That's some platform, GOP Fascist Party: "NO SEX FOR PLEASURE!" Should garner a whole lotta votes.

1/...

Via Adam Jentleson:

Highly influential heritage foundation, which would help staff & direct a future Trump admin, literally said that a key conserv policy goal is “ending recreational sex.” they said it, not me. IMO we should take them both seriously & literally

(Heritage quote in next toot)

2/ Heritage Foundation:

"It seems to me that a good place to start would be a feminist movement against the pill, & for... returning the consequentiality to sex."

Conservatives have to lead the way in restoring sex to its true purpose, & ending recreational sex & senseless use of birth control pills.

3/ It's about power, people.

(I'm getting asked a lot)

It's all about power, control.

Yep. Always was, and it has only become clearer as they start to shout out the nasty parts instead of hiding them. Smells of desperation.

@GottaLaff Abuse of power is the issue; power itself is not the problem. It’s how a person or group uses power they possess.

@Jane22 Yes. Their goal is power. They do abuse it.

@JanisKay I never watched it. Too upsetting. Now we're living it, apparently

@GottaLaff technically…we are approaching it. I’ve not watched the latest season. It’s extremely good but due to our current events and so many parallels I can’t do the stress. Heck I don’t read as much news for the same stress avoidance.

@GottaLaff Of course such laws will only ever be enforced to punish people the fascists dislike. Just one more threat to keep us from complaining too publicly.

If they make normal things illegal, the police can harass anyone they want. Anyone is blackmailable. Everyone is vulnerable, and everyone is afraid. No one wants to stand out for fear of drawing harassment.

@GottaLaff Spouse & daughters no longer of child bearing age barring a miracle. Granddaughter working on master's degrees would likely be greatly disrupted by a pregnancy & is in no mood to tolerate this stupidity. The Puritans, Christofascists or whomever need to get some actual life and stay out of every woman's life.
