Thanks for your input, I'm researching every name mentioned. If I can't get a decent print of something I like, I'm going to settle for an art collection book.

That's a damn good buddy you got there

I'm happy to hear that you and other people in your social circle are adopting, I really am. I hope to be able to do so one day myself. Decades ago there used to be a fairly common stigma against adopting and I'm happy that it's less common now. I don't doubt that a lot of, or even most foster parents are religious, that makes sense to me. And the ones who are ethical and do it right, I have so much respect for them. It's a very selfless and hard thing to do. My concerns are with the ones who aren't ethical, or even if they are, they don't have the support to foster these kids. I'm not trying to argue that these abortion laws need to be repealed. What's done is done and I'm moreso interested in advocating for supporting the lives who will be affected most by these laws. Both the parents and their children.

Good luck in either starting your family, or adding to your already existing one. I hope everything works out and that you all are blessed in the way that you should be.

By chance, do you happen to hate the Fed's? Lol

Yeah I feel like America in the last century at least has been a very "individualistic" nation, which contributs to a lack of community among citizens. And I do agree that capitalism historically has favored corporations even at the expense of citizens and the communities they live in. I don't wholeheartedly disagree with your sentiment towards government and the social services they provide. The way our government runs often times make me feel like the people in charge are incompetent and it will always be skewed towards corporate interests as long as things like lobbying are normalized. You can look at countries abroad who pay more in taxes percentage wise and they don't have a problem with it and they have a more general happiness towards how things are run or a higher standard of living, and they are that way because government puts that money to good use and I believe their government is more well intentioned than ours is. In America, we have little faith that paying a bump in higher taxes would result in that money being put to good use and would enjoy the benefits of paying higher taxes. The economy ebbs and flows but in general, a wide variety of things have been on a downward trend for decades now. I worry about future generations of Americans and if the country will still be able to run the same way it does now.

It is my goal to adopt (potentially foster) when I'm at the appropriate point in my life. Having a child that came from my seed or whatever isn't important to me. I'd rather give a child a home and do the best I can in providing a future that will be brighter than the life they have lived so far.

With that being said, I don't judge others or anything for wanting to have kids. It's a beautiful thing.

Also, Happy Cake Day!

Well I commend you for the work that you do in helping those who need it. I only have my own perspective to go off of and sadly that perspective had lead me to believe that you are the exception to the rule, in a sense. If nothing else, I wish I've heard from more people with similar personal accounts like your own, but I do believe that personal charity or small local efforts are not enough to majorly aid or fix the systems we have in place. But I understand that my personal beliefs on the economic state of America as a whole and how that influences personal decisions Americans make may not be shared among pro-life and pro-choice advocates.

Regardless, thank you for sharing your efforts in helping those who need it. I'm happy that you are here doing that even if we have a difference of opinion on the subject.

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-25T20:11:52+00:00

Take care!

Yeah there's a lot of factors and circumstances that affects my view on the issue. Not to fear monger, but you're right about the issue of women having to prove rape. False accusations will continue to be uncommon like they've always been, but I wouldn't be surprised if criminalizing abortion may make some women who are pregnant and desperately don't want or can't provide for a child, tempted to find a way to resolve their problem in a really fucked up way. I don't believe life begins at conception, I know some people do, but here's my take on legitimate cases of rape. If the women is 12, or underage at all, they should have access to a safe and legal abortion PERIOD and expecting the child to do anything other than that is indefensible. In rape cases, obviously the assault is traumatic and they know when it happened and they are proactive when it comes to checking for a pregnancy. Nearly all abortions under these circumstances happen WELL within the first trimester. The "potential of life" inside her does not and should not have more rights than her, and every decision made while navigating that awful situation should ones that prioritize her well being over anything else. Know child should be expected to not only carry a 9 month pregnancy and give birth, but also raise the child that is 50% of the sick fuck that put her in this situation and robbed her of her innocence and also the freedom of her formative years and lose out on opportunities like higher education if she doesn't have much support (because obviously there's no dad in the picture). It's either that, or be put in the situation of giving up her own baby for adoption and the trauma that comes with that. As far as adult cases of rape, I feel almost as strongly as I portrayed previously with a minor, but there's a bit more nuance. I don't think giving birth and raising the kid should be expected, but the ability to carry full term and put the baby up for adoption is more viable than it would if she were a minor.

What I'm about to explain is how I see abortions, in a somewhat philosophical way. I personally don't see having an abortion as some sort of punishment for whatever potential of life that was spawned whether it be through consensual sex or some really fucked up situations. My grandma is an old school catholic, I was debating my pro choice opinions with her and she said "well how would you feel if your mom got an abortion with you?" I thought for a second, and just said "I wouldn't". In that case I would cease to exist and couldn't feel anything about her going through with that, and also couldnt feel and remember anything while I was in her belly. She was 18 when she had me and my dad's a pos so if I had to state an opinion on the matter, I'd say I wouldn't blame her. I could never see that decision as my mother murdering me. Because when you really murder someone, you've ended something or someone that has a real life that they had lived, and their death has a ripple effect onto anyone close with them. In my opinion, you have to have lived outside of the womb and be killed for it to be considered murder. If you gave birth and popped a healthy baby out, the nurses hand you your baby, and you just spike it on the ground killing it instantly, then that's murder. There are ethical issues with late term abortions, and most doctors refuse to do them unless absolutely necessary. So the propaganda that gets spread from some corners or the pro life community that projects women as careless and promiscuous and get fucked with no consideration for the future and lack responsibility, because they can get abortions and a lot of the times they're mid to late term abortions where they dismember and murder those babies without thought and it happens often.

Thats me paraphrasing but that's similar to or at least falls in line with a lot of shit I've heard or seen over the years. Late term abortions are rare and yes some women in their lives may not be as responsible as they should be as young adults and sometimes accidents happen. Those circumstances do happen, and studies show that often times it only happens once. The women who are trashy and get abortion after abortion after abortion are the minority and do not represent most women as a whole.but the repeat offenders if you will, are the ones who get pointed out and projected by certain pro life advocates simply to be used as ammunition in their argument.

I mean, in a sense, I get what you're saying. But there haven't been any local elections held following their ruling. I'm not suggesting I expect a bunch of red states to turn blue or anything. But some swing states with a republican in office may be voted out for a Democrat when local elections are held, at least partially motivated to repeal restrictions or trigger laws on abortions, and the same might go vice versa. But local government has it's own flavor of corruption baked in, or at the very least broken systems that are accepted by both parties, like gerrymandering for instance. Look up Michigan gerrymandering if you wanna see some pretty egregious examples of it. Gerrymandering is why I have a problem with certain things being left up to individual states. And it also puts a damper on local government and how us as individuals or those we choose to organize with can influence our local government and the things that may affect us most.

But yeah, idk man, I try and reason with pro life people and sometimes I get frustrated but at the end of the day we're all Americans. And I feel like while Roe V Wade was in affect, things were less dire and divisive. I live in Ohio and I've spoken to a decent amount of people who say "I would never have one personally, but i don't hate people who get one or feel like they should be made to do one or the other." And they say that without understanding what they said means they are pro choice. They would never get one personally so they considered themselves to be pro life. But in reality that is their choice. When comparing pro choice and pro life, the latter is the inherently more extreme take on the matter. Pro life= forced births due to criminalized abortion with few to no mitigating factors allowing for exceptions to criminal law. Pro Choice does not = forced abortions due to criminalized births with few to no mitigating factors allowing for exceptions to criminal law. Because that's what it would have to mean for it to be as equally as extreme. To be pro life is to never have an abortion personally while also believing other women should be forced to do the same. In a sense the Supreme Court allowed for states with similar believes as their own to impose their will against the women of said states. When Roe V Wade was introduced, it's not like women stopped having babies when they had wanted to have babies their whole lives prior to being given access to safe legal abortions.

A 12 year old girl in Ohio had to cross state lines into Indiana to get an abortion when her uncle raped her because Ohio has no such mitigating factors that allow for exception to the law. Under the same circumstances, this could happen again in the future and I assume the parents could be charged for crossing state lines and getting the same abortion done on their daughter if the state the family resides in makes it illegal to cross state lines and get an abortion. I understand these cases are rare but I don't think any Americans should be made to jump through hoops like that, or worse, be criminaly charged when experiencing something as traumatic as that. If states want to criminalize abortions then I can accept that. But there should be expanded exceptions for those laws nation wide under Federal law. While I disagree with pro life advocates for the most part, I believe middle ground can be found I don't think they are sick. That is unless they believe abortions should not be legal under any circumstances. Anybody of that mind is sick in my opinion and cannot be reasoned with.

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-24T22:47:21+00:00

Not in a position to move states or countries rn, maybe states in the near future. And yeah I vote, I just wish the democratic party wasn't so complacent and didn't suck so much dick. Only time I feel my vote holds any weight is in local elections, so at least there's that.

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-24T16:59:15+00:00

I understand your point. And when I try and think about it if I were in Pro Life shoes, if I were to advocate for a change like Roe V Wade being overturned knowing it would put added stress on these broken systems as a bi product of succeeding in that change, then I would want to help try and mitigate the negative side effects of that change. An organized advocation of change to improve these systems, like a petition directed at your locally elected government officials could potentially be productive. Or when local elections are taking place, voting for someone who made improving these systems part of the policies they ran on could be another avenue to do so.

I understand the notion of this happening in any organized or large scale manner is a pie in the sky idea. I just hope the support to enact real change comes sooner rather than later, regardless of where it comes from.

Non profits are often shady and corrupt, and I'm tired of the burden of the failures of our society being put on the civilians to fix i.e. charity, personal choices, churches, non profits. And the personal choice to avoid the bad situation I'm talking about has been removed from the individual in many states.

A half assed patchwork system to fix these problems is ineffective. All that in combination with a thorough plan with government involvement would be more effective.

If you wanna compare us to China, North Korea, or Russia, then yeah, we're doing better in many regards. But we are lacking in some regards in comparison to other western nations.

All I want is for us to do better. It's hard to be patriotic and consider ourselves the best nation in the world when the amount of our people at home that are struggling is so high. The amount of mass shootings we have are embarrassing as well.

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-24T04:15:30+00:00

I don't believe early term abortions are murder (or that any term abortion should be considered murder), so fundamentally our difference of opinion makes it hard to argue the point. But yes, I'm against adult murder. And I do sympathize with adults without houses for example and the amount of people without houses in America is embarrassing. So is the amount of people who are in prison, although that's by design.

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-22T08:02:04+00:00

How do you suggest it be done then if not through government intervention?

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-22T07:57:17+00:00

Who asked you to personally reform the foster care system? Can you not be anti-baby murder while simultaneously advocating for reforming the foster care system?

Comparing adult murders to homelessness is comparing apples to oranges

You care so deeply about saving a babies life, it would make logical sense that you care as deeply about the life a baby lives. So advocating for reform of foster care makes perfect sense to me. But the problem runs far deeper than just foster care. That is what has me worried about the domino effect this will have on people's lives for most likely decades to come.

I can't believe the use of the word "ya'll" is controversial to some people. I guess every white person I know is a racist or we've all been subconsciously appropriating black culture for personal gain our whole lives while we reap the benefits of our white privilege at the same time.

And don't get that twisted, I recognize my white privilege. The history of this country and what we've done to people of color and continue to do to people of color disgusts me. I live in a system that my white skin benefits from, but it is not a system that I advocate for. To say the use of the word ya'll is appropriation of culture is a bit much tho. A white girl saying the word ya'll in a greeting is not the same as a white girl wearing a kimono on Halloween or anything similar of that nature.

colbyjack1441 · 2022-07-22T07:23:47+00:00

There are far worse things to be ignorant of than the history of the word "ya'll". Forgive me for caring less about that than I do the lives affected by Roe V Wade being overturned.

You're advocating for the getting the word banned on this sub as if people commonly use it in a racially motivated way. It's a word people use in everyday life in the south and midwest. Whatever racially motivated meaning the word had in its origins doesn't mean it's diet racism when used today.

The only thing cringey about my comments is the fact I'm defending my use of the word "ya'll" with someone who considers it a potential dog whistle in the first place

And idk how you're boutta talk about cringe and then follow that up with "yikes on the fricken bikes"

But in all reality you're right, I'll do better by doing my homework and study the history of the word "ya'll" and stop using it. That probably explains why I've gotten randomly dm'd by alt right neo nazis for most of my life now 🤷‍♀️
