I am not from America and lives in Europe. I am trying to understand what life and values the republicans in office right now wants for America. Is the 50’s America the kind of country they hope to go back to or is it somewhat of a new state we have never seen before?
I am genuinely wondering if they have some kind of “utopian” community in mind doing all these changes to the economy and values.
More like 1850s laws where they could own people they deemed lesser, with a 1950s Leave it to Beaver Coat of paint slapped on top… Where women couldn’t get divorced without specific cause or have their own bank accounts, and everyone was pretending to be Christian due to the red scare
Did you know that in North Carolina, you need to be physically separated from your spouse for a full year before you can get divorced?
Ok? Even that archaic law is still world’s better than “he’s an asshole and there’s no love left, but since he hasn’t beaten me yet I can’t EVER get a divorce” like it used to be before no fault divorce was legal. And marital rape was just…allowed.
So not sure what point you’re trying to make here.
I was agreeing with you and providing an example of a stupid archaic law about marriage.
