To be honest, I think we should stop using the term Taliban when we talk about the Texas situation. This is religious zealotry, sure, but when we connect it to other people (who don't look like white Americans) and other regimes (that are seen as brutal), it allows too many people to continue in their denial that anything like that could happen in the USA.

The people who pushed for and passed these new laws are Americans, born and bred. And they are mostly Christians.

We can say #NotAllChristians, but the truth is, they are no better than any other group that oppresses women.
