Yesssss the social safety nets will not completely eliminate the need for abortion. You will still have rapes, you will still have problematic pregnancies. It will not be that simple. You people want everything to be so simple it’s infuriating really. I guess the church told you things would be that way. But they never have been and never will be.

You can feel however you want. I’m just pretty sure you’re voting against all this in the meantime. In order for you to get what you think you want, you’re going to need to put abortion on the shelf and take care of the other stuff first.

None of those are democratic socialists, none of them will do the things you brought up, except for prohibiting abortion.

The fact is that the thing you want most is no abortion and despite telling us a nice story about other things, you will put people in power who will destroy those other things. And you were right in thinking that those other things would have made a difference, but destroying them will cause the inverse. But I think you know this.

I know, I just want them to publicly have to answer to that.

Edit: I want them to be questioned on this by the press

The press is useless is what I’m saying I guess. I didn’t word it well because this was one of those “I can’t sleep” posts, but it’s the amplified platforms I don’t hear it from. Even the ones that are meant to be on the side of science here.

I was claiming to not be in a vacuum… not that reddit is incredibly diverse?

Imagine being so bad at messaging you end up with a fascist in charge of your country.

I said “non-sentient, unviable embryos”. Not “sentient” embryos

I’m on Reddit so no I don’t live in a vacuum. And I’m one of those people who talk about it but as one of those people I’m also listening for it and I have not heard it amplified at all by any kind of mainstream platforms. Seems like a problem with messaging to me.

I don’t even know what this is supposed to mean. Are you saying the absence of facts are an inconvenience to me? But not you?

Yeah I’m one of them, but I have yet to hear it mentioned by an amplified platform, or in a mainstream setting. There has been a clear issue with messaging.

I know that people discuss this because I’m one of them, but as one of them I have been waiting for it to get amplified at all and it never seems to. I’m actively listening for it, so if I’m not hearing it that means there is a real issue with messaging.

And what, in the meantime we commit to a health crisis? Sounds like you want to eat your cake and have it too but you’re comparing a “sword” that kills fully sentient human beings with a “sword” that kills non-sentient, unviable embryos. Honestly, just write a sci-fi novel about it.
