The state has one of the country’s highest maternal mortality rates. Now, three hospitals plan to stop delivering babies, putting some pregnant women at even higher risk.

    Fuck everyone in this thread cheering this on. This is NOT the schadenfreude you think it is.

    Read the article you dipshits. This is not impacting the wealthy, or white areas, it’s impacting the poor black ones.

    All you lazy armchair activists are cheering on the actions that are guaranteed to raise the black infant mortality rate in Alabama even higher than it already is.

      Almost everyone in this thread is talking about how this is a bad thing and why it happened.

        Never let reality stop you from getting infuriated.

        When I came to the thread I just spammed my point across all the top comments, which were all cheering it on.

        So you’re just seeing my comments, and maybe others who came in after and also read the article.

            Yes, I took approx. 2 minutes of my toilet time to call out the bad takes.

            Do you want to help me manage my shits more effectively?

            If I send you my pooping schedule, can you make sure to recommend the posts I should respond to?
