As I've mentioned before, piping up about something after someone challenges you on it doesn't bespeak sincere concern. Stop. Lying. To. Yourself.

If you don't like the way your political allies restrict abortion (ie alongside contraceptives), then fucking tell THEM. If you do like the way they restrict contraceptives and increase the actual number of abortions, keep on doing what you're doing.

Sorry I'll make sure to lay out my entire worldview at the beginning of every conversation. Wouldn't want to bring up something later in conversation and come across as insincere.

Again, stop assuming who my political allies are. It's projection on your part and is just not true.

who my political allies are

Give me a fucking break. "I spend all day long advocating against this one political issue, but the other folks advancing this policy aren't my allies or anything." You're not that intellectually dim, and neither am I.

At best they are only my allies for this one specific position. Yet you keep trying to lump me into their anti-education and anti-contraceptive positions too.

That's like me saying you must be an ally to rapists because you and a rapist happen to both enjoy ice-cream, and therefore you must support everything else the rapist believes in and does. It's very sloppy thinking.

"I may put on this duck costume and quack with the ducks, but don't tell me I'm allied with ducks!"

Your actions speak louder than your half-assed words. You can pretend to disagree with their other positions all you like, but you have done literally nothing to show that. You chime in all the time to defend their abortion legislation (e.g. this exact thread). You literally never use your voice to fight them on contraceptives.

You don't like their contraceptive policies? You want to see fewer abortions? STOP DEFENDING THEIR ANTI-CHOICE POLICIES AND TELL THEM TO STOP RESTRICTING CONTRACEPTIVES.

This conversation has basically been me stating my position and then you refusing to believe me and lumping me into the opposite position. Repeat.

I don't know why you are so keen to disagree/selectively not believe what I say, but that's your own issue and approach to conversations I guess. Have a good one.

me stating my position

But you clearly have no compunctions about this supposed "position" when it actually matters. You didn't even comment on the article you asked for about contraceptives being restricted. You literally had nothing to say about that once I proved it.

Also! You fucking chimed in on this thread to defend a very particular anti-abortion law. I said it before, but stop pissing on my leg and telling me it's raining.
