Under which president was Roe v. Wade struck down?

This one.

And who put the Federalist Society justices in place who struck it down? Oh, that's right. Donald fucking Trump.

Under which president have abortion bans in many states popped up with complete inaction from the federal government? Under which president have anti-trans laws popped up with complete inaction from the federal government?

This one.

What powers do you think they have? Laws are struck down by the judiciary, which we've already established has been captured, thanks to Trump.

Here's a question for you: who has been enacting those laws? What is the nature of the legislature in those cases?

None of your gripes here are Biden's fault, unless you're wishing he'd be more authoritarian (fuck that). Trump is 100% to blame for the current state of the law, and helping him get reelected isn't going to help LGBTQ people or women's rights.

Trump is not to blame for the state of the law. The Democrats have had many chances over the years to protect the rights that the Republicans have said out loud, for decades, that they will remove. Time and time again they did not prioritize it. Biden was a senator and then vice president and then president during these opportunities.

None of your gripes here are Biden's fault

Yes they are absolutely his fault. He has been deeply involved in the highest levels of government for decades.

unless you're wishing he'd be more authoritarian (fuck that).

You don't think throwing teenage girls in prison for getting an abortion after being raped is authortarian? How privileged to be able to say that freedoms should be fought for based on your personal opinion of the right way of doing it.

I don't think we share a common view of reality. You seem to be under the impression that State laws are Biden's fault, and his inability to prevent them is also his fault. I don't share that opinion, as I don't see the facts leading to that conclusion.

I think it's not worth continuing this conversation. Have a good day. See you at the polls.

You won't see me at the polls and you can mald over it.

Your ideology calls it authoritarian to not give free-reign to unelected judges with lifetime appointments. You're a joke.
