how imaginary and hypothetical are these right wing legislations

From the article:

For example, Dickson said, a husband who doesn’t want his wife to get an abortion could threaten to sue the friend who offers to drive her.

They're not imaginary, they don't even try to hide their true agenda: going back to treating women as property.

Sorry. You're right, these aren't imaginary or hypothetical. They probably have thought out the practicalities, which is even scarier.
