Honestly it’s absolutely shocking that there are anti-abortion women at all tbh but it’s also in the same country where half the country wants to elect an inept treasonous convict
there are a lot of women in jeebus camp who’ve been indoctrinated since birth to do what they’re told by men. they argue that it frees them of the ‘burden’ of thinking for themselves and making their own decisions. because the belief that those things are too much work for a woman is part of the indoctrination
As a relatively indecisive person (after I found out about Lemmy it took me around two years to decide on an instance to sign up to), I totally get the zen of not having to make your own decisions.
What I don’t get is wanting to force my choice on others.
letting someone else decide for you IS a decision (which you’re 100% free to make), but it has consequences just like any other decision. maybe it’s easier to just blame someone else for everything that goes wrong–i could never live that way
A lot of working class men and enbies are taught to think that way too when it comes to questioning Capital or the government. Most people want to avoid pain and effort. If society tells them that taking responsibility for their own lives is painful, they won’t do it. Look at how many people “hate talking about politics”. It’s learned helplessness. They don’t want to be involved in making the decisions that affect their lives. They want a strong person to do it for them. That’s why fascism is able to fester.
How many of these anti abortion politicians have sent their mistresses out of state for abortions, probably even pressuring or coercing them using their more advanced legal, financial, and social standings?

And if these women had an ectopic pregnancy they’d be the first in line to abort it while denying that right to other women.

Rich people know that they are exempt to most rules and sometimes they just want to impose them on others.

Need babies for war
Well, a lot of women think life begins at conception, not at birth. And yeah, complications happen, but that’s life.
