This is such a misleading headline. The girl was 28 weeks pregnant. No state had legal abortion at 28 weeks unless there was at threat to the mother’s life. They buried the fetus in their yard. This investigation began before roe vs Wade was invalidated.

But yeah, the headline as written plays really well with audiences with a certain narrative.

Fuck Facebook. Don’t use it. Delete your account.

Edit: I misremembered. She was 23 weeks not 28. My bad. Better take: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/08/teens-jailing-shows-exactly-how-facebook-will-help-anti-abortion-states/

I think each country has to decide for themselves what they’re going to do about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Especially those countries who have been on the receiving end of US unilateralism as described in the article.

Despite all the past offenses of the US and the west, in this instance I think the west is acting as a force for good. Ukraine was invaded by Russia under false pretenses of “denazification” . The Ukrainians are asking for help to resist an invader. We should help them.
