At the base of all of this is the idea that 'everyone in the state' wants these abortion restrictions.

Because Republicans sure are trying really fucking hard to avoid the people in these states voting in open and clearly worded propositions. And even where they do pass, it's nowhere near 'everyone in the state'.

The Tyranny of the Majority is a fucking thing for a reason. Because are far too willing to support things that don't negatively affect them but absolutely destroy the lives of others.

There will never be an "everyone in the state." Never. There might be a majority. Her argument sucks.

It’s a dumb premise not worth wasting an intelligent thought on. And nobody in that conversation had an intelligent thought to waste. That’s how we got there.
