        The problem is too many women and minorities vote for the opposite party so they want to make laws that take away their rights without explicitly saying that is what they are doing.

        You have a really hard time listening to anything but your singular republican “I don’t see what’s so wrong about providing ID” talking point.

        The problem you’re ignoring every time you paste that reddit republican shit is that republicans are trying to restrict what ID counts as a proper ID and have selected passports. Since they’re a federal ID instead of a state ID, the trump-controlled federal government can restrict how they’re issued. And selectively revoke them from people that republicans don’t want voting.

        Plus, they’re expensive and time consuming to get. It’s a de facto poll tax, and I’m sure you have a talking point about how poll taxes aren’t so bad either.

          I’ll spell it out for you. I am not glued to yankee media. So no, I’m not reiterating “Republican talking points” or “pasting” from them. I’m just reacting to what I’m reading in this thread and what I’ve seen from some British media which has a similar discussion.

          LOL. Insufferable. Bye.

            Republican talking points don’t politely stop at the water’s edge. British media will happily print them.

                  I gathered as much. I’m just saying not everyone you talk to on the internet is American. It’s not the default. I’m writing to you in my third language. I have no obligation to follow your media cycle.

                  But regardless. I know that access to health care is limited for lots of Americans, and it was not my intention to be hurtful.

                    It’s clear that republican propaganda has made its way to you anyway. You repeat it without a second thought.

                    and it was not my intention to be hurtful.

                    You dismissed what I was saying by calling it mental illness. I can’t see how that could have been intended as anything other than gaslighting and abuse.
