      The 2025 Medical Ethics Defense Act allows physicians to deny care to patients whose lifestyles they disagree with

      “It’s absolutely not ‘pro-life’ — and not very Christian either,” said Rep. Gloria Johnson (D-Knoxville), as she shared the woman’s story after the town hall. “And who else are they not going to treat? I had a friend say: what about someone who’s addicted to drugs or alcohol, or who’s struggling with mental health? If you can just refuse treatment to anyone whose lifestyle you disagree with — that’s not medical ethics. That’s fascism.”

      A bunch of American men believe women should not have sex outside of marriage (except with them of course, where women are expected to be nymphomaniac whores).

      Basically completely unrealistic and unreasonable shitty people
