I recommend a 2015 book, The Real North Korea, by Andrei Lankov. There's a quote in it from a Western doctor: "For a health care professional, a police state is a paradise."
The point isn't to suggest that the Democrats are just like Kim Jong Un. But, when you socialize every health care issue, including soda drinking and plastic straws, individual autonomy goes away.
Ugh, it seems to me that "healthcare" is being used more frequently. Went from abortion should be rare but legal, to proud of my abortion(s), to, what's an abortion/it's Healthcare. I wonder if kids will stop using the word abortion to the point that many, in the future, will need a lesson on what an abortion is, especially with them happening mostly by pill.
I know that may read like a comment just about abortion, but in my mind it's related to the "blind spot." Quotes because I have half an idea it might be a Roman's 1 delusion/giving over, in most cases. Like Walz. Post-modernism is a helluva drug it appears. Keeps an old man like Walz(my age actually) not able to see the contradiction, even though he's smart enough to understand other contradictions.
An adverbial press, as you mention, or good comedians, would eat this up. Bablyon Bee is putting out hilarious responses to him, but I don't know anyone truly mainstream doing so.
Might have told you this before, but an acquaintance has a theory that a society can never "tolerate" great evils. It has to either shun them, or celebrate them. So "safe but rare" was never a sustainable position for abortion. It was either going to be all-but-outlawed, or it was going to become "shout your abortion, you're awesome!". And so various segments of the country have now selected for each.

So good! Thank you!
