wtf, Texas

Is even this politicized?

It may never be known exactly how many Texas women have died as a result of the state’s abortion restrictions … And the state is not trying to find out. The Texas Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Review Committee, the body responsible for investigating maternal deaths, has announced it is not investigating cases from 2022 and 2023, including the immediate aftermath of the state’s almost-total abortion ban.

    Fair point on the word mistake.

    But the rest of my point stands. No matter who you vote for you are supporting something evil. And you are saying that not voting is supporting something evil. So a person is just evil for existing. That makes all citizen who are allowed to vote evil. And if that is what you saying, then who cares. Everyone is evil no matter what they do.

      It’s --almost like-- we live in a world that not black & white and people have to make the best choices they can under the circumstances

        Exactly. And if in thier opinion, not voting, or 3rd party voting is the best choice, we shouldn’t claim they supported someone who clearly goes against thier beliefs simply because the system was setup to give them no good choices.

      This is beyond stupid. The Drumpf era has taught me to loathe “both siders” and fence sitters. This current evil is definitely on THEM !!! There are degrees of evil. Support the least evil in elections, and agitate for better candidates between elections. Just ignoring it all and not voting, makes you complicit with any bad outcome, no matter what mental gymnastics you can perform.
