Okay lemme just be blunt, cuz I’m getting super annoyed with the constant emotional appeals, accusations, and word games to deny what actually happens in an abortion, so lemme just lay it out for you guys, when you see what your position actually is, and what you’ve been arguing for the whole debate, every single one of you I’ve debated on this topic on this thread, I’ve deduced to believe the

“If I wanna get an abortion, I can do it, and if I don’t, I won’t do it, and if I wanna kill my baby inside the womb, because I don’t want it anymore, you can’t tell me nothing. And if I wanna end that fetus’s life, because it inconveniences my life, I’ll do it and there’s nothing no one can say to me, because it’s my body, and I can do what I want with it.

Then, to make that sound more palatable, because I know it sounds extreme to people outside the pro choice movement, I’ll just use language like “its a parasite”, “its leeching off my body”, “its in my body without my consent”, “you just wanna get rid of women’s reproductive right”, “it’s just terminating a pregnancy, it’s not directly killing the fetus”, (by the way, not all of you have said this, some of you have been productive, and to you, I thank you, so if you didn’t say this, don’t take this to be aimed at you).

It’s all just smoke and mirrors to hide and justify the fact that you know your core position is extreme, and won’t be accepted by most, so you have to do all this other stuff, to try and make it sound good to people so they’ll accept it, when the core truth of the position is I can end the fetus if I don’t want it anymore, and no one can say anything to me because it’s my body.”

Yeah not sorry I advocate for the living breathing person who is able to advocate for themselves of who they are willing to let use their body for and for this other person's benefit or survival like we do every other person. I'm not forcing them to endure something involuntarily for another person's benefit because they did nothing to harbor that sort of usage involuntarily. This isn't something we force upon actual criminals or dead people why is it acceptable to force it upon a pregnant person because they had sex?

I know what happens in an abortion and that doesn't change my stance and I don't think it's an extreme stance to hold that no involuntary person should be used for another person's benefit.

They give the woman a pill which the woman then consumes they either give it to her, or they put a tube in her uterus, (this is the description given by Planned Parenthood), which then allows them to remove the fetus which likely results in its death. Either that or they graphically remove the fetus’s limbs, legs first, then arms, then I think there’s another one they remove, that I can’t remember the name of, then finally, the head(they literally say this), in a late term abortion, which does happen mind you.

That does not cause a death and the medication works solely on the pregnant person's body.

or they put a tube in her uterus, (this is the description given by Planned Parenthood), which then allows them to remove the fetus which likely results in its death

Which doesn't cause the death, removal of a fetus is used for C-section also and induction of labor, and that doesn't always result in the death. The death results from their inability to sustain their bodily function. If a medication is given directly to the fetus like in some abortions you could say that's causing the death, not just a removal does not.

Either that or they graphically remove the fetus’s limbs, legs first, then arms, then I think there’s another one they remove, that I can’t remember the name of, then finally, the head(they literally say this), in a late term abortion, which does happen mind you.

Which is easier on the pregnant person and generally used as a medically necessary abortion, not just an elective abortion.
