Right, as if the rest of the world is hoarding formula..instead of mere reality...where even if the rest of the world has formula (which it does) the reason that we're out has nothing to do with the fact that american formula is only saleable in the us..having been outlawed literally everywhere else.........
-and every bit of it, primarily manufactured more than a decade ago, with nothing made in between.
@Reverend Rye. The next step, is to attack birth control by flooding the zone with rhythm method shit...which they've already done. Medieval witchdoctors will shortly be in control of a 22nd century society. What's everyone complaining about, dontcha know that Women Have Ways of shutting unwanted pregnancy down. It's a biology fact. /s

These assholes who constantly yammer about "small government" have absolutely no problem with sticking it directly up a woman's vagina. They don't give a shit about small government. They care about making women second-class citizens by dint of controlling their bodily autonomy.
What’s worrisome is where the assault on bodily autonomy will or won’t stop - some lunatic people are even attacking various methods of birth control (a highly effective way of preventing an abortion). Will a man who seeks a vasectomy be charged with attempted murder? What about women and tubal ligation? Since sex is ‘only for procreation’, will infertile people be required to stay celibate?
This is a fucking nightmare.

A right that can be stripped from one class is a right that can be stripped from everyone.
In that context, John Donne was absolutely right, even though he wasn't writing about rights:
Quote:No man is an island entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;
if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe
is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as
well as any manner of thy friends or of thine
own were; any man's death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom
the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
These Republicans will live to rue the day they installed this idiotic SCOTUS panel.

Okay, admittedly, that remark about the next thing was more in response to AWTY's talk about the right could react to the formula shortages. I was aware of their plans to go for contraception less than a fucking week after the Supreme Court decided to overturn Roe:
And beyond that... if T.J.'s video dissecting the top 10 posts on r/prolife is any indication, their ideal world will be worse even than that, potentially targeting divorce and premarital sex. (If you've ever watched Gaspar Noe's Love [and it's easily the weakest film in his oeuvre], Murph's endgame in that movie is pretty much what they think anyone who has sex without the desire for procreation to end up.)
There's a LOT to dislike T.J. over, from being the prototypical atheist neckbeard to the time he went out of his way to make a rape victim relive her trauma to taking six fucking minutes to get to the Reddit posts in this video, but he's pretty much spot on once he gets to the damn point.
At least I can take consolation in the fact that dakimakuras can't get pregnant.

We should start a conspiracy theory that formula production was shut down so the company could modify the assembly lines to accommodate birth control addition.

Surprisingly (almost) now men may be in the crosshairs. Of course, this won't pass as it doesn't target women.
An Oklahoma state rep proposed legislation that would mandate young men get mandatory vasectomies (msn.com)
"I would invite you to co-author a bill that I'm considering next year that would mandate that each male, when they reach puberty, get a mandatory vasectomy that's only reversible when they reach the point of financial and emotional stability," he told GOP lawmakers.

I think this plan was more in line with a sort of "Modest Proposal" mentality. For one thing, the lawmaker in question is a Democrat, and after proposing said bill, said "If you think that's crazy then I think that maybe you understand how 50 percent of Oklahomans feel, as well." I don't think he expects this law to pass, either.

PART 1/3
I'm a French citizen living in France but I follow what happens about "Roe V. Wade" because I understood a fundamental thing.
This fundamental thing is the next : If this case is reversed. The impact of this event isn't only about USA because it can inspire anti-abortion lobbies in others countries.
PART 2/3
If this case is reversed. What will happens next ? Why not the end of "Miller test" who will permit to each states , territories , district of Columbia , tribal governments to ban porn if they
want.
Life is already difficult for people working in porn industry.
If one day porn became illegal in nearly everywhere or everywhere in United States of America it will create a black market.
Those advocating for those working in this industry can tell you better than me the consequences.
Life is already difficult for people working in porn industry for many reasons and unhappily I can't be exhaustive because there are so many reasons.
1.Stigmatization in social life and professional life.
a.If you are a well known cisgender porn actor in straight movies. Find a common job after porn will not be easy and this is worse for cisgender men who made gay or bi. It's worse for cisgender women compared to cisgendered men. The worse of the worse is for transgenders who are more discriminated.
b.Sexual harassment
2.De facto limits about freedom of speech.
a.Do you know some financials services limit yourself in the porn you can do ? For example with some of them you can't show blood during periods and if you do so you won't be able to access to services.
b.Some banks refuse to give you a loan if you work in porn and less money means less artistic liberty.
It does have consequences in your personal life and not only in your professional life.
You have a legal work but banks refuse because of theirs internal rules written or not.
3.Western societies pretend you're free to live like you want if you're not a threat for another person.
If you do porn you are de facto under obligation to use a nickname in your professional life to protect yourself and we know the real names of very few porn actors/actresses compared to others celebrities.
What is Miller test ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_test
PART 3/3
If "Roe V. Wade" reach its end. Maybe one day it will be the end of "Lawrence V. Texas".
This landmark from year 2003 make that nowadays homosexual activities are legal everywhere in USA.
