This country hates women

If you thought we have gone just about as far Right as we can on womens rights, think again:
Since 2017, state lawmakers have considered abortion abolition bills in at least 21 states. Often called “prenatal equal protection” acts, most were introduced after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022 and opened the door to this type of legislation, which had previously run counter to SCOTUS precedent on abortion.
Even in states with severe restrictions on abortion access and criminal penalties for abortion providers, those who actually obtain an abortion are not subject to prosecution themselves. However, under abortion abolition laws, they would be.
The US is already a far Right outlier on womens rights among democracies- and it ain’t over yet. There’s a huge group of conservatives who will absolutely take us back to 1860. Hell, we can’t even get so-called liberals to oppose Andrew Cuomo, a serial sexual harasser and absolute pig.
