Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez used a part of ‘A rapist in your path’ to show her annoyance at the decision.
The US Supreme Court overturned last Friday protection of the right to abortion in force since 1973. The situation generated criticism and demonstrations in that country, among them was the congresswoman Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
The woman, of Puerto Rican origin, was present at one of the main protests in that country at the headquarters of the highest court and, on social media, alluded to Theses to refer to the topic.
“Patriarchy is a judge. That he judges us for being born. And our punishment. It is the violence that you do not see“, Ocasio-Cortez exposed, alluding to the song A rapist in your path, created by the Chilean group.
“Thank you all for your solidarity. We are in this fight together, with inspiration from our Latin neighbors and around the world,” she added.
According to CNN, in that demonstration there were some incidents between anti-abortion supporters and groups that criticized the decision of the judges.
“Patriarchy is a judge⁰Who judges us for being born⁰And our punishment⁰Is the violence you don’t see.”

Repeal of the right to abortion in the US
The three progressive justices of the Supreme Court voted, as expected, once morest this decision.
“With sorrow for this court, but especially for the millions of American women who have today lost a fundamental constitutional right, we dissent,” Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan pointed out in the opposite opinion that they have jointly signed.
“Roe versus Wade” it was ruled in 1973 and guaranteed the protection of the right to abortion throughout the country.
In 1992 “Planned Parenthood versus Casey” ratified that right, although it also allowed the states to regulate the process as long as it did not prevent it.
That prompted conservative states to pass laws restricting abortion rights. The foregoing, as has been done since 1992, and more intensely in recent years.
With the ruling of the last day, the states that so decide will be able to totally ban abortion in their territory.
