What kind of brainless doink needed that "revealed" to them, they say it out loud non stop
The sort of person who assumes "obviously they'll make exceptions when a woman's life is in danger! Obviously!" Despite the legions of people saying this was always going to happen.
As I say below (or above, not sure how it appears for you lol), I have of course heard those people say that, but I don't really believe they think it, and if they somehow do they're complicit in the harm by virtue of being too uncaring to do the slightest exploration of the world around them
The kind of person who said this sort of thing wouldn't happen when people said this would happen.
They knew, it was just the minimizing and dismissive language their trainers gave them to say.
If there does exist some magical person who really believed the GOP has a line when it comes to harm, then they can be held complicit anyway under the charge of being "a massive tool who lacks the empathy or care to explore one iota of the world around them"
