⚠️ LEGAL DISCLAIMER:
This is a satirical commentary in the spirit of George Carlin. It aims to provoke thought and highlight the absurdities in current events. If you're offended, perhaps it's because the truth hits too close to home.
George Says: “WHEN A DEAD WOMAN HAS MORE LEGAL RIGHTS THAN A LIVING ONE, YOU KNOW THE SYSTEM'S FUCKED”
So, let me get this straight. Adriana Smith, a 30-year-old nurse and mother from Georgia, is declared brain dead—legally dead—after suffering severe blood clots during early pregnancy. But thanks to Georgia's "heartbeat law," doctors are keeping her body on life support for over three months to incubate a fetus until it reaches viability.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
This isn't healthcare; it's necromancy with a legal team.
Under this law, once a fetal heartbeat is detected—usually around six weeks—abortion is banned, with narrow exceptions. But here's the kicker: the law doesn't account for brain death. So, a woman who's legally dead is being used as a human incubator against her family's wishes.
Welcome to the United States of Absurdity.
Remember The Running Man? A dystopian future where the government turns human suffering into prime-time entertainment? Or 1984, where the state controls every aspect of life, even rewriting reality? Well, we've outdone them. We've got a dead woman being forced to carry a pregnancy because some lawmakers think a cluster of cells has more rights than a breathing, thinking human being.
And don't get me started on the so-called "pro-life" crowd.
They'll fight tooth and nail to keep a brain-dead woman on life support but won't lift a finger to help the living—like providing healthcare, childcare, or education. It's not about life; it's about control.
Here's a thought:
If your laws require a dead woman to give birth, maybe it's time to reconsider your definition of "pro-life."
George out.
And if you think this is just about one woman in Georgia, think again. It's about every woman, everywhere, being told that her body isn't hers.
