I won’t be surprised when inter-racial marriage and slavery are back on the docket.
They’re starting with trans, working their way to gay. Trans was their gateway item, it helped get them elected. (They tried gay marriage during campaigning, it didn’t stick, there was too much public support). Even so, now that they’re in, they’re going there.
This is all per Project 2025. They’re not going to touch slavery, but the items with a religious, Heritage mandate will be torn apart.
They’re going to hit hard when they get to women, not just an erosion of legal status but bodily autonomy. Ownership, by men, in terms of loss of legal status in re to pregnancy. Remember, MAGA ran on a reaction to women’s lib.
They’ve already declared decreased fertility, the current 1.6 replacement rate, a matter of national security.
They’re just grabbing more power (and money) and beating the public down into a more complacent state before kicking 51% of the population in the head.
P25 dismantles HIPAA and ends death with dignity at the national level as well. The religious mandates are pretty awful. I do not have much hope that gay marriage will survive the Supreme Court.
I consider "maga" to be mostly a nonsense word to give cover to the fact that the Republican Party is full of Republicans. They've hated women's lib for wayyyy longer than they started using that nonsense baby-talk word. I don't think there should be any distinction drawn between the teabaggers that rebranded themselves as "maga" and the Republican Party.
They are essentially the same thing, and have always stood for this kind of stuff, no matter the window dressing they used to put on it before. Their code words like "family values" were not fooling anyone...
“Who am I to stop an enterprising young person from willingly entering into a contract of indentured servitude?”
Slavery never ended though. Hell, I'm pretty sure it's not even illegal
The 13th Amendment, ratified in 1865, says: “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”
It's not. It's in Alabama prison systems.
Slavery never went away. It's alive and well in the Alabama prison system. They are building more prisons there, too. That way, all the blacks pushed into poverty after no affirmative action can be exploited accordingly.
This world is so bad.
