Pro-choice is in the middle of the spectrum. The opposite of pro-life is the belief that people should be required to have abortions

It is possible to genuinely believe that abortion is equivalent to murder. I don’t see how you jump from there to them being anti-life.
I was against abortion myself when I was younger. But even if you see it as murder, at some point you should realize the situation isn’t black and white and there are situations where abortion makes sense. A friend of my sister is having an abortion because the fetus has a rare condition where it’s intestines are growing on the outside and it won’t live long anyway if born. I would think most sensible people would at least be okay with abortion in situations like that. Why make a baby be born to suffer and die immediately?
Also, it would be nice if so called “pro-life” people supported helping the child stay alive after they’re born, like accessible food and healthcare for everyone
Because outlawing abortion can and will cause deaths. For example, if you have an ectopic pregnancy, that’s life threatening.
Or what if you don’t want to have the child of a rapist? It feels like you’re being invaded, and you don’t want a child growing up without love. And abortion clinics aren’t present because of stupid reactionaries, so trenchcoat it is.
Or what if you simply cannot afford to raise a child right now, and anticonception fails? Then abortion is necessary.
Anti-choice is murder. Has society not failed when a clump of cells has more rights than a full grown person?
They claim to protect “the vulnerable”, but anti-abortion harassers (I reject calling them activists) don’t support your right to decide what to do with your body. And that makes you vulnerable.
If abortion is murder because fetuses are people, then fetuses are responsible for being up the snatches of people who don’t want them there
That doesn’t make any sense.
Yeah, I forgot the first word. Fixed!
The fetus simply cannot be responsible for that. It didn’t exist when the decisions were made to create said fetus.
Responsibility isn’t about who caused it in the past, it’s about who can fix it in the present.
So therapist is responsible for rape - not the rapist?
A rapist can say sorry and work on self-improvement. I’ve been abused and my abusers could do a lot more to help my mental health than my therapists have done. So many of my issues would be resolved if my abusers said they were sorry and helped unfuck the parts of my life they took a dump on. Trump could confess to diddling Epstein’s child sex slaves and go to jail and I bet it would do so much to help those girls.
