My classmate was raped on her way back home from university and got pregnant, but couldn’t get an abortion due to the laws. She had to drop out of university where she was studying medicine. Because of pregnancy and childbirth expenses, she couldn’t continue her studies, left college, started working at a coffee shop, lost the fun of her early twenties, and lost the chance to attend international medical conferences she once dreamt of… all just to give birth to a child she never wanted.
People say, “What if the baby you abort grows up and cures cancer?”
Okay — but what if the 19-year-old you deny an abortion to grows up and cures cancer?
Now she can’t afford to get an education. Instead, she has to take care of a baby. What about her? An actual living human being???
“Abortion ends potential life”… So do property disputes, war, and genocide. You only seem to care about lives when women don’t give birth to them.
But they don’t support:
- universal healthcare
- universal childcare
- universal school meals
- paid family leave
- livable wage as a minimum wage
- tuition-free public college
And they cut healthcare and food assistance.
It is genuinely terrifying to be a reproductive aged woman knowing that there are people who believe that God wants you to die from pregnancy complications, and that it’s their God-commanded purpose to pass legislation making it happen.
They’ve overturned Roe.
They’ve criminalized pregnancy in some states.
Arrested women for miscarrying.
They’re making it harder for women to vote.
They shout “repeal the 19th!”
The punishment for abortion is greater than the punishment for rape.
It’s a war on women.
The gynecologist listed in the Epstein files is why the rest of us are losing access to abortions. That's precisely where trump got his 'post-birth abortion' story.
Women are being arrested for miscarrying in states with strict abortion bans.
They don’t charge them with a miscarriage, they charge them with “abuse of a corpse”
What are we supposed to do? Take the fetal remains to the police station?
Pregnancy is not safe in these states.
taylor said she only speaks up on things that matter to her, so this means wishing the Olympic athletes good luck matters more to her than speaking out about genocides and/or the horrible actions of ICE, she’s disgusting.
