But … they don’t mail the pills randomly. A person in the state where it is outlawed is requesting something from a state where it is not.
I don’t see how the CA doctors are in any way colonizing anything.
The California Catholic Conference opposed the law, arguing the state is “engaging in ideological colonization against states and citizens that do not want abortion.”
Are … are they trying to say CA doctors are mailing abortion pills to people who didn’t ask for them? What does this statement mean? Maybe what they meant was something like: “We do not believe women have a basic right to control their body, whether those women are Catholic or not, and that control should rest with the government of the state they reside in.”
Since it seems we are covering personal opinions, I think this is like all pride: sometimes it can be good and sometimes it can be toxic, often depending on who the person feeling prideful is.
I made no value judgement on this. I just pointed out this is common and it is surprising if someone doesn’t understand it.
You may not agree with it, but you understand it exists and that it is often tied to how someone is raised.
Yes, many people are raised to have pride in the town, city, state, country or planet they are from. It’s so common and cross-cultural that I am extremely surprised you would need an explanation by the time you’re capable of writing comments on the Fediverse.
Now that we have the pedantry out of the way, how is your comment meant to be helpful or move us forward? If it’s neither of those things, why are you doing it? All of this is rhetorical, of course. Just food for thought for us both.
There are millions of small companies and shops that need engineering help. Many will actually talk to you like a person because they haven’t been enshuttified to death.
STOP WORKING FOR THESE GIANT HELLHOLES.
Why are you applying to that soulless shitshack??
