What will Texas Republicans empower private citizen bullies to do next, now that they've enacted laws letting (potentially armed) thugs "watch" (Black and Latino) voters, prompted Texans to spy on women and file lawsuits for a $ bounty against anyone helping them end a pregnancy?
Will Texans be prompted to spy on teachers to ensure they are not teaching the true history of slavery and are only upholding the prim dignity of the white founding fathers? How about urging citizens to inform on and sue parents who send their children to school masked?
Texas is basically a small Soviet Republic at this point, with neighbors spying on neighbors, hoping to collect a cash bounty, in addition to being an apartheid state for nonwhite voters. What woman or POC could possibly feel safe there? To say nothing of the gun proliferation.
And know that as goes Texas, Florida will be right behind. DeSantis isn't just gonna sit back and let Greg Abbott out-Viktor Orban him. After that, it's the floodgates in Red Amerca. We are two countries. The United States, and Gilead. #underhiseye
UPDATE: South Dakota and Florida Republicans already bellying up to the bar.
