If you don't want to get buried under downvotes, don't post anything anti-capitalist here. This space is being monitored and the bot users and zero karma spammers are downvoting anything that criticizes the system of capitalism. They don't want you to know WHY work sucks so much, they just want you to have a good cry and get back to work.
Disclaimer: I'm 28M btw. Please lift female voices right now The Supreme Court is seeking to end Roe v Wade which is another form of class warfare. 1) Americans continue to learn nothing from history. Prohibition didn't stop people from drinking. They went underground and technically became criminals. 2) Women who cannot afford to leave their states to get an abortion will likely be forced to have undue financial burdens placed upon them.
