History and Politics

A Sample: Fight bad policies with sarcasm. For example, male legislators have introduced bills to restrict women's reproductive freedom, so female legislators have introduced bills to restrict men's reproductive freedom. Oklahoma legislators introduced a bill to make fetuses persons, so Oklahoma Democrat Constance Johnson introduced a bill to make sperm cells persons. In other words, "life begins at ejaculation" and "every sperm is sacred." Other female legislators have introduced their own bills. Illinois legislator Kelly Cassidy introduced a bill to force men who want a prescription for Viagra to watch a video on the treatment of the drug's most common side effect (persistent erections), saying, "It's not a pretty procedure to watch." Kelda Helen Roys, who was a Wisconsin legislator running for Congress, wanted men who want a prescription for Viagra to have a stress test first. State Senator Nina Turner of Ohio wanted to require men who want a prescription for Viagra to first talk to a sex therapist and get advice about "pursuing celibacy as a viable lifestyle choice." Bank of America has foreclosed on a lot of people's homes and taken their homes from them. In 2012, Occupy protestors who were part of FightBAC (Fight Bank of America) moved living-room furniture-rug, couch, coffee table, and decorative fern-into a New York City Bank of America branch.
