Abortion is Healthcare, Republican Abortion Laws are Fascist; and the coming Republican Religious Vice Squads

Republican Religious Vice Squad; Stand by...

A key component of Fascism is issuing vague, confusing, contradictory Laws and relying on good and well-meaning people to take on the burden of figuring out how to implement them.

Abortion laws are purposefully confusing for this very reason.  Republican abortion laws put the fear of prosecution into the minds of Doctors, Lawyers, and other people who don't run afoul of the law.  They use your tendency to want to follow rules to have you overzealously enforce laws on other people.  You unwittingly become a pawn in enforcing Fascism.

This is one of the most powerful tools in the Fascist's toolbox.  Republicans know this but, they also know they must provide their victims a face saving "out".  Like a firing squad being issued one blank round to , Republicans concoct these exception rules, usually the "Life of the Mother" but by making the laws difficult to interpret correctly they know the exceptions will be rarely used, and in many of these Republican dominated states it wouldn't matter anyway as some conservative panties sniffer can bring the Courts in to investigate the abortion anyway.

Women dying, people suffering, and society becoming coarser and coarser are not unfortunate by-products of Republican government, they are the desired and sought after outcome.

The mother of a Nebraska girl obtained abortion pills on-line to terminate her pregnancy and then buried the remains in April 2022.  Reading the news story somebody altered the police that a then 17 year old had given birth to a stillborn and concealed it.  The detectives then poured over hermetical records and social media accounts to discern she had self induced an abortion.  And once you are under investigation, Genital inspectors aren't going to simply not bring charges.  So she was charged with hiding remains and lying to the Cops.

(As an aside always remember Cops are not you're friends don't talk to them.)

Nebraska Right-to-Life group is celebrated the incarceration of a young girl for the her desperate actions as a minor.  And they seek to punish more people;

Nebraska Right to Life, an anti-abortion group, had commended prosecutors for enforcing Nebraska’s 20-week law.

Sandy Danek, the Executive Director, said in 2022 accountability should extend to providers that mail abortion pills to states like Nebraska that require an in-person physician to oversee medication abortions. “This disturbing act may become more commonplace as the abortion industry continues to promote the do-it-yourself abortion where there’s no medical oversight for risks and complications,” she said.

As if they care about medical complications.  Remember Republicans yearn to control you and have to provide a face-saving out to make it seem like their authoritarian impulses, to which you are willingly acceding, are actually for the good of the victim.

Mark Gordon, the Christofascist Governor of Wyoming, ushered in numerous bans on Abortion including allowing legislation to pass into law without his signature.  “I have acted without bias and after extensive prayer, to allow these bills to become law,” Mr. Gordon wrote in a letter to Wyoming’s secretary of state.  As always Wyoming's laws include the phony exceptions;

Wyoming's new abortion laws allow exceptions to save life and for cases of rape or incest that are reported to police. But abortion for other reasons isn't health care under the amendment, Jay Jerde, an attorney for the state, argued.

"It's not restoring a woman's body from pain, injury or physical sickness," Jerde said. "Medical services are involved, but getting an abortion for reasons other than health care, it can't be a medical decision."

Read what Special Assistant to the Attorney General Jay A. Jerde an economics graduate, said again.  Republicans have conferred upon themselves the absolute authority to police sexual conduct, healthcare, bodily autonomy, freedom of association, and basic sexual activity.  Even when it is demonstrated time and time again the Men writing and interpreting these laws have no knowledge and lack basic understanding.  It's part of the rightwing decades long campaign to destroy the concept of expertise and authority.  By constantly attacking knowledge, education, learning and the concept of expertise an idiot like Sean Hannity or any of these podcasting bums, like Tim Pool, Matt Walsh, Steven Crowder to claim they know more about any and all subjects than people who've studied them.  And then by extension any of these psycho rightwingers on social media can do their own research and proclaim that the Covid isn't deadly but the Vaccine is...

Republicans and Rightwingers are in the midst of a 50 year pushback on Roe v. Wade specifically as well as the 1960's, the New Deal, and the progressive gains of the 20th century and mold the United States in the image of a Sharply Divided Religious Ethno-State.  It's why they constantly harp on "The Left" trying to remake America; Every Accusation is a Confession (EAIAC) as the acronym goes...

The final goal for Republicans is clear; their religious edicts are ensconced into Secular Law, and the United States is transformed into a Christofascist Nation-State, run by fear and ignorance.  And Policed by the legions of Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, and Andrew Tate fans who yearn to act as a Religious Vice Squad. 

ETA:

I tell you these things and normies tell me 'No way! You're making things up!' and then this gets reported on:

An all-male panel of anti-abortion religious leaders from around the country met Friday night to discuss the strategies that should be used to end abortion in every state at any stage of pregnancy, without exceptions for rape and incest, and with criminal punishment for the pregnant person in line with existing criminal penalties for murder, which includes the death penalty.

The Republican Party hates you.  Republicans hate America.  And Republicans are working right... damn... now... to destroy the county and replace it with a Taliban/Nazi style country.
