Pregnant teen died agonizing sepsis death after Texas doctors refused to abort fetus
This is gonna be very insensitive, but ever since Americans gave a well known rapist and resident creep the presidency in a clear victory, I kinda stopped giving a shit about em. Americans routinely shit on the same human values the rest of the free world aspires to. Just read the UN human rights, Republicans openly oppose most of what's written there and Democrats don't care much either.
I mean women dying horrifying deaths in Russia, India or China rarely make the news, why should America be any different? It's fucking sad, but apparently that's what the American people want. Who am I to impose my foreign way of life on em? I was clearly mistaken to belive that the US has anything in common with us.
You’re right, it is insensitive. These women are suffering because the majority of voters suck. They may have voted a certain way, and then they might deserve it. But even then my guess is a big chunk of trump voters have no idea what the actual effect of his plans are, and are victims of propaganda.
Sure people are suffering elsewhere, but it’s always sad to see a country regress in freedom and health.
Just be more accurate: it's about 25% of americans who are traitorous, backstabbing nazi cunts who voted for Trump. It's way not even close to half, to say nothing of all.
If this person was one of them, then yes, do save your sadness for elsewhere. Otherwise, it's like it happening to you.
25%. That makes every forth person in the streets a fascist. And then another large chunk are fascist enablers or apologists, considering the fact that they stand unopposed. If you want to say "Not all Americans", I got a newsflash. "Not all Chinese citizens" and "Not all Russians". Some absolutely wonderful people live in these countries and most just want to live happy lives, free from all this bullshit. All I'm saying is I no longer see an excuse to pretend like America is any different and is most definitely not a worthy partner of the free world. Or being in my news feed as if it was my neighbor.
The only difference for now is that we relied on the US as our largest partner and thus it has more power to fuck our lives over too, but that's temporary and something we have only ourselves to blame for. The signs were on the wall all along, and yet we believed America was somehow better. If Americans are fucking stupid, then we're fucking delusional.
Which means that less than 25% were willing to stand against the traitorous, backstabbing nazi cunts who voted for Trump.
I don't feel better about the situation
Yeah that's not the winning line you think it is.
You say that as if 100% of Americans want this, I have friends there who never wanted any of this and I fear for them
Who am I to impose my foreign way of life on em?
Why would you? We dug the hole, we'll either bootstrap ourselves out of it or start Hitler 2.0 with an established military complex and nukes.
Jesus christ that's fucking sad, and very preventable.
Sending someone home after diagnosing them with sepsis. People should be in prison for this.
That'd be the people holding a gun to these doctors' careers.
Ah yes, just as Jesus would have wanted.
Texas, the "please tread on me harder" state.
Texas has been Republican controlled for almost 3 decades. This travesty is what they want. Just as the town of Uvalde overwhelmingly voted Republican again.
They don't reflect, they don't learn. Texas is the biggest blowhard in the Union.
"Go tread on them."
Yeah, and it'll likely keep happening.
Good job, America.
....But eggs...and muh border
Soon to be in all states.
The fact there are still doctors and nurses in women's care in Texas at all baffles me. It's not like there's no jobs in sane states, Texas isn't even that cheap anymore.
Every prolife dipshit is the same when something is wrong with their pregnancy "my abortion matters" or "my abortion is different"
The prolife movement is a bunch of self-serving hypocrites that go to church
The best way to whack at the hypocrites is to be in their congregations to respond to their bullshit directly in person
I don't fault the doctors - they couldn't perform the abortion without risking their own careers and possibly prison. The Texas legislature sacrificed that woman and others for Christian magic rattle-shaking.
But what I'd give to see a Doctor with the fucking stones to risk their career and prison to prostrate these shitheel lawmakers by telling them that their idiotic laws would have caused said doctor to break their Hippocratic Oath and ask them what is stronger: an Oath they made before their fellow man and witnessed by God, or the poorly written letter of the law.
I'd bet the fucking house that with that argument a jury wouldn't convict and, whilst it wouldn't undo the harm caused by the law, it would be the first precedent set in a common law system that would make state prosecutors more wary of enforcing said law. And a law that isn't enforced is functionally dead.
That would make a good movie with a righteous rousing speech and all. IRL the shits have no shame, the public's outrage dies down, and people go back to scrolling their feeds.

High time to rebrand the self-proclaimed "pro-life" movement as what they in reality are: anti-life
Fuck. Even my dog was able get this care a few short years ago when she only delivered half her litter. It's not a good way to go.
I didn't even think of that - animals still have access to abortion care in all these shithole states, don't they?
If the pastor farts the congregation shits
I think you rightfully notice that the way out of this is bullshit is through influencing religious sects and institutions
and also electing a human being for as a president is a good start
This is PROOF that Texas is Pro Life and Saving The Children!
Judaism and Islam tend to be more strict with their laws and every topic has been discussed at length millennia ago. Yet both religions aren’t anywhere near as restrictive as some of the abortion laws passed in the US, to the point these restrictive laws infringe upon the religious freedom of Jewish and Muslim women. As I understand Christianity doesn’t concern itself with abortion yet Christian nationalists in the US are obsessed with it. Perhaps their obsession is more nationalistic and less religious.
If it's not illegal there needs to be a new "policy". If a girl like this comes into your hospital say, "Get out of Texas," and not another word.
Lol America - get fucked
How can these doctors live with themselves doing this? They murdered this girl and there will be no consequences.
That's some horseshit blaming the doctors. Blame Republican politicans.
Multiple parties can be responsible for something
She was 18. She was still a kid.
How can they call themselves pro-life?
How can they say they are protecting the children?
18's old enough for porn. That makes it OK
/s
Dawg, I was fine with porn the instant I discovered it. Maybe 8 years old?
18 is a kid? I doubt any politician want kids to vote
If I remember correctly, a republican was trying to increase the voting age to 25...

21 year olds are still kids most of the time.
