10. And one of the exceptions the SCOTUS may go along with may deny women the right to vote if their names changed

since birth because they took a spouse's surname or otherwise legally changed their surname. This effort to block registration of anyone whose name does not match their birth certificate will be a high hurdle for people who took spouse's surname, or anyone who changed their name, which will likely affect trans people also.

IOW, the coup-sters want to throw a bone to the homophobic white males who want to not only own the libs, but the women and LGBTQ+ people. The bigoted people will be so busy celebrating their victory over 'woke', many will totally miss how the coup makes them all indentured servants with no legal powers too.

I keep thinking about The Iceman Cometh. Not a comfort, this delusion lifestyle. Not a comfort for those with clearer vision.
