There is zero chance Varvel considered that for even a second. There’s one person in the cartoon and the woman ain’t it.

Do you ever feel like if they suddenly repealed the 13th amendment, all the Conservative cartoonists would have a bunch of pro-slavery cartoons ready to print the next day? I don't think the Overton window is real, guys. Anything can be instantly normalized if they want it to be.

For gently caress’s sake, if they intend to have a baby, then they can call it a baby. Just like you can look at someone preparing batter and say “That cake is coming along nicely” but it’s still not a cake yet and if I served you a bowl of batter with candles in it you’d probably be less than pleased.

Given how they've turned "don't call trans men women" into "you can't say woman anymore" as a mainstream thing people believe, I bet this will also get traction and turn into "pro choice people are going to take your babies away."

You'd be surprised* how open they can be about opposing sexual autonomy. I've only been on "hate mail opening " duty for work a few times, but it was amazing how much "don't have sex if you aren't willing to raise a kid" stuff was in there were along with everything calling us murderers and describing our futures in the Inferno. I laugh when I see those "is this about protecting women/the unborn or is it about punishing people for having sex" charts because they'll outright tell you it's the latter. It's the same reason they can be opposed to abortion while also opposing contraception, despite the obvious contradiction. It's always been about controlling people. *not actually surprised

This is true for literally every other regressive position. They can't acknowledge that they want to take away people's rights to do things that don't hurt anyone else, because they know that's a bad look in modern society, so they frame it as their opposition wanting to force everyone to do that thing. They're going to force everyone to get an abortion. They're going to force everyone to be gay. They're going to force everyone to be trans.

One thing right wingers love to concern troll about is "Democrats are the real racists trying to genocide minorities through abortion." They'll talk about Margaret Sanger created Planned Parenthood purposely for eugenics. They think that Dems force minority women to have abortions against their will and won't someone save those poor minority women from having the babies they definitely want to have killed?

They want to punish women for having sex. Even now, the “protect our babies” assholes on twitter are talking about abstinence and condoms. It’s never been about protecting babies. If they thought abortion was murder, they’d be rioting in the streets. I mean, if there was mass murder happening every day at a building in your town, would you just go there and hold up a sign and maybe say mean things to the murderers?

A generation who kept getting called out "hey, if abortion is murder, why would there be an exception for incest and rape? Why are you just voting for Republicans rather than reacting the way you would to a genuine genocide?" didn't re-evaluate their ostensible stance on abortion, but rather raised a generation of true believers - abortion doctor murders who make no exception for rape, incest, or . Maybe go with something else.

Xander77 posted:Unveiling Republican hypocrisy has been a pointless "gotcha" for decades now, but this in particular has helped has caused the exact opposite of the... intended?... reaction. Noting the contradiction was potentially valuable for the proportion of the public who had never thought about it before. Many people don’t care and power certainly doesn’t, but for people who just accept it as common sense that those exceptions should be made, there’s a core of human compassion there that is worth trying to reach. Or that was in the now-gone end-of-history liberal order. Everyone’s been radicalized three times over by now.

"Don't point out Republican hypocrisy; it will only make their opinions worse," is surrendering the narrative. They're gonna find a way to self-radicalize no matter what you do, and there is no clever argument to be made that will sway them. It is their opponents who believe in words. Anyone who is capable of listening to reason is pro-choice or living under a rock, in part because Republicans have long since stopped pretending they care about anything other than controlling minorities and lining their own pockets. Why should anyone else have to keep up the pretense? This is only happening because the system is broken and establishment democrats don't care enough to pick a fight over it.

Yeah that "article" is what was up on the site. They do one every week or so. They just put together a bunch of older cartoons, which are usually published with a title only, to make a point. I've posted the ones where we haven't seen the majority of the comics, since the text is, as you pointed out, incredibly on the nose, and of very little interest.

Leaving aside the actual terrorism, but that happened in Nazi Germany as well as USA.
