    Can we very briefly touch on the logical inconsistency of the “your body, my choice” crowd losing their shit over being told to wear face masks?

    I don’t expect them to see this inconsistency, but wanted to touch on it anyway.

      You got it all wrong, it’s their choice, too. That’s the whole point, it’s always their choice. It always has been. If you want to change that, you’re privileged. Their privilege is the status quo, the default, their god given right. God gave you nothing.

    “Her body, [their] choice” implies “[their] body, my/our choice”, right?

    But eh, my penmanship (knifesmanship?) sucks. Best to use a branding iron.

      i mean no it doesn’t because right wing ideology isn’t “these things are good” it’s “i want to hit people and not be hit back”
