Kevin LaRose, 8647<p>I think many would agree that today we find ourselves in a situation where many things we hold dear and thought were settled over the past 75 or even 100 years are now under attack and threatened to be dismantled. I think about me as a person with disabilities. Many employment opportunities available through <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DEI</span></a> programs are now gone. Disability rights in general are being weakened because we need to bow to the needs and wants of business. And then there’s <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SCOTUS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SCOTUS</span></a> nuking <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Roe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Roe</span></a> and almost certainly setting their sites on <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SameSexMarriage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SameSexMarriage</span></a> next. And why stop there? Why not get rid of <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Miranda" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Miranda</span></a> and <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Gideon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gideon</span></a> while they’re at it? Perhaps even <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Loving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Loving</span></a> to boot? And also decide that maybe the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Confederacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Confederacy</span></a> was victorious after all? I think I’m in need of lunch and possibly an attitude adjustment.</p>
