      Nope. They want to go for a national abortion ban now. For them, states rights only matter when it pertains to marginalizing people and infringing on freedoms.

        Yup. If the state wants to make it OK to own someone else, that’s fine. If a state wants children to work, that’s fine. But if they want to legalize weed and give women bodily autonomy? No!

          Don’t forget, the slave states were all for forcing free states to comply with the Fugitive Slave Act in the run up to the failed rebellion. Classic bad faith rhetoric from the right.

      Much like their feelings on capitalism, states’ rights only matter if it helps them somehow.
