The Bible actually gives instructions on how to induce an abortion

It really doesn't. What it does is describe a religious rite that's a sort of combined paternity test/abortion if she's unfaithful. The idea being that the priest does his thing, she drinks the dusty water and if the child isn't her husband's she'll miscarry on the spot. If she doesn't miscarry, then God has proclaimed it's his kid and he should have more faith in his wife.

There's nothing in the description of it that would tell one how to trigger an abortion without divine involvement.

The true culprit is men,

Being pro-life or pro-choice isn't strongly genedered. It's not like men as a class oppose abortion and women as a class defend it. I think you'd be shocked at the sheer number of women out there who oppose abortion, and the number of men who don't. It would be more accurate to say that a swath of religious folks (Catholics and certain flavors of evangelicals) oppose it, and those in their social reach get pulled along with them, along with traditionalist conservatives who are all about controlling sexuality.

You mean when he finally dies and she inevitably releases a tell-all book to capitalize on the opportunity?

By extrapolating from there…there’s gonna be someone that is gonna make Trump look good.

This progression is necessary, otherwise the Democrats would not be able to sell every election as "the most important election of our lifetimes." The escalation of stakes is required.

Not true, we had anti-vaxxera long before Trump, of both the vaccines cause autism and crunchy hippy varieties. The former just mutated into an aggressive new form after being exposed to a novel virus and consequently a novel vaccine.

Texas killing this child for losing a pregnancy

Texas didn't kill her for loosing a pregnancy - Texas killed her by making her losing the pregnancy take too long by terrifying doctors out of speeding the process along, causing her to be in and out of hospital ERs repeatedly while doctors essentially played "hot potato" with her despite all of them knowing what needed done out of fear of being thrown in prison for a century if they did it, causing her to eventually develop sepsis and die.

It's much, much worse than "killing her for losing a pregnancy", and exactly how awful it is and how it got to that point needs to be spelled out in detail. Otherwise you'll have people pointing out that the Texas law has an exception for medical emergencies, and it needs pointed out and doubled down on that by the time the doctors were reasonably certain that a conservative Texas court would agree with them it was a medical emergency (aka she'd already developed a systemic infection), she was already doomed.

Are they? It literally points out "Who you voted for is secret" on the ad, right above where it says that people will know if you voted.

...and yet they've had power before - several times, including once with it being literally this dipshit - and haven't burned it all down to gain power yet.

But then this election is different, it's the most important election of our lifetimes, just like the Democrats have said about every other election since at least 2004. Down to the literal phrase "the most important election of our lifetimes."

The reality is both major parties benefit from the system, and both market based on fear because they don't have anything positive to offer voters that isn't an outright lie that the voters know is an outright lie. The big difference is the the GOP markets on fear of the other and the Dems market on fear of the GOP.

Anyways, why the fuck was he driving people out of the plains? Homies were just chilling in their iron chariots.

For the same reason as now - because Israel wanted their land.

Tusday was maybe the best a thousand years ago but who cares?

Closer to two hundred years ago, since the law in question was passed in 1854. But the point was it's that way for a reason, and that reason was a good reason at the time it was done. It seems so weird now because of social change that has since made it inconvenient.

It can also be changed if Congress wanted to, as it's just a regular law and not part of the Constitution or something else that would be harder to change.

On my instance you just click "Communities" at the top and it gives you a list of communities with three options at the top Subscribed/Local/All just like the main feed. Click all and you can browse or search the list of all communities, though the search is not great.

It's on Tuesday because that was actually convenient with the flow of business at the time. Most were Christian and wouldn't work or travel on Sunday if possible, it often took a day's travel to get to the nearest town with a polling place, and Wednesday was market day.

If Sunday and Wednesday are right out and you need a day's travel time (which also can't be Sunday or Wednesday) you're basically left with Tuesday or Friday. And if you're going to be in town for the market anyways then Tuesday makes more sense.

It is in November because that's after the biggest harvests, but not so far after that the weather is likely to be rough. And it's the Tuesday after the first Monday so that it can't overlap with All Saints Day.

On the upside it could be changed with a regular old law, it doesn't require an amendment or anything.

And sometimes that goes the exact opposite way. For example, Lorena Bobbitt was acquitted on an insanity defense and spent less than two months in counseling.
