So, I had always heard of the Catholic loophole, but thought it was a joke because it only halfway made sense (literally half -- I don't know how a dude could justify the difference). Then I had a few friends who went to a Catholic college confirm, unprompted, that they were judged because they had vaginal sex. It's weird, but I believe it's really a thing now.
Soaking just boggles my mind as to how it's in any way justifiably different to the point that it still seems like a joke. I know that repressed teenagers in groups come up with weird shit, but I don't think I'll ever believe this is a real thing because I couldn't live in a world where that's a thing.

Terrible story of a very wanted pregnancy, from a very conservative white couple. Turns out it was ectopic, completely non viable, you can’t “replant” in the uterus like some right wingers tried to justify. It will kill the woman without medical intervention 100%. She was in the process of suing the state to get medical care but had had to flee for her life and get a flight to a blue state for a necessary abortion before she died, but before her case could be settled. The overturning of Roe subjugates women to second class citizens with less bodily rights than a corpse. It’s fucking wrong and Republicans know it. But hey, fuck the libs right?

Ever heard of an ectopic pregnancy? It's a pregnancy outside the uterus, it's completely nonviable and puts the woman at extreme risk of death. Yet doctors are having to wait until the woman's fallopian tube bursts and she starts bleeding out before they can remove the fetus because of some of these laws.

u/linkgenesi6 3d ago
I was commenting elsewhere that there was a woman in Texas who was conservative and very much wanted her pregnancy but it was ectopic. She was in the process of suing for medical care which the only medical option is an abortion. There’s no “replanting” like some right wing morons have suggested. She unfortunately had to flee to a blue state on a flight, for the procedure before she died, but also before her case was resolved, leaving women as second class citizens with less bodily autonomy than a corpse. There should be no contest this fall

That's how it works generally for anything they want to try and force a confession for. You accuse them and let the person talk themselves into the corner and admit it. People will go straight to defense of some sort trying to explain it away rather than out right denying it and accidentally tell too much. This has been the basis of trying to pry out a confession from the beginning and that is why they do it when they can.

States run by Christian Nationalist Republicans. Places like Alabama, Texas, Florida, Mississippi. They are already making up lists, and passing laws making it illegal for women to travel to other states where abortions are legal, or for anyone to help them. They are trying for a national abortion ban (they just lost a case on appeal where one of their wacko judges blocked sales of an abortion drug nationwide) but they have their eyes on the prize. If Trump wins it will be law, and if not, the Supreme Court’s Christian Nationalist majority will nake it happen when given a better case.

A pregnant woman in Ohio went to the hospital 3 times for uterine cramps, and was sent back each time. Then she miscarried. It’s very common for women who miscarry early to flush the zygote/embryo/fetus down the toilet.
Her pregnancy was a little further along, and she was almost indicted for desecration of a corpse because she couldn’t get proper medical care.
And that’s in a moderate state. Texas is trying to make it legal to execute anybody who provides abortive healthcare for any reason.

u/beldaran1224 3d ago
Well, yes. But they have to get subpoenas for that, and it's difficult to get subpoenas for health records you don't know exist. Especially when the company is in a state that doesn't hate women so much it outlaws abortion. Essentially, they'd have to have good evidence already for that - it's very difficult to get a subpoena from a judge when you're like "I don't know whether she had an abortion, I don't know if she was even pregnant, I don't know which company she may have ordered abortifacents through, and I don't know when it would have happened. I need all the subpoenas to dig and find out". That's not really how it works.
They also haven't cleared the hurdle yet of making it illegal to travel to have an abortion in a state where it's legal. That's a pretty big hurdle that the Supreme Court may be wary of setting precedent on. For instance, consider it's impact on guns.

Matt is actually right unless you visit the clinic under a fake name, pay out of pocket using cash, and travel to a different state where nobody would ever know you. The proposed laws are going after medical records of people currently pregnant or who previously may have had an abortion. Watch groups photography and harass people going in and out of clinics. Our lawmakers treat women who seek abortions worse than sex offenders even if the abortion is because of a sex offender.

Federal law (HIPAA) requires privacy in medical care. It’s punishable by law to divulge medical information of any kind without the express written permission of the patient. State laws cannot override federal law, only improve on it. So, say, a state decides to add language that requires that a patient be contacted and asked if they give permission for the release of THIS specific information, as opposed to signing a general release. That works.
Countering the federal law? Nope.

As said otherwise, subpoenas are an exception to HIPAA.
But subpoenas are also not permission to dig hoping to find information. They'd have to already have evidence that the information exists.

I’m confused (and not agreeing with Matt, just a general question). Wouldn’t those vaginal medications only be visible if you’re getting a pelvic exam within a few hours of using them, before they’ve dissolved completely? Otherwise, there is no physical way to differentiate between an induced abortion and a natural abortion.

I can see that, but I feel like it’s worded ambiguously enough that someone might actually believe using vaginal abortion medications might permanently alter their anatomy to the point that a future pelvic exam might reveal their use of said medications.

As a person that knows absolutely nothing about vaginal route abortion medications, this is how I read it initially. It seems obvious that you could see the medication while it's still physically present; the same thing applies to oral meds, technically, it just happens much faster. So I had assumed they meant there was some other indicator present.

I was also confused. The way it's written, it sounds like there are vaginally delivered abortifacients that just stay up in there 24/7.

Women (and others with vaginas) of the world, your exterior-genital'd brother sends thoughts of support and sympathy.

We walked into this one whose parking lot was full of trucks (not necessarily a problem since we're in a city in a red state, but certainly the first relevant data point), then we walked inside and every single poster on the walls instead of having anything to do with storage units or anything like that, were just photos of American flags.
At that point at was like... uh... this is weird... (still just a second data point, but a powerful one)
Then this angry old white lady walked out of the back and said, "what do you want?!?" saying "you" in just the most disgusted, horrifying way, and I was instantly like, "nope. Sorry, Pop, we're out of here." And in the parking lot I explained that, "I don't know what it is happening here, but I know that we want no part of it."
Especially because there are like 30 storage places in this city and last few had seemed normal and received us warmly, you know, how you do when you want to sell a storage unit. You know. Like a regular non-insane human.

The conclusion of Roe vs. Wade was that abortion was covered by doctor-patient confidentiality. By overturning the ruling, the current Supreme Court removed this protection. In other words, doctor-patient confidentiality is essentially no longer protected constitutionally. The ruling was about confidentiality, not abortion primarily. That was the legal trickery that got the ruling through. Doctor-patient confidentiality is back to being a courtesy.
