AnotherAttorney,

the narrator states that life begins at fertilization; that "Olivia's" heartbeat can be detected 22 days after fertilization; and that brain activity can be recorded at 6 weeks.

When life begins is pretty subjective, but neither of the following statements are inaccurate. The heart starts beating between 21 and 23 days after conception, and some studies have suggested it can start even as early as 16 days after. Brain activity has been recorded after 43 days (6.1 weeks) of gestation.

Abortion simps mad.

Bipta,

Link the well designed studies and I'll take back my downvote.

OFC my state is on this list. :sigh:

I’m trying, folks. I’m fucking trying.

We’re not all evangelistic rubes who keep voting these crazies in, but voter apathy is a huge problem here. I did get a few people to vote last year time, but it’s not nearly enough.

LallyLuckFarm,

Overcoming someone’s apathy towards voting is a huge success, don’t let yourself get down about how many you convinced.

Thanks. I definitely see getting even one more person out to vote as a win, for sure. The big punch in the gut, though, was that the Democratic delegate for my county switched parties after being elected and is on board with this.

Trying to stay motivated is about all I can do. 🥴

Froyn,

I wish there were some (fraud) penalty for blatant misrepresentation in order to gain election.

Indeed. At the very least, it should trigger a special election, and they should have to get elected as the party they’re switching to. I don’t know if some states do that, but mine definitely doesn’t.

I feel you. Whenever I mentioned where I'm from it's always either "Oh, y'all so crazy and stupid 🤪" or "If you don't like it, just move🙄". Like how narrow minded and naive can you be? It's almost as if others like to downplay and ignore the work you put in to fighting for basic human rights.

Thanks. Yep, that’s how it is alright.

I’ve thought about and half-planned to move, but with my house, good job, and family here, it’s a tough thing to do. I’ve since settled on sticking it out and fighting to make things better like you said.

BakerBagel,

I love and miss Missouri so much. My family has lived there since it was a state, and St. Louis is the only place i have ever felt truly at home. But i dont see myself leaving Ohio to move back there anytime soon, and Ohio is a fucking mess of it’s own right now.

darkphotonstudio,

America is lost.

    They’re more concerned with extinguishing gay and trans people right now

    It certainly shows the effectiveness of having a poorly educated populace
