We need to be ready to march in the streets if SCOTUS tries to pull some fuckery. They’re not even supposed to be in the loop on elections. That’s the newly elected Congress’ job.
Hate to break it to ya, but marching in the streets won’t solve this. More drastic measures would have to take place, and frankly I don’t see that happening.
On the contrary a massive number of people on the streets is the only way we’ve seen effective change in the past couple decades. Violence has led to protracted conflicts with a low rate of success.
Ah yes, I also remember when the Iraq War protests stopped the invasion. And when Occupy reigned in greed on Wall Street. And in 2016 when Trump was defeated. And in 2020 when we finally ended systemic racism and police brutality.
Don’t forget when the Pussyhat Protests stopped Roe v. Wade from being overturned.

You need to start adding a zero to get numbers that change things. The abortion rights marches have absolutely changed stuff. The Republicans refuse to admit they ever had anything to do with getting rid of abortion and abortion rights have won in all 7 states that already voted on it. Now they’re on the ballot in 11 states for November.

When you get enough people, and it’s not some nebulous idea like gun violence, stuff actually happens.

Lol you are so close to “riots work”

Which, if so, then yeah dude ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼
