    I’m a practicing Christian. I also believe in abortion and birth control like I personally invented them. I worked with a gyne who performed them and it’s such a nothing of a procedure. Every pathology report said the same thing “spongy hemorrhagic tissue with no fetal parts”. The fuss is literally over a tiny bit of tissue.

    Nobody should have to be pregnant if they don’t want to, ever.

    Pro life was never about being actually pro life, It’s always been about pro religio, control and power.

    For politicians it was about getting the crazy fundies to support said politicians.

    For the fundies themselves it’s just another step of them applying their religion and control onto everyone else. Their rules apply to you, because you too must be delusional and believe in their particular Easter bunny.

    No fundie or politician ever gave a single frack about women dying due to the removal of abortions. No fundie ever gave a shit about the baby that was actually born and now needed help and funds to grow up. Funds? Money? Frack that shit, we aren’t spending money on babies now, they’re on their own.

    I hate these people, they form the lowest ranks of what humanity has to offer, yet they want to be about to except their control and their rules Mon everyone, frack the consequences.

    Opinions on abortion are strong indicators of psychopathy. Nobody against legal abortion has a functional moral sense. Some are just incredibly morally stupid. Others are religious zombies. But they’re all dangerous and fundamentally animalistic. We can coexist with these creatures, obviously — we already do. But the widespread delusion that they’re just like us has been incredibly dangerous and possibly world-ending. It’s no coincidence they’re the same “people” who support pollution and celebrate ecological depredation.

    It’s almost like the decision to make the lives of actual people less important has consequences.

  • Exclusive analysis finds the rate of maternal deaths in Texas increased 56% from 2019 to 2022, compared with just 11% nationwide during the same time period.

    Curious what the percent change is for just states that didn’t implement abortion-restricting measures is…

        Texas isn’t a small state, population wise. If the rate rose dramatically (55%) for Texas, and similar rates occurred in other abortion banning states, that would likely account for the 11%.

        Anyway, more to the point than just that, the people who care about that nationwide growth already care and are clamoring about it. They’ve been clamoring about it since Roe v Wade was overturned. The other half of the equation could care less about women, and the rising rate is probably making them smile.
