It’s hard to gauge how today’s Supreme Court case about emergency abortions will come out because the lawyer defending Idaho’s total ban was so smugly condescending toward the women justices that even Barrett (rightly) lost her patience with him. slate.com/news-and-polit…

This was bound to happen. The situation has become a media circus and as a result all the weirdos are going to go rushing to them. They aren't there for the protest. They are there for the media attention. And coverage that does not acknowledge this is lacking self-awareness

I’m not gonna pretend there hasn’t been some pretty offensive shit happening around some protests. There has. The students can self-enforce better, yes. But this is now at the point of being a self feeding implosion of media making, and I only hope no one is hurt at its crescendo
