We hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend. After last week’s coverage of the politics of the Roe reversal, we now move on to taking a look at the media, because boy is the consent manufacturing machine whirring into gear. Will looks at a trio of pieces from the New York Times that appear to be buttering up the readership to place the blame squarely on those least responsible, plus time well-spent on a profile of the most annoying people on Earth!

[@21526]

Matt and Felix's reactions to the new York times article are deeply disappointing. They keep trying to deflect and turn it into something else so they don't have to say it's Transphobia. I'm sure if you asked them directly they would say they are not transphobic and on some level I agree but this pattern of deflection is annoying.

i read this in-advance of the episode and even with my rhetorical guard already up i didn't really hear either of them say anything troubling within the purview of what you were alluding to. i don't really follow felix's side activities but matt has always, in my experience, been pretty quick to jump to our defense when discussing these kinds of topics, if only by dint of trans people generally being an embattled minority within the broader workers demographic. would be interested to hear what you took away from this ep that i didn't hear though

So can we differentiate abortion for medical reasons and abortion for birth control

[@solas6342]

No

[@effluviah7544]

No. They're often, if not always, more or less the same thing. For example, damage to the relevant organs/muscle systems for child carrying/birthing caused by a prior pregnancy which makes a current pregnancy unsafe to carry to term would then be both an abortion for medical reasons (medical risk due to damage from prior pregnancy) and also abortion for birth control (because it would also be an abortion to prevent the creation of another child). Same thing. The end result of an abortion is just to not carry a cell cluster long enough for it to get bigger, at the very basic level. The reasoning doesn't matter, it's the same shit and the various procedures for abortion are the same regardless.

[@IEatYourSandwiches]

"abortion for birth control" isn't real you just hate women. no woman would rather have to go in for an abortion than just take actual birth control, but that doesn't matter because the same people criminalizing "abortion for birth control" are also trying to criminalize ACTUAL BIRTH CONTROL

[@williamchamberlain2263]

37:04 what is it with the godamn protestant-bashing here? Just because someone isn't into having their faith governed by a strict patriarchal hierarchy wearing dresses doesn't mean that predestination is part of the belief set. If anything almost all protestant sects put more responsibility on each person because there's no last-minute rite to magic the intent and effects of your actions away.

[@blackdog9698919]

As more or less orthodox Marxists, the Chapo boys despise all religion on principle. American Evangelical Protestant Christianity is only singled out because they live in America and also it's wedded to capitalism in a way that Roman Catholicism can't be. They also hate Wahhabism and Zionism, which are part of the global capitalist infrastructure in the same way that American Evangelical Protestantism is, but it's not as personal and visceral in those cases. To be clear, I'm not sticking up for Catholics. A Roman Catholic world order would be _worse_ than capitalism. But it's nevertheless incompatible with capitalism because it wants to impose its own hierarchy and societal order which doesn't allow for, e.g., usury and moneylending.

[@Kolla965]

because the implication of personal responsibility is this "if you are poor or desitiute that's moral failing because you didnt pray hard enough", in short properity gospel, which is the main underlying current through almost every form of American protestantism.
