@alienghicEven if it didn't have the desired effect, I believe the protests made a difference in the collective consciousness. Just like Fridays for Future did. Of course, protest alone is not everything. It must lead to constructive action / change. @TrackerRoo @TonyStark

Republicans stole two Supreme Court seats for Trump and another two were appointed by a president (Bush) who only took power because that Supreme Court stole an election for him. And together they're taking what's left of our democracy.Conservatives on the Supreme Court don't just oppose abortion and want guns everywhere. They oppose democracy, because in a functioning democracy there wouldn't be a conservative Supreme Court majority right now.If you aren't terrified by how the Supreme Court is now controlled by a bunch of Mitch McConnell installed, Christo-fascist right wing authoritarians as democracy hangs in the balance, you haven't been paying attention to the GOP's hard turn in recent years.I don't much care how or why people voted or didn't in the past. That doesn't really matter now.What matters now is how and where we show up today, tomorrow, and every day after that.The Supreme Court’s new gun ruling means virtually no gun regulation is safe-https://www.vox.com/2022/6/23/23180205/supreme-court-new-york-rifle-pistol-clarence-thomas-second-amendment-guns

@TonyStark Supreme Court needs to be abolished. A House committee should be responsible for making those decisions

@TrackerRooThis committee must necessarily include highly qualified, mentally healthy, independent physicians, psychiatrists and psychotherapists!Judge Clarence Thomas not only has a God complex and severe dissociative identity disorder, but was certainly drugged or otherwise subdued by his racist wife.Every third-rate athlete must submit to a health/doping test. It is high time that politicians and judges are subjected to similar standards!🤬@TonyStark

@harmonyears2The Supreme Court is no longer legitimate. They're historically low in polls.People are talking about simply disregarding their decisions. All Democrats for office in November need to make this a central point of their campaign so people know what’s at stake. It’s not just an abstract threat - Thomas is putting it out there in plain sight.It needs a check. It needs a revamp. They're an unelected body with far too much power.@TrackerRoo

@TonyStarkAbsolutely. These Supreme Court decisions are another punch in the gut of (American) democracy. In light of these rulings, I feel as sick as I did when the Capitol was stormed. Frankly, I don't understand how people, women! media! accept these rulings without loud protest.@TrackerRoo

@harmonyears2 @TonyStark @TrackerRoo It's sickening. Abortion is often a necessary medical procedure. This is abhorrent. That there are even more human rights considered to be ungranted is more abhorrent. As a doctor, I offer care to all patients. This is all meant to limit care and will cause unnecessary death. Republicans want to make it hard to get healthcare if not impossible as it is.
