I need y'all to remember when mentioning A Handmaid's Tale that this instance is not new. The author herself said she based her novel on the sexual assault and enforced birth which already happened to black women in this country during enslavement. This country would simply be doing something it had already done before, only white women would be the ones forced to have children against their will instead. (Although they don't care if it happens to women of any color or race).

And trust me that is what would happen because there are already incels and mgtows on Reddit and 4Chan who are fantasizing about sexually assaulting the pretty white girls and women they covet, because under these laws they know such women will not be allowed to abort any children that are the result.

Im not just looking at the Fall of HIPAA, Im looking at them attempting to also make it illegal to give children up for adoption, or at least make it untenable to do so, so that women who are forced to give birth are also forced out of the job market to raise children they never wanted. They want to make any ands all forms of consent illegal.
