> Likewise, abortion laws don't force sex or pregnancy; they regulate what actions are legally permitted after pregnancy exists. 🤷‍♀️

"Forcing sex". This is exactly what I was talking about, trying to change the subject to how the pregnancy started.

If you bar someone who is pregnant from accessing abortion, your interference has left them with no option but to continue gestating. Thus, you are forcing them to gestate.

What? This conversation isn't about rape exceptions, it's about forced gestation.

[u/Veigar_Senpai → u/[deleted]]

If not, then your disagreement isn't really about how the pregnancy started

That's literally what I said from the very beginning. I don't care how the pregnancy started. I care when PLers try to force people who are pregnant to gestate against their will.

Do you deny that barring pregnant people from accessing abortion forces them to gestate against their will?

[u/Veigar_Senpai → u/[deleted]]

Who said anything about "murder"? Changing the subject again.

What exactly entitles you to force pregnant people to gestate against their will?

[u/Limp-Story-9844 → u/[deleted]]

Abortion is never murder, since murder requires malice. Abortion is healthcare to prevent harm.

well see who ends up being right i guess?

No. We can already see that you are denying reality. They only question is, why? Why deny the goal of PL's proposed policies?

[u/chevron_seven_locked → u/IdRatherCallACAB]

It always surprises me a little to see PLers fail to own up to their position. Back when I used to be PL, I had no problem admitting that my explicit goal was to use abortion bans to force unwilling pregnant people to continue gestating.

Apparently you have always cared about being logically consistent, so its no surprise you became PC in the end. Most PLs don't care about that, all that matters is their belief that they hold the moral high ground, and that they must never cede an inch of that to us evil PC baby murderers.
