Just remember guys, the supreme court isn't corrupted by billionaires they just happen to only want to do things that benefit the ultra wealthy. The gifts from mega rich people to Thomas mean nothing.

Yes. But I am puzzled why the Ultras asked the supremes to end abortion. If I was an Ultra, I would have legalized public sex and drugs and tent cities. How does preventing abortion help the Ultras? Anyway, that's a piece of the puzzle that I can't understand well yet.
Eliminating the EPA, OSHA, animal protections, all these things fall under the Ultra "I'm loving it" package.
Most likely argument for ending abortion is that it raises natality which means more workers/consumers. And I'm guessing tying it to religious beliefs reinforces the religion as well, which most agree that it's used to control the masses.
Just your daily reminder that literally no one but die hard catholics gave a single fuck about abortions until, what would today be called the right wing, made it an issue after losing the fight on desegregation and the civil rights act.
It was just the next evolution of the southern strategy. Inflaming hatred against "non-traditional" women instead of blacks (though trust me, there was still plenty of inflaming hatred against blacks, to this day), which extended into hatred against non-traditional things in general, Which was great cause it oh so conveniently covered pretty much everything liberal.
Oh, yeah, infighting is probably another good reason I had totally forgotten about. Give us something to fight over. You're right.
