On this Tuesday Top of Mind is voting.
Do it before it is taken away from you.
Kind of like bodily autonomy.
Just ask all the women who are fighting to get it back from the scaley old white men and women in power.
Voting and abortion rights have a lot in common.
Some people want to take away the right to vote. To make it fair?
Do you mean so you can win?
Okay, got it.
Well, if it is the only way you can win…
NO!
2020 was a fair and free election.
As was 2016, 2012, 2008, 2004…
You get my point, right?
If your policies aren’t getting you the results that you want, maybe try to be less of an ass. And stop trying to take away rights.
It isn’t the 1950s. Women deserve more rights than we had in that era.
For that matter, so do trans women. They are women just as much as I am a woman.
Has your head exploded yet?
Darn.
Do you hear that?
That high-pitched whistling followed by the thud and an ewww?
Yeah, that is the sound of all the TERFS heads exploding.
Maybe try to act like you like other people that are not like you.
You know?
And stop trying to take everyone’s rights that you don’t believe in away from them.
M’kay?
Everyone else, vote in November. Yeah, it isn’t a very exciting election that will sway the balance of power in America. It still is vitally important.
Here in North Carolina early voting starts on Thursday and I and my husband will be there. Because if no one votes, the ones who got their supporters to vote using hatred as fuel win.
The only things on the ballot locally are the School Board, a bond measure to fund schools, the mayor of the town, and the board of commissioners.
I don’t care how little or how much there is to vote on, I will be there.
