      We all know you’re full of shit, but just in case you’re a useful idiot to conservatism instead of cynical grifter…

      If you want fewer abortions, the answer has been obvious for decades — sex ed and birth control made available to everyone that wants it, which results in fewer unwanted pregnancies, which results in fewer abortions.

      Your moron political group and its insistence on overturning Roe resulted in an increase in abortions. 2023 had the highest number and rate in literally decades. So if you’re dumb enough to think that’s “murdering babies,” then congrats. The people you vote for increased the body count.

        If I were pregnant (and presumably had a uterus) I would probably be more likely to seek an abortion knowing that there is now a greater chance I would die giving birth then before.

        Before: ok every pregnancy is risky as well as birth there is a small but possible chance things could go badly for me but medical science will do what is required for me to survive including ending the pregnancy even at the last second.

        Now: if I need an abortion later I won’t be able to get one and will die. I better go to a state where it is legal and get it done now.

          If you’re going to speak for all conservatives, you’re also going to take responsibility for all of their beliefs and decision-making, like the desire to outlaw contraceptives. If you don’t want that, don’t speak for others.
