You lit a blue touch paper and then left the area
Now you return and attack two posters who’ve actually agreed with - as @MrsRobinsonsHandprints has pointed out - the basic thrust of your opinion
You’ve then resorted to sloppy insults by describing one of them as a keyboard warrior which is just asinine
There are lots of women on this thread @Branleuse
@ManifestDestinee
Being two of them whom you’ve singled out for criticism, who are actually championing a woman’s right to make this choice regardless of whether you or others consider then “unkind “ or “callous” in the process. They are upholding your point of view!
I would say to you that there’s been others on this thread you could pick out amongst when hyperbole such as “murder” “these sort of women” “ end the pregnancy hand the child over” and even at some point a analogy with late abortions being akin to Hitlerian practice. you can easily find more yourself. To me this is unkind: moral projections upon those who have or agree with acting within the confines of the law that upholds women’s bodily autonomy. That is unkind it’s also regressive. I’d tackle that first if I were you.
Being matter of fact and stating facts is not unkind. Those posters have no need to defend themselves. Especially not to you who started this thread because you believe exactly the same thing they have written.
There is no grey area here. It is either legal or illegal. Nobody has dismissed this process or said it’s a cake walk just because it’s legal. I understand that to women who had to end a much wanted pregnancy after 24 it is a life changing heartbreak. By reminding the thread - not the individual women as far as I am aware - that an unborn child is not a baby that legally it is a foetus, however is the basis by which women were able to end suffering and do the most selfless thing possible. In the midst of huge personal trauma and grief they had choice and dignity which as women we should fight with every fibre of our being to always uphold. For all of us. For any of us.
. Derailing this legal discussion to unpick whether someone is being unkind or not does not help women who are faced with this nightmare one jot. Reminding people we can do it if we absolutely have to most certainly is. Legal rights allow us as women from having to explain or defend our choices or dilute our words. I’m pretty certain the women who have had to endure this experience are on the same page as those you now suddenly don’t find favour with in that regard.[/quote]
