Just had to ruin a good joke with political whining.

A woman literally died the other day because they wouldn’t give her the correct procedure during a miscarriage for fear of legal repercussions.

How would you feel if that was your mum or sister or friend?

This shit matters dude.

“Political whining”

So if the government fucks you over you should just shut up and take it, and not even talk about it on a platform made for talking about stuff?

Sounds like she is making a fair point about the lack of women’s right in certain places, and your disagreement is the political whining

Women are dying to this bullshit and your biggest concern is getting a laugh?

I’m guessing you don’t have a vagina to be concerned about?

It’s not even accurate, that’s what gets me. It’s just propaganda.

We have gynecologists. You just can’t kill unborn children. Gynecologists do a lot more than just abortions. Hell, only 14% of them performed abortions back in 2011, well before Roe vs Wade.

(I sigh to myself, knowing that nothing I am about to write is going to get through, nonetheless…)

The joke is referencing the women who are presently dying to sepsis and other pregnancy related maladies in Texas, a red state.

When doctors are questioned about why they allowed it to happen, they cite the laws which impose $100,000 fines and 99 years in prison as reason for their inaction.

So yes, in theory you have doctors who service women, but in practice they are required by law to risk life in prison to do their job.

The obvious effect of this is a skill-drain where qualified members of that profession stop practicing in Texas and newly trained doctors practice elsewhere. This trend will become more visible as time goes on and more data is collected, not that data matters to this commenter…

So yes, you are correct that they can no longer kill unborn children, however if those unborn children grow up to be a woman it is perfectly legal to allow them to die while observing.

With the above information, even a below-averaged intelligence person could piece together the context you seem to be lacking, so I suppose that gives us some insight into your intelligence. (Just kidding, I’m just shitting on you because you are a callous non-empathetic asshole).

Your take is so dumb that I assume ChatGPT gave it to you and you re-posted it thinking to yourself, “Yeah, I showed those people!”, while not understanding anything you shared, the new age moron.

We have gynecologists.

Not for long. They’re leaving in droves because they’re under threat of persecution for providing life saving medical attention.

Accuracy: the most important part of humor! It’s so crucial to comedy that I have never, not in a million years, seen someone exaggerate for humorous effect. It’s simply not done in civil society: so I thank you for the bravery you’ve shown by shining light on this horrid case of inaccurate humor.
