Better For Whom?

So, submitted for your approval is the newest BS ad from the Republican Party, the subject of our latest Call-Out.

The title of this ad is "We Can't Go Back", and exhorts us not to give up now that things are getting better.  My question is, better for whom?

Are they getting better for those who might decide they need to get an abortion now that we have our newest Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who cannot decide if Roe V. Wade is settled law?

Or for gay Americans, who in 2015 finally won the right to marry?  The Republican Party is known to be quite antipathetic to gays.

Or for transgender Americans, who might, for all intents and purposes, be erased.

Or Black Americans, who are constantly being arrested and harassed, beaten up, even killed for basically Minding Their Business And Living While Black.

Or women, for whom it has never been safe.

Or religious minorities, who apparently cannot even go to church in peace.

No, we certainly can't go back.
