      It’s only pro life as long as the child is being carried.

      Once the kids out, they don’t give a fuck about the woman or her child. They could both die, and they’d have no issue with it.

        they don’t actually care about the child, or its mother, before it’s born, either. if they did, our health care system wouldn’t be a for-profit scam.

          A lot of the lobbying money for anti healthcare stuff comes from woowoo supplement companies etc. Imo we should be regulating the shit out of those companies at every level of government. Ban advertising for the products to prevent false claims, etc.

        Not even then, at this point. Using ‘deadly force’ on a pregnant woman is not going to go well for the fetus.

            It never was. “Pro-life” was just a weaponized slogan.

            What they really stand for is “Forced birth” and “Promiscuous women should be punished”.

              There, fixed it for you. Nothing promiscuous about getting raped

                You and I know that, sure.

                But conservatives love victim-blaming in rape cases.

                  “Did you see what she was wearing? Her collar bone and ankles were showing. Slut was asking for it, she probably liked it”

              I was actually quite stumped by the “abortion is murder!” argument initially as it can get philosophical quick on what constitutes a life that can be “murdered” (i.e. does it have to be birthed, walking, able, etc, this is a bad summary)— but the spike in alt right violence against women, children, and just people in general in the US made the hypocrisy glaringly obvious.

                A woman’s chance of getting murdered while pregnant (already distressingly high) has already increased significantly in states that outlawed abortion.
