And apparently, the GOP voters love the destruction of our nation. They are here for it. They turnout and vote for it.

This blog, now in its 17th year, is run by a member of the Guardian-reading, tofu-eating wokerati. And in this post, I am repeating what I have said before: that the GOP is burning down our republic and our society. It threatens to sink the entire North American continent as Mexico is already a failed state, overrun by instability and out of control violence. But I am going to approach my argument from a different lens - through history.

First up, we have three US states that have authorized the construction of memorials dedicated to the fetuses that were aborted between 1973 and 2022. The states are Tennessee, Missouri and now Arkansas.

Liberals in the US need to think of these memorials this way: Monuments to fetuses are not about the fetuses. They are memorials that celebrate the taking of liberties away from women. They enshrine dominance over women and their bodies. It’s as if a state had left the Union during the Civil War, kept slavery to this day, and decided to erect a monument to slavery.

What liberals should do is ask themselves this: do you want to live in a country in which women have no liberties in over 20 states? Or 30? Do you want to live in a nation where local governments gloat about taking those freedoms away? What would we call such a nation? I know what I would call it: a failed, autocratic state. Arkansas needs to be removed from the union, or we need to fight like hell to have freedoms restored. But sitting there and doing nothing is NOT an option.

But what just entered my mind reading these stories about the post-Dobbs power grab is that so-called liberals need to fight simply because many many people died winning civil rights over the centuries. And no, I don't mean we won rights fighting wars. Wars can only block the advance of tyranny, not expand freedoms. People died on US soil for these rights. And since the rise of Trump, rights and liberties are being taken away. Reproductive rights. Bodily autonomy. Free speech. The right to bloody live. We liberals are told not to fight - not to stoop to the GOP's level. "We go high" said Michelle Obama, which is a euphemism for "don't get into a street fight." Well if we can't get into a street fight when freedoms are being rolled back, then we can never fight to get them back. And there's no need to bring up Nazi analogies! Freedoms are just being taken away. It happens all over the world and now it is happening here. If we don't fight, we won't live long enough to see those freedoms restored. Simple as that. And by fight, I mean march through the state capitals of red states. Otherwise, we should tell these red states to leave the Union. We can't exist as a nation if women and queer people have rights in one state but are prosecuted in another. Fuck this.

We’re never going to see these rights return to us in our lifetimes. So we might as fight to make lives miserable for the people who took away our liberties. This is no longer a civil debate on what rights people should have is the USA. This is a war.

Frankly, people need to die for taking our rights away. Taking liberties from me and you justifies it. And if you are a registered Democrat and don’t feel the rage I do, then join the GOP, please. Get out my party. You suck, you spineless shits.
