Is it OK for the black majority to make laws governing the choices of the white minority in South Africa?

I ask because of this guilt-tripper doing her level best to stoke outrage that white people will make abortion laws impacting the choices of nonwhites.

Oh, dear me.

White conservative women have played key role in abortion policy changes this year

The main storyline on reproductive rights for months now has been this: Men, many of them conservative, have moved to curtail access to legal abortion and even ban it, imposing their will upon women.

That would be the main guilt-tripping misandrist propaganda line that we are so disgusted by and so used to.

The truth, however, is more complicated.

White women have joined men, mostly but not exclusively in the Deep South, in using their conservative majorities in multiple state legislatures to make sweeping changes to abortion policies this year.

Those laws that survive legal challenges will most deeply affect women too poor to travel or move to a state with better access to abortion services. 

That’s a group that is disproportionately black and Latino — and, in the case of black women, a group that tends to support access to legal abortion. 

This gap between those making the decisions and those affected by them, experts say, is a dynamic with deep roots in American history.

And it happens the other way 'round in every American city or county where a black and overwhelmingly Democratic majority makes the rules for whites, often much more Republican, and other minorities.

Oh how awful!

Wait, is it racist to deplore black majority rule over a white minority? White nationalist? White supremacist, even?

Oh, golly.

The role of white women — long key players in dictating and constraining the reproductive choices of others — is too often discounted and overlooked, experts say. 

In 2019, new abortion restrictions were passed in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana after white women co-sponsored them, many voted for them and in one state, signed the changes into law. 

(In those four state legislatures, 48 women — almost all of them white — voted for the restrictions.)

When Democrats get like this they just make me want to puke all over them.

And regret that the Republicans want to kill me, so I can never vote for them, no matter how revolting the Democrats get.
