wing (and perhaps their Russian propaganda colleagues) will be out in force posting these next few months to try and drive public opinion. Don’t let them fool you. If we vote, the GOP loses it all. But only if we get out there and vote.

I would argue that the vast majority of traditional Christians are like this. It is just the radicalized Evangelicals that are akin to the radical Muslims like The Taliban, that are the issue.
