@Metaright "Until both sides start addressing each other's actual arguments"

Really, no.

The entire anti-abortion thing has been wrought from nothing, for the express purpose of working up conservative voters. Like the anti-drag thing, the anti-'woke' thing, etc.

The 'actual' argument on the forced birther side comes down to whether a person capable of being pregnant has bodily autonomy. That side completely denies this. You simply can't have a rational argument with people who want you dead, injured, or tied to a life with children you don't want and/or can't afford. Who think scooping out a clump of cells with no independent thought or existence is worse than an 8 year old being forced to bear a child to term, an adult dying of sepsis or giving birth to a 'baby' incapable of survival or a life free from pain and severe disability.

Their argument basically comes down to "Kinder, Küche, Kirche". Keep women barefoot, pregnant, and uneducated.

Don't you dare to try and both sides this.

@Metaright "The way to sway a pro-lifer, then, is to demonstrate that a fetus doesn't have personhood."

No, first you have to persuade them that the life of the fetus bearer is worth something more than being an incubator.

Which you will never do.

People who are anti-abortion fanatics may or may not believe that a fetus is a baaaaaby, really. But what they really do not believe in is the personhood of the placenta owner.

And until you find a way to convince them that a real, living, breathing human being with feelings and rights who already exists independently has rights, including that to life unburdened by an unwanted pregnancy for any reason, you won't convince them of anything else.

@ChrisFhey A very handsome void :)

@xuxebiko buy NFTs, of course :)

@StopMassDownvotingYouIdiot I just don't know why people behave like this :

@DoucheAsaurus belly ❤️

@Zagorath "Psst, you messed up the URL"

thanks, fixed :)

@Ertebolle "The tooth regrowth medicine is intended for people who lack a full set of adult teeth due to congenital factors. "

So, not likely to solve the problem of tooth loss through lack of dental care :(

@wave_walnut @rhythmisaprancer @livus

@Col3814444 who's surprised? :(

@ObM I like them and post them. What would be nice though if if you could post it in the body of a new article with a bit of context about the value/interest, rather than just post it as a link. How you do it is up to you though :)

@ObM terrifying :(

@thedavemiester that was a particularly exciting Sunday night, clearly :(
