‘Fetal personhood’ bills would grant fetuses, embryos the same rights as newborns.

    This should be in politics.
    I’m so tired of reading about American insanity, I unsubscribed from politics, is there a news page that does NOT contain American politics?

    I feel for the victims, but only Americans can do something about it. And they never dealt with the “death penalty for walking on the street while black” problem.

      I get the sentiment, but politics and news are irrefutably intertwined.

      I feel for the victims, but only Americans can do something about it. And they never dealt with the “death penalty for walking on the street while black” problem.

      I would argue this is a lot like people in France questioning why they should pay attention to Nazis invading Poland. Nearly all democratic nations are currently being subversively attacked by right winged political parties .

      If people in your nation don’t learn from the US’s example, right winged parties will continue to grow in power.

        Invading another country is not internal.

          Do you think it’s a coincidence that fascist parties all over Europe are gaining traction at the same time, running on the same platforms, and offering the same solutions?

          They are going to use the same play book being utilized in America in your country, if you don’t know the playbook you are going to have the same problems.

        Yes absolutely, I already use that, but maybe I should just unsubscribe from breaking news like I did with Politics?
        But I do want news from USA that have an international impact. Because USA remains a significant international player.

          Unfortunately, yes. I wish I could avoid it but I’m in America, so I’m choosing to stay up to date and try to figure out what to do, but there will likely be an avalanche of breaking news from us for as long as tRump is god king president or whatever, or until he managed to squash any coverage of his wild shit.
