    Every time I see Missouri mentioned in a national news/politics forum, even before I’ve read the whole post title, I get a sense of dread. Because it’s never anything good.

    ~(I currently reside in Missouri.)~

        But then I remember that in 2018 when Missouri voted down the proposition for right to work while voting the guys who passed right to work back in and elected a few new guys too who immediately went after the election trying to pass right to work again.

        I gave up on Missouri then.

          This isn’t directed at you, but why the hell do we use the rights propaganda words to describe things. “Right to work” is such a bullshit framing.

        Would they just ignore it? Didn’t they do that with your marijuana amendment? Or something else. I just remember it being relatively recent.

          It was the gerrymandering one they ignored. The cannabis one didn’t attack their power base and it is not something they directly controlled. I think the abortion one is more like the cannabis one.

          Fuck those fascists.
