Tin snips?

Yeah, metal shears with a nice long handle to make cutting through hardened objects more easily.

And wouldn’t you know it but turpentine is an antiseptic and pain reliever…

I still don’t get it. My metal shears don’t open enough for anything but sheet metal, and they’re definitely not suitable for anything hardened. I get the feeling that the reference is about using them on people, but I don’t understand how.

You ever heard of the snip? Because that’s what I think they’re hinting at.

The comic is about women’s reproductive rights and how righties want to take that away from them. The woman is suggesting the same be done to men, using the tools she mentions, with turpentine being the disinfectant.
