Ron DeSantis’ False claim that some states allow ‘post-birth’ abortions. None do. - Lemmy.world

In case anyone doesn’t understand how all this works:

Republicans make outlandish, grandiose, patently untrue, vitriolic and inflammatory statements.

This is picked up by right wing “news” outlets like FOX, OAN, Newsmax, etc. and “reported” and repeated. To the people who watch these sources they believe its legitimate, real and true.

These people ONLY get their information from these sources: huge echo chambers. There is no fact checking, no competetimg opinion and no misinformation correction. It is in fact the purpose.

This is meant to stir anger, resentment and many other immoral narratives and it works.

Post birth abortions are OF COURSE not a thing but that truth will be lost on the people that consume and believe this bullshit.

That is very true and explains a lot.

I do wonder what the ring-wing viewers think a post-birth abortion is. Because unless I'm missing some context that redefines "post-birth" that's just regular murder. And I'm still struggling to wrap my head around the wrapped-ass mindset you'd need to think your political opponents are OK with just yeeting infants straight to the morgue.

New hospital floor layout when?

Upper floor:
Room equipped to handle birthing

Middle floor:
Nursery station where newborns are kept for a calm and sterile environment to ensure they stay healthy

Lower floor:
Giant freezer, similar layout as the middle floor, just less necessary to keep it sterile or anything. Has the advantage that you can stack containers and save space

/s, though I wonder how many people would believe it if they were told this was planned…
