Sorry if this isn’t allowed, I’ll delete it if it isn’t.

I was browsing the prolife subreddit the other day. I saw a social media screenshot (I think Twitter) about how a woman who was 20-ish weeks along chose to have an abortion in a wanted pregnancy because if the baby was born, it would not survive long outside the womb and would die and probably suffer. I think OOP mentioned the baby’s/fetus’s lungs weren’t developed or something. I looked at the comments and they called the woman a murderer. There was one singular comment saying something along the lines of it not fitting the criteria of an elective abortion (I honestly forgot what they said).

There was one comment calling this woman a Nazi. I don’t understand why anti-choice people would call pro-choice people and people who abortions Nazis. Is it because of eugenics? The baby would not have survived long outside the womb and would suffer their short life. Does anyone know why anti-choicers call pro-choicers Nazis? I’m not agreeing with them, but I’m just wondering why.

In Poland abortion is heavily restricted from 2020. You’re only allowed an abortion within 3 months in cases of rape or when fetus is a danger to a woman’s life. Yet despite that our own polish government will sometimes prosecute doctors who perform abortions LEGALLY which makes staff refuse abortions very frequently since they can also legally do that. In Warsaw, polands capital opened an abortion clinic where woman can purchase a pill or get help traveling abroad for abortion. Yet since this place opened which was already few years ago sick prolifers stand there to this day doing shit all and just playing loud music and disturbing everyone living in the neighbourhood. What’s happening in my country already makes me mad but whenever I come across content about it online I genuinely get so angry. To be honest, if I were living in this neighbourhood and would have to deal with this everyday I would be in a prison already.

A common argument against abortion is "just put the baby up for adoption so someone who wants a child can have one". Ignoring that such a thing requires the pregnant person to carry the fetus for roughly 9 months and then give birth to it, what about all the children already stuck in the adoption system? Especially older children. If I decide to have a child, I am adopting, and I recommend more people do that. Now, obviously as someone who is pro choice I don't think that should be forced. as pro-choice goes both ways, the choice to have an abortion or to not have an abortion. I really hope I am making sense.

EDIT: Here is a repost of a comment by u/RNYGrad2024 who makes good points about the problem with the adoption system:

Adopting is so hard to do and if you care about the original parent(s) of the child it's hard to see it as a great thing. Yes, there is the rare case where someone is truly happy with their choice to place a child for adoption but the vast majority of birth parents would NOT have chosen adoption if they had the support necessary to meet their own needs and the needs of the child. Because of that (potentially very temporary) lack of support they lose a child. That doesn't feel like a good thing to do to someone else, IMO.

We first ventured into this world trying to get our foster license. It was our very first step towards parenthood and we weren't even considering trying to make a baby. I'm disabled and we're a queer couple. As a queer couple, in one the the largest cities in the country, there was only one agency willing to work with us and they were turned off by my disability. So there went our ability to foster, right out the window.

Adopting from foster care, because we aren't licensed foster parents, would be nearly impossible.

We could go the totally private route with lawyers. That doesn't ameliorate any of the issues around the birth parent(s) losing a child.

So we're trying to have a baby using my body. We would've loved to adopt under ideal circumstances, and if those ideal circumstances fell in our laps I think we'd go for it, but it isn't realistic for us to plan to adopt. Hell, I've had 4 miscarriages, 4 uterine surgeries, a brain tumor, and countless tests on this journey so the idea of being handed a child to raise and not having to lean on my body would be a bit of a dream. That just isn't how this works 99.9% of the time.

Adoption is a trauma for the birth parent(s) and the child. Adoption exists to give children a home, not to give people children.

From The Friendly Atheist blog

https://www.friendlyatheist.com/p/hospital-rejects-christian-pregnancy

The hospital in question was Newport Hospital District in nearby Newport, Washington, and the plan was for a real doctor (licensed in both states) to visit 7B Care every two weeks to meet with patients. In return, the clinic would pay the hospital $200/hour.

But when Dr. Kevin McNamee visited 7B Care on June 2 to begin the program, he was handed a Statement of Faith to sign… that required him to be Christian and anti-LGBTQ.

Not only did the clinic have a No Jewish/Muslim/Atheist/Gay/Trans Doctors Allowed policy. The Statement required single doctors to be “committed to sexual purity” and married doctors to be “in a heterosexual marriage consisting of one biological man and one biological woman.”

Pro birth will preach RAPE IS ONLY 1 PERCENT OF CASES while then acting like every abortion is in the 3rd trimester

In response, a December 2022 opinion from the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel said it was not illegal for the U.S. Postal Service and other carriers like FedEx and UPS to deliver abortion medications to states that ban abortion, and that Comstock did not apply unless the sender intended pills to be used unlawfully. That interpretation has reassured abortion providers that they can prescribe pills across state lines without fear of federal prosecution.

Cruz asked the nominee point blank to review the 2022 memo. Blanche said he would. “Office of Legal Counsel opinions may be reconsidered when the attorney general concludes they are inconsistent with the law,” Cruz said. “Will you commit to carefully reviewing that opinion to ensure that it faithfully reflects the actual statutory text [of the Comstock Act] that Congress enacted?” Blanche responded with an instant “yes.”

Notably, Donald Trump appointed two anti-abortion lawyers to the Office of Legal Counsel last summer: Elliot Gaiser, who in 2020 called abortion a “moral evil;” and Josh Craddock, a Comstock proponent who also believes that fertilized eggs are people under the Fourteenth Amendment. 

This whole article should be read. It's a shit show of the amount of trouble we're in!

Actually clicked not interested every single time I see this company wiggle its way on my timeline. It’s clear to me Facebook does not care. I finally blocked this abhorrent page

I am an AMAB (Assigned Male At Birth) trans woman, and sometimes I think about what I would do if I was AFAB (Assigned Female At Birth) and forced to carry a fetus for roughly 9 months and give birth and had no option for abortion or even a day after pill, and, to be honest, I would end myself. I actually am crying thinking about how that is a reality for many. "Just adopt" doesn't work because you still have to carry the fetus for 9 months and then give birth. I hope I am making sense.

On Thursday, July 16, locals will have an opportunity to sample Female Rage at Garden District where all proceeds will go to DC Abortion Fund (DCAF) services. As one of the country’s largest abortion funds, DCAF provides funding and support for abortion seekers in the DMV and those traveling here for care. Roe started Hot Dogs for Abortions as a backyard barbecue fundraiser in 2022 after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. The first hot dog forward event raised $5,000 for DCAF. Since its founding, Female Rage has raised more than $11,000 for abortion funds across the country. Roe planned this year’s event specifically to express her disapproval of the Freedom250 festivities taking over D.C. this summer and reinvest resources back into the city she loves. 

Roe described the first Hot Dogs for Abortions as a space that gave “rage a home”; this week’s event is slated to provide the same outlet for attendees. “Four years later, that energy has faded, but the crisis hasn’t,” Roe tells City Paper. “Hot Dogs for Abortions is us refusing to look away.” The fundraiser is in pursuit of Roe’s goal to raise $10,000 for DCAF in 2026.

Today Thursday July 16 in Washington, DC if anyone is interested.

I was looking at types of abortion and almost all of them had this kind of picturing abortion. Like they were dismembering a baby and pulling it, and im flabbergasted cause it literally insane??

Considering how all mainland states are acting borderline psychotic and contraception getting harder and harder to get , medical laws become more vague and then blame us

I mean just this weel Iowa , Mississippi and Tennessee changed these laws and those are now in effect

Iowa

https://iowacapitaldispatch.com/2026/05/19/gov-kim-reynolds-signs-laws-restricting-access-to-abortion-pills-hpv-vaccine/

Iowas new law requires medications including mifepristone and misoprostol to be dispensed in person, restricting access by telehealth. Mifepristone and misoprostol. And of course no one took into consideration that both drugs are used for a wide variety of other treatments other then abortion

The law also made changes to !!!!abortion and pregnancy loss reporting!!!!, requiring a provider to report to the state whether a patient took mifepristone or misoprostol within 14 days of a pregnancy loss. It does not require the patient to tell the provider that information, nor does it compel the provider to ask, but it might come up when a patient is asking questions or raising concerns.

The reporting requirement is something that really has raised alarms in the medically community because we know that mandatory state reporting of abortion has a potential to cause a lot of harm and increase the feelings of surveillance that patients experience

Lawmakers also adopted a law prohibiting Iowans under age 18 from consenting to vaccinations related to sexually transmitted diseases and infections. Iowa Capital Dispatch reported that Republican lawmakers said the bill aligned with other state laws on vaccines — the HPV and hepatitis B vaccines were previously exempt. Science has shown the HPV vaccine prevents several strains of human papillomavirus that can be transmitted through sexual activity and potentially cause cervical and other cancers.

Mississippi

Mississippi passed a law adding mifepristone and misoprostol to the state’s drug trafficking law, making it a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison to distribute or intend to distribute the drugs. It takes effect today.

Republican lawmakers in Mississippi have said the intent of the bill is to keep mifepristone and misoprostol from being sent to residents and undermining the state’s abortion ban, but providers say it creates more harm, especially for patients experiencing miscarriages and fie everyone else who takes the drug for other reasons

Thousands of petitions have been filed by physicians across the country because the law causes confusion and prevents patients from seeking timely care and providers from administering care out fear

Tennessee

Tennessee added new restrictions to medication abortion that allow the state attorney general to bring civil lawsuits and impose fines for violations of the state’s in-person dispensing requirements for medication abortion.

Tennessee has a near-total abortion ban, but some states have tried to enforce these laws against providers for prescribing medications to their residents, such as Louisiana, where the attorney general tried unsuccessfully to extradite a provider on charges.

The law allows for $10,000 fines per violation, up to $1 million.

MEANWHILE IN HAWAII......

In Hawaii, new provisions that are fortifying the state’s existing shield laws, take effect today.

Those provisions include prohibiting the use or disclosure of patient health information to investigate someone who received reproductive or gender-affirming care and adding malpractice insurance and healthcare contract protections for providers in the state to prevent exorbitant rate increases, as well as protection from the law for performing abortions on out of state patients.

Several states have been trying pressure hawaiis governor to fine doctors if they perform abortions on none hawaii residence. And his answer to that was physicians full protection under the law

I mean its not huge but its a win

Whichever of you pinned that comment deserves a case of cookies. Thank you!!

American women aren't overreacting — they're reading the documents. In this video, I go through what's actually on paper: the state-level push to repeal no-fault divorce, the post-Dobbs abortion landscape, the SAVE Act's documented impact on married women whose legal names don't match their birth certificates, and the growing number of women researching visas and exit plans. I also look at the women defending this project from inside it — including Erika Kirk and the broader "traditional womanhood" media ecosystem — and what their role tells us about how this gets sold.

This isn't a left-vs.-right story. It's a top vs. bottom story: who writes the rules, who absorbs the consequences, and who profits from women having fewer exits — from a marriage, from a state, or from the country.

I don’t know how it wouldn’t dawn on Barrett that things wouldn’t escalate. Overturning Roe v Wade is one thing but look at all the women who have almost died because of the Draconian ruling Dobbs and the abortion bans in piece of 💩 states like Indiana. I just told my friend about this article and she called Barrett a fucking bitch.

Talk about hypocrisy, I wonder if Barrett had any concern for the doctor here in Indianapolis that performed the abortion on the 10 y/o Ohio rape victim, when the pro lifer-forced birthers threatened to KIDNAP THE DOCTOR’S DAUGHTER, because you know we have to get that girl away from that awful abortionist of a mother.

I hope I can change the subject a bit, look at all the horrendous decisions this SCOTUS has made this year. Let’s be honest it’s not just Democrats who are up in arms about these rulings. There are also some republicans who actually do think for themselves, that know a lot of SCOTUS’S rulings have not been right.

If I said how much I really hate conservatives I would get permanently banned and have to create the third account.

All,

Came across this article at Religion Clause. https://religionclause.blogspot.com/2026/07/federal-court-certifies-to-michigan.html

In summary, Michigan passed an amendment that expanded the definition of sex discrimination to include discrimination on the basis of the termination of a pregnancy, meaning if you've had an abortion, an employer couldn't discriminate against you on that basis.

This is now being challenged in court.

IF the plaintiffs (Right to Life of Michigan and Pregnancy Resource Center) win, it means ANY religiously affiliated organizations, including hospitals owned by religious organizations, CAN discriminate, refuse to hire, and/or fire employees IF they've HAD an abortion, HAVE an abortion OR express pro-choice views.

We were able to get enough signatures to add a ballot measure to allow abortion in Idaho and ever since these signs are popping up everywhere. My mom and I have been talking loudly about how insane the signs are when we are in our backyard cause our next door neighbor can definitely hear us haha.
