When it comes to the topic of abortion, it seems like neither side gets it right.
Let’s start with the left. When you have an abortion, you destroy a potential life so stop saying that it’s empowering when a woman has an abortion because that’s like a cop saying that it’s empowering to shoot a criminal. Also, stop with this late term bullshit. You claim that the fetus isn’t developed enough to be considered a human being yet you also have no problem with terminating the life of a fetus that’s capable of surviving outside of the womb. Not to mention, stop requesting that we use our taxdollars to pay for your abortion, that’s no better than Trump asking to use our taxdollars for his multibillion dollar wall that won’t even keep many people out. Finally, stop claiming that “birth defects” are a legitimate reason to have an abortion. Ableism like that really pisses me off because people with disabilities deserve the same rights as everyone else yet it’s considered perfectly acceptable to abort a child for having down syndrome or autism.
Now onto the right. Abstinence is a failure, stop trying to convince people to abstain from sex. Instead, we should have comprehensive sexual education classes and should be encouraging people to wear protection if they want to have sex and making condoms and birth control easy to get. People are going to do it and by only teaching abstinence, you’re going to end up with lots of young mothers panicking and getting abortions because they don’t know what else to do. Also, i don’t think it’s fair to compare abortion to murder because while both are morally wrong, abortions are done for different reasons. We should be trying to ensure that no woman wants an abortion but with the way you’re going, it’s no wonder so many women are getting abortions becuase your proposals are shit.
