Republicans’ Project 2025 plan would leverage virtually every arm, tool and agency of the federal government to attack abortion.

How the hell do birth control pills kill? Do... do they think sperm is alive?

[–] captainlezbian 6 points 1 year ago

They think that the moment a sperm attaches to an egg it’s a living human. That means they think birth control is murder. And beyond that many believe that attempting to prevent pregnancy without not having sex is immorally defying their God’s will and that that should be a punishable offense.

Republicans are a clear and present danger.

There are no "good ones", not a one.

I called it back when roe was overturned. I knew they would come after birth control next.

Fun fact, hormonal B.C. pills have other uses outside of birth control, in fact were originally intended for a purpose that isn't birth control.

I have endometriosis and get lots of ovarian cysts. My birth control is the only thing that prevents those conditions from absolutely ruining my life.

To what end? How is blocking birth control at all beneficial to them? It's unpopular, and serves no purpose. It's counterproductive to their stated goals, and makes no sense.
