    And Johnson isn’t alone in his ire. Lately there’s been a push by conservatives to end no-fault divorce—in podcast studios and in the halls of government. Right-wing activist and influencer Steven Crowder, Daily Wire and PragerU host Michael Knowles, and conservative podcaster Tim Pool, among others, have all decried the nationwide standard as being too lax, granting women divorces on a whim.

    Crowder, the abusive dickbag whose wife divorced him because of said abuse thinks women shouldn't be able to opt out of shitty marriages? How surprising!

      Old cranky cons have been bitching about this for nearly as long as I can remember. Hell, the Birchers probably claimed it was a Communist plot, just like every other social change for the better.

      I think more prominent wingnuts are now saying the misogynist stuff out loud, and with a platform - and not getting shut down/filtered by others now, is all. They don't have to meet in small groups IRL or stand on the corner handing out pamphlets any more.
