Really? Seriously?
HALF the population losing body autonomy is a minor issue?
The utter gall to write that.
Ridiculous.
The consequences of the Dobbs decision come across my Twitter feed everyday. And, those consequences aren’t all directly concerning abortion. And, we have a MSM that refuses to cover the ripple effect consequences and who is responsible for them.
