Unfortunately some US newsletters are not available for us Germans anymore, not only the one from #DailyKos, also the one from #IFLSience and a few others, that´s really bad. I´d subscibed for them for several years to get updates from the USA...
Those US newsletters, I mean the political ones like from Daily Kos, stopped coming when #DumpTrump´s been elected again. "Ein Schelm, der Böses dabei denkt", sorry but there is no proper translation for this German saying.
When the #DailyKos newsletter was still available for us Germans I once read an article about such a girl a few years ago, I don´t know if it was this one, there was no photo, but a 12 year old girl had to carry out the baby of her rapist who was her own father.
#AbortionRightsAreHumanRights.
🤬🤬🤬
And in some cases in a red state, the rapist gets visiting privileges with the baby. Cause , well , women are really only good for two things. And it's 2025, for god sakes.
Do not use the name of the great state of Alabama to make asinine statements. If you insist on doing so don’t be a fucking coward and do it from behind your keyboard.
Because people are dunking on Iran using "women's rights" as a cudgel to excuse Israel and America bombing the nation. The post was to illustrate that many of the harmful things Americans associate with Iran and other Muslim majority countries can be found in their own back yard.
You're absolutely right. Children being harmed in this way isn't specific to one religion of culture and it would be nice to see people highlighting the positives of Iranian culture and history separate from critics to the US.
It depends somewhat if you want to selectively pick and choose from Old Testament.
In the Old Testament if a man rapes a woman, they are both to be put to death, unless he purchases her from her father(because it was his property that was damaged) and they get married.
I'm frustrated with any Dem who isn't actively opposing Trump's agenda-like Schumer's 10 who let the budget bill through, or Jeffries who talks more than he fights. I expect more-like what we get from AOC, Crockett, Bernie, Buttigieg. We need that kind of clarity and courage from the rest.
I agree with you that MAGA is a fascist cult, but your "freedoms" didn't disappear with its arrival. ICE already existed, genocides were already ignored, your healthcare system was already in ruins, etc. You only had an illusion of freedom, and that's what was taken away.
We were progressing, we had hope of working through those things. We had a voice but after losing the elections we don't. The law is our last stronghold. Democracy has crumbled to fascism in the United States of America. Let this be a lesson to folks take care of your democracy or lose your voice.
WOW !!!!🤯….😞….🤬🤬🤬🤬. Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a nomination for “post of the night “ !!!! Bravo, I salute you 👏🏽👏🏼👏🏾👏🏻👏🏿👍🏾 ( GOP stands for good ole predators categories)
Alabama, Texas, Missouri, and a host of others, are trying hard to go back to 1850, when women were chattel, and non-whites were either slaves, or considered sub human. The only good news is that only 9% of American voters,think that the First Felon's immigration enforcement policies are good thing.
In Iran, the girl could be stoned to death for incest. In 2012, in Iran, stoning was removed as an enumerated method of death sentence, but not actually prohibited. Not supporting a war with Iran or Alabama, but if we’re talking about women being treated as sub-human, Iran isn’t above reproach.
Even if she dies, her corpse will be violated and made to incubate a foetus which will then have to be cut out of her rotting corpse at some early stage and probably die anyway.
The less-than-2-pounds “baby” was just extracted from a woman who died in February but whose body has been kept on machines because she was about 9 weeks pregnant when she died. The family didn’t want any of that but the state intervened.
I'm paying attention and I won't use language like the person above to speak about a baby or its mother. There is something wrong in her head. You all can keep doing your anti-human reasoning though, good luck.
My pronouns are they/theirs. My language is accurate in describing the horror inflicted on Adriana Smith. What they did to her after she died was an absolute atrocity. If you cannot recognise that, there is something very wrong in your head.
You really posted this as if it was some moral stand on business...smh. it's just a dispicable to marry off a 14yo as it is to do it to a 9year old. Both will be a sacrificed to satisfy the vile lust of grown men.
I absolutely didn’t mean it that way. I’m a child of the 60’s and remember life before birth control. My generation knew about back alley procedures that were highly risky. I am well aware of the zealots that would force children into adulthood. I am sorry if you interpreted my comments otherwise.
In the early 1900s, girls got married as soon as they got their periods. My grandmother married at 14, had my mom at 16. There were stories of girls of 12 who were sifting sand through their sheitls (wigs), when their teenage husbands came home from work/school. These were Orthodox Jews.
In Iran, if a 12-year old girl wants to walk the streets of her hometown, or Tehran itself, with no head or face covering? Or, if she is given special dispensation for her age, what does she have to look forward to when she is older?
As a victim of paternal incest speaking on behalf of the incest survivor community, I would ask that you include alt text. This is day or week-ruining discussion for most survivors and without alt text to enable hiding these posts it drives already vulnerable people off the platform altogether.
I was molested by an in-law for 7 years I was only 12 when it started it was improper touching. This is not to compare but to let you know you’re not alone I can’t forgive or forget he ruined my life and childhood. I couldn’t say anything, who would believe me, because he was a “wonderful “ man. 😢😡💛
I am so sorry you went through that, you should have never been exploited that way. And to what you said, I promise it's okay, you don't have to compare our experiences- the impact is still devestating and so is societally imposed silence. Thank you for having the bravery to share. I stand with you💚
Omg how archaic these laws are!! And to destroy a child’s life because an old man makes a stupid law! I just can’t believe we live in a society that would let that happen!
The saddest thing I've read in a while. Just speaking for a friend, but if it were my daughter, her 'daddy' wouldn't be around to see the birth of his grandchild; but if he did survive, he'd be looking at a hole where "Willy" used to hang out. 😠
Whoever voted for Trump,or just didn't bother to vote, shouldn't be surprised by this path, which was started in his first presidency and clearly outlined by Project 2025
And.......if you live in Texas, they go after you for crossing state lines to have any abortion. And........go after anyone that helps you over the state lines. MAGAt 2025
Theres more catholic churches than you think all across the south! But i also concur with the above comment about mississippi- everyday, local news has an update about a teacher, a cop, a daycsre attendant, a preacher who is hurting kids. Politics doesnt matter here- we gotta protect our kids
If you’re here to get away from the “ woke democrats”, I hate to tell you but this isn’t an echo chamber like twitter was. We see how shit the GOP is and WILL call it out as well as the Church and every “catholic” ruining gods word. Alabama is as bad as any red state. Case closed.
P.S. - this is a much bigger “echo chamber”. There was more diversity of opinion. While that is saying much, this place is worse. Next “go back to X and leave us alone”
GOP Christians keep child marriage legal in 43 states. 86% of the 300k child marriages in the US from 2000-2018 were young girls being married off to older men. Married minors are the property of their spouse until they turn 18. The only legal exception to statutory rape is if the minor is married.
In 20 of the states where child marriage is legal, there is no minimum age with parental or judicial consent. It's all by design. Some of the 300k child brides were as young as 10 years old.
15-year-old Chris Adamek STREAKED an Alabama HS Football Game. Evangelical Republican DA/Sheriff/Principal plea bargain was 10 years in prison, lifetime sex offender registration. A Southern Baptist Preacher had sex with his 11-year-old stepdaughter 100's of time, 90 days, no sex offender status.
Instead of the father being arrested, tried for impregnating his daughter, and sent to prison for life after the confirmatory DNA test. He committed the crime. The victim should not have to suffer anything as a result. A quick, speedy, fair trial and then CLANG the prison doors shut him away.
There's no reason a 12 year old raped by anyone...let alone by her father...should have to go through a pregnancy that will permanently change her body, possibly even kill her, since very young pregnant women are at high risk of complications.
Imagine a pre-teen girl carrying and giving birth to her own sibling, then her pedophile bastard father getting her pregnant again, and the state not doing a goddamn thing about it.
Burn the man’s dick and balls and then hang him upside down in the neighborhood piazza! That what done a hundred years ago in a little Sicilian village!
As par my father, a rape never happened again!
Alabama isn’t the only state that has this cruel treatment of rape and incest victims. The country is shutting down women’s rights to protect their bodies.
Victims of rape/incest are violated twice by perpetrator and the courts.
As an Alabamian born and raised, and I have a house there too I can say this much: there are still some really “innovative OB/GYNs” associated with almost every hospital.
🎹Takin’ Care of Business Every Day🎹🙊🙉🙈😊
One of my daughter’s is pregnant with her second. There is a plan in place just in case.
Democrats always are so smug. Do you know that the FBI confirmed that the 2020 election was rigged? I don’t recall a positive thing that Biden accomplished. Democrats are so shady man. Good luck on your life, baby!
😛😁☺️🤣 well, apparently Trump was wrong. Now that he’s back in office, he’s opening investigations into things however, the FBI has legal proof that the election was stolen. Now go educate yourself little guy!
I'm educated and informed enough to know you are lying. None of the conspiracy theories about 2020 turned out to be true. And every Trump accusation has a way of turning out to be a confession. I suspect what he accused Democrats of in 2020, Trump DID in 2024. Begone, Trump troll!
Is this factual based or is this based off of bias from American media? Because we’re erasing trans rights, making it easier for rapists, and we have a prison in New York that is so deadly that they stopped sending people there.
Okay but let's be careful not to actually diminish the plight of the Iranian people and Iranian women. Israel may be in the wrong for the attack, the US wrong for its own backwards shit, but unfortunately I'm seeing people trying to over correct by simping for the IRGC when they shouldn't be
Just because Israel and the US are the bad guys, that doesn't mean the IRGC are now good guys. The Iranian people are fighting against their own oppressive leaders, and though I think some of the anti-regime people there have certainly been infected, it is still a legitimate fight
Show your sympathies for the Iranian people, not the regime, not the IRGC. Fuck the Ayatollah, things like what happened to Mahsa Amini (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Mahsa_Amini) amongst others shoudlnt happen.
Israel has no interest in aiding Iranian women and children, so that doesn't lessen their crime. The obvious point for the US is to fix the problems at home before vilifying Iran.
Sure, but I'm not claiming they are, and I even buffered for that. Yes it doesn't lessen their crime, and yea no shit Israel isn't doing this for any altruistic purposes.
And I don't trust the current administration (or from our history even our past administrations) to do well or have those
pure intentions with getting involved either, but some of us have interests outside of the United States. It's also worth distinguishing the IRGC from Iran as a country, and sorry but the IRGC absolutely deserves to be vilified,
Barbarism is a choice. America chose this. Individual beliefs mean nothing. The collective belief in that country is that women must be silenced and controlled, kept like cattle. Rid your country of weak men or be owned by them. That's the choice and everyone on Earth knows which way it's going.
actually no
"Abortion is currently legal in cases where the mother's life is in danger, and also in cases of fetal abnormalities that make it not viable after birth (such as anencephaly) or produce difficulties for the mother to take care of it after birth,-
such as major thalassemia or bilateral polycystic kidney disease. There is no need for a consent from the father and request and consent of mother with approval of three specialist physicians and final acceptance by legal medicine center suffices.
Which is why they continue to elect the same people who will keep them uneducated, poor and ignorant and not understand why the country is passing them by.
They don't based it on the Bible... They don't even believe in Bible... It's just so convenient for Grump to use it... If Golum base is cruel and don't believe, Grump win.... If the base believe... Smeagol win again...
And above that... they don't have any humanity... Triple win...
Yep ! Top shape ! Don't let the nick names I gives to the orange boogey man, distract you.
It's only the effect of the exposition to nullity, bulling, violence, bigotry, cruelty and lack of humanity that make me talk like this. But I thank you to care about me. Hope you are good too !
Wait you're so right. Because they don't even understand the Bible but using it as an excuse to permit mass evil. If they really read the Bible a lot of people (especially men) would be walking around eyeless...
In fact Trump understand nothing at all except revenge.
In his first mandate all he did was undoing everything Obama did, and took revenge on a few. No real talk about religion and nothing about Trans people, LGBTQ+ population, not much about abortion, etc...
Since Stephen Miller and Elon Musk took more and more in the 2025 formation, a lot of things changed.
Elon had the equipment and the staff to rig the elections. That gave him a nice place beside Trump.
And presumably the risk to be impregnated in Alabama is higher than in Iran. Iranian fathers have higher standards and more brain cells than Alabama MAGAts.
Ok so that's two actors accounted for. How about the 12-year old victim? I feel I already know what kind of reply I will get (if any) so I don't even know why I bother.
It's ironic because even though your post includes the word "clue", it's kind of clueless. Also, you only seem to want to ask questions and not answer any, so I'll cut this short. Have a nice day though. And may never a young girl under your care get unvoluntarily impregnated.
For one it's not going to be a baby for quite some time. Some sort of life, sure, that would eventually develop into a baby. But while forcing the 12-year old girl — that's already gone through hell with her father raping her — to go through with the pregnancy and then the birth itself...
Yet here in England, this week, all restrictions in respect of a woman's wishes in respect of abortion have been lifted AND assisted dying has been passed by parliament. 2025 thinking, not puritanical 17th century thinking.
While this post stretches the truth on incarceration, it does very much describe the direction many states are heading. Fetal person-hood will lead to anti-birth control legislation and state monitoring of travel while pregnant is already being voted on in small jurisdictions. Be on guard.
Oh I do get it, I live in Texas. Any Dr who helps in any situation including ectopic pregnancy can be sued by anyone. Penalties are loss of license to practice medicine and 99 years in jail. So far no penalties for the women but that's coming. It's a horror story.

Thx for tax payers 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
And remember, we rules you !
Not gonna lie, thats actually fun to say.
Separation of Christian Nationalists and state.
And I don’t believe for one second that republicans & their families are not accessing abortion.
They just have money to travel far away or do it in the shadows with a private physician.
“No, a girl impregnated by her father in Alabama is not legally required to carry the pregnancy to term.”
Then you should be checking sources before you tell other people they are spreading false info. The only false info here is yours.

Not.
In the Old Testament if a man rapes a woman, they are both to be put to death, unless he purchases her from her father(because it was his property that was damaged) and they get married.
The “10 Commandments” are also in the Old Testament. Pretty much all the things they claim is against homosexuality is from the Old Testament.

Answer the question.
Also, we are talking about an extreme edge case (< 1 %).
How do you stand on the 99 % of cases?
The topic of conversation IS the extreme case. How I stand in abortion for other reasons is irrelevant.
