Kindle Notes & Highlights
Being a giant fucking sucker is as American as school shootings.
In spite of the fact that only 23 percent of Americans want to see Roe v. Wade reversed and the anti-choice movement comprises a sliver of the US population, the word cloud of “abortion discourse in the last two decades” has been about 90 percent white evangelicals screaming the most incendiary, reductive, poisonous garbage imaginable in lockstep with one another. The brand is strong!
There is no debate because we do not live in a theocracy and one minority group does not get to implement legislation that impedes other people’s freedom, period. It is time to stop granting those people even one iota of our collective energy and instead begin flooding the world with our real, true, messy, complex, hard, good, bad abortion stories, because those stories are the things that actually happened to us and they are the things that people actually relate to, and that other shit is blatant horseshit to anyone who isn’t an evangelical Christian cultist.
