? 1 you can't just decide other people's beliefs like that you aren't even a part of the group, why would u be the arbiter of defining its nuance or lack thereof

2 how can you be anti-abortion 100% and be pro choice? but u can't be pro-life and allow abortions in extreme situations

dont know why u quotin the bible tho

sorry if i misinterpreted/assumed your position, i only page 3, i just quoted it because thats what many anti-abortion ppl cite

We agree then for the most part lmao maybe not 6 months tho idk

how were u saying another user is arguing in bad faith when you write like this while posing the question "why are people pro-life?" u didn't want an answer, u just wanted to circlejerk bout how republicans n some religious ppl suck. fair enough to do that, but this thread's premise is the "bad faith" attempt here

"The bill would require a health-care practitioner to “exercise the same degree of professional skill, care, and diligence to preserve the life and health of the child” as he or she would to “any other child born alive at the same gestational age.”

Well I was hoping for a perspective

I believe legalizing abortions providing birth control and teach s***education is very pro life

stems from my original post in this thread. i dont believe the term pro-life to really make sense or be a legit group

i can personally be totally against abortion. I don't have to care if my friend from HS gets one cus that's her choice...that makes me pro choice with me personally choosing against it. Like no ones begging people to care about strangers these people only do when its this and gay people

pro choice can mean you choose to be against abortion

I think OP is a soycialist thats all they do in the politics thread lmao

Late term abortions(without exceptions) are already illegal in america buddy

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial-Birth_Abortion_Ban_Act

Nah I don’t like moderate dems like Manchin, Sinema, Finestein

i love that this is a thread title

Like pro choice is the only term that actually encompasses each side

you can be for it
you can be against it
both are as long as its your choice and sides with your personal beliefs and you worry about yourself

9 states allow for late term abortion with no state-imposed threshold. What are pro-choice folk stance on that?

I’ve never understood how some people can be so black and white in regards to abortion (both sides). I used to try to come to a conclusion by asking when does human life begin? And the only answer I’ve been able to accept is the moment of conception. Choosing any stage after just feels like picking a random arbitrary point.

I’ve now recentered my stance on it as being a matter of suffering. Will getting an abortion reduce suffering and to what extent?

Luckily I ain’t female and it ain’t my body. Ain’t my conscience

edit: someone mentioned viability being a cutoff point after I posted this. That might be my new stance now.

What should dictate public law? In your opinion.

it's religion being in peoples business

pro-life* is a misnomer imo

if you were pro-life you'd be anti-war, pro-universal-healthcare, pro-housing, mental health-care all that stuff that facilitates a better shot at life

i get your 2nd paragraph but fr if you don't think smthn makes sense that doesn't mean it makes no sense to other ppl, so arguing on their behalf (when u don't even think they are a proper group) about how their ideas work is just strange

i dont mean to put you on blast for it, i guess just seeing these kinda threads gets me pissy lol. the "these (insert group of ppl with opposing belief) suck! let's all agree with each other and speak on the other group's behalf while we destroy their arguments that we are making for them" kind of threads

so why did they vote against it?

such a loaded term its ridiculous

another reason why it makes no sense. abortion would be the last thing on your mind

because not everyone agrees with the pro-choice narrative? Get over it. This thread comes off as some entitled privileged ignorance.

we got the beef

I don’t know, I’m not a member of Congress

If you’re go concerned you go call their line if you’re a constituent

I get y’all don’t have any faith in religion but don’t dismiss the fact that the next man does. This is vital!!!!

Just cause you have no connection with a higher power doesn’t make you superior to those that believe they do.

God this site is so pompous

much hypocrisy to be pointed out within the pro-life "movement" as it were, though.
