    For sure. How many people are actually affected by abortion? Maybe 1-3%? The way the democrats make that one of their main talking points (at least from what I’ve seen) is not going to work imo

    Google is free bro

    One in every four women will have an abortion in their lifetime. About two in every five pregnancies are unintended (40% in 2015). Roughly the same share of these unintended pregnancies end in abortion (42% in 2011). About one in every five pregnancies are aborted (21% in 2020)

    Which issues in American men

    a lot of the issues involving american men are not particularly gendered per-se, but they aren't typically included in the conversation of whomst such things affect. this doesn't mean they are solely "men's issues", but a lot of times the languages seems exclusionary of men; when it does involve men, it often seems oddly cautionary or condescending. I know it's easy to say "well it should be obvious it includes men", but often it's really not, especially for youth which has no reason to be enchanted with politics to begin with.
    It's easy to see about how general economic situations - particularly home buying but also issues with education, income, and job market - are particularly alienating to men when men are still treated with the expectation of being providers and traditional masculine roles. This isn't because these things are limited to men, but when there's infinite history besides expectations of male roles in society (think about pressures from outdated societal views from parents and grandparents), and this is interwoven into a society which increasingly non-gendered in accomplishment and more neutral in terms of things like hiring, etc. it's easy to see how strained economies create a view of abandonment and failure in men.
    I think the issue is very often with this conversation people want to then rebutt with gendered issues - like "well bad economies hurt women, and many women are single mothers so it's actually worse..." or something in that sense. I think the problem is no one is disagreeing there; even most of these men. I know online much of the conversation veers towards the toxicity of certain men online as a pivot for why issues are/aren't important, but realistically the problem with many issues is that they aren't gendered but young men aren't clearly being included in the conversations. I think if we want to talk "gendered issues", huge problems may include things related to education, divorce rates (from parents, I mean), etc. - but realistically at the end of the day the inclusion of young men as a demographic explicitly in economic conversation remains a primary problem

    The issues aren’t gender specific per-se but men need to be included in the conversation. What a scathing write up about the failure to address male issues

  • Rockstard

    Florida has the largest population of Puerto Ricans in the United States, with an estimated 1,171,637 people of Puerto Rican heritage living in the state as of April 2024. This makes up 5.6% of Florida's total population.

    They did some nonsense last minute that played really with Cubans (think it was centered around socialism in Cuba) in Florida iirc

    The more I learn about Hispanics the less I know about them politically
