minus-squarexmunk@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up77·edit-28 months agoIs that really the quiet part anymore? The GOP being anti-choice and pro-matricide is pretty fucking obvious. The quiet part, for me at least, is being anti-democratic, anti-interracial marriages, and wanting to forcefully convert Americans to Christianity.

minus-squarexmunk@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up9·8 months agoSorta? With both the last ones they’ve been open about discouraging it but our current Scotus seems to be chomping at the bit to kill Loving v Virginia and I’m sure they’re doing homework to try and kill separation of church and state.
