    by actually going out and doing something to undo the damage, like voting against those who support these policies. making a bunch of people sad about the situation makes their story told but all it does is make sure that story will always be told. ‘raising awareness’ is useless if thats where you stop. everyone is aware of the abortion situation going on, it literally affects everyone who can reproduce. i definitely get where youre coming from but at some point the only people these stories are “helping” are the people at CNN collecting ad money from all the clicks. thoughts and prayers never actually helped anyone. plus the idea that CNN would want to help out in this situation is laughable, they thrive on conflict.

    the media constantly reports on mass shootings and has done nothing to stop them it has only normalized the behavior, now nobody gives a shit. im not really sure how anyone constantly being exposed to the same situation wouldnt eventually normalize it. i stand by the women who are pro-choice but this isnt helping the situation at all its just giving CNN more ad money.

    i just wanna make it clear that i dont think what this 45 year old woman is doing is pathetic, i think cnn pretending this story is news is whats pathetic. its exploiting all the anger for the abortion laws. someone in the comments below said its to prevent normalization but seeing articles about this exact situation over and over again is doing exactly that.



  • what difference does it make now? 99% of white americans claim native american ancestry as if we fucked these people into extinction. everyone i know is related to a cherokee or blackfoot princess through their great great great grandparent…i even heard the same story in my family. once i got my dna test results that said “0% native american” i started to wonder exactly how many indian “princesses” there are. if you change it, best case scenario everything stays the same and worst case scenario you get fired for lying on your application. doesnt seem like a good move to rock the boat.
