Miscarriage/abortion threads

I don't know if it's my imagination but there seems to have been a massive increase in miscarriage/termination threads popping up in the last couple of days. Anyone else noticed this?

I have noticed but just wondered if maybe I'm noticing it more due to the Roe v Wade thing being in the news.

CandyLeBonBon · 25/06/2022 22:25

I'm wondering if the wade vs roe situation is what's driving it. Call me cynical but there's been a LOT more trolling on here recently.

You might be right
Agreed, the trolling on here has been shocking since the update

Yes, there are dozens of threads full of made-up scenarios and trolly crap. I’ve been hiding them like whack-a-mole apart from a couple of discussions on FWR, and they’re not immune from it either.

CandyLeBonBon · 25/06/2022 23:05

Whack a mole describes it perfectly!

Tricky isn’t it. Definitely a lot more “my abortion was the worst thing ever” threads, heartbreaking if true but the caveats about being pro choice buuuut and the reality being completely different to what they were told definitely support a troubling agenda.

SpinningTheSeedsOfLove · 25/06/2022 23:15

Absolutely. It’s really obvious we’re getting riddled with posters announcing they’re ‘pro choice’ but ooooh, babies and the serenity of the incubation blah blah

Afternoon, Candy, and others. We've definitely had a couple of quite persistent trolls recently and these are topics they posted about, which we deleted. They were very obvious troll threads though, so perhaps not what you're talking about here.

If you ever have concerns about whether a thread is genuine do just hit the report button. We're always happy to take a look at anything like that. We'll keep an extra eye out for threads on these topics though, so thank you for raising it.
