    These people don’t share your beliefs. They just told you they did. They told you so you would check a box by their name. They would gladly throw you off a cliff to save themselves or their exotic dancer affair partners.

      or their exotic dancer affair partners.

      I think they would throw any one particular affair partner over that same cliff to save themselves and their ability to chase new affair partners, but otherwise you’re spot on

      Exactly this.

      Conservatives believe that they should get special rights simply because of who they are. This isn’t grounded in a shared moral system; conservative values are about elevating the “right” people to power and privilege.

      It’s why conservatives don’t care what the people who represent them do: they believe that their representative deserves to be there simply because they’ve signalled that they’re culturally conservative.

      It’s an ideology for losers, and I mean that literally. The “left” side of the political spectrum is about empowering those who never had much to lose, while the “right” side is about reclaiming lost privileges for those who feel entitled to the whole pie.

      The right isn’t really against abortion even if they pretend to be; they’re against it for the people who they want to control.

    Republicans lie. Their Presidents is Liar in Chief. He’s a convicted felon and an unregistered sex offender. Those are facts.

    I’m not saying this isn’t true, but the original source on this, a blog-masquerading-as-news called currentrevolt(dot com), is a straight dumpster fire of awful opinions and shitty takes. So, take this “reporting” with a heap of salt.

      The interview link to it in the article says it’s subscription only. Which is poor planning on their part, but it doesn’t seem too dumpster-firey on first glance. (Not that it isn’t)

    People have been making jokes about this exact scenario for decades… a conservative who hates abortions until his mistress needs one.

    They will probably have a euphemism for abortion going forward in some hospitals thay will cater to this type of clientele… because Trump has shown that there really are people above the law.

    Capriglione expressed a desire to ejaculate into cookie batter intended for a bake sale one of his daughters was participating in

    “His fantasy was that — when no one was looking — that he would produce ‘baby gravy’ to put into the cookie batter before they were baked, because it was a turn-on for him,” she said, claiming that he enjoyed the idea that “all of the girls in the neighborhood would be consuming” his ejaculate.

      Calling ejaculate “baby gravy” alone should be a fucking crime. These people are so gross.

      I’d like to think I’m pretty open minded to various kinks and desires people have but that was beyond anything I could ever imagine. Goodness gracious.

        When their kink is non-consensual, or otherwise with unwilling and unwitting participants, that’s when you know it’s not “just a kink” and they’re actually just a bad person.

        Edit: CNC is “consensual” if done legitimately, in case anyone thought this was kink-shaming. My take is, everybody over the age of consent should be free to do what they want with their own bodies, including consenting to things other people don’t like.

        Valid kinks require consent. This was forcing your sexual depravity upon non-consenting people, probably including children.

        This isn’t a kink, it’s abuse.

          The fact that this act is directed toward children is especially telling, and not the least bit surprising

        And it seems he also succeeded in fucking every woman in the state by removing their right to an abortion. I’m not sure it’s a campaign platform or if he is just a sadistic fuck who happened to find a party that endorses sadism.

      The shitty part is that he said it was a fantasy but it’s so specific that he probably already did it and just doesn’t want to directly admit to it

    That’s how it always is with these people. Going forward, anytime someone wants to remove rights they should be first investigated.

      I was going to suggest feeding them into a wood chipper but I suppose we can try your method first.

      The thing is: access to abortion is literally a family value. The right to reproductive freedom means that a person has a choice if they want to risk a dangerous pregnancy that could leave the family without a caretaker.
