“i’m okay with abortion if it’s from incest”
break down how they goes. a 12 year old is repeatedly SA by their father, they get pregnant, they tell their mother, their mother says they’re lying. it’s their word against their fathers. nobody believes them.
i’m sorry but the “i’m okay with abortion if it’s from rape or incest” argument is laughable.
pls explain how that goes. do we need a guilty verdict before abortion? just an accusation? a trial? good thing rape cases are notoriously executed with accuracy and swiftness !!
Yes delete your period app. But also don’t arrange rides for people to get abortions on Facebook. Don’t google “where to get an abortion” if you live in Texas. Don’t go to a protest unmasked. The privacy violations that are coming go so much deeper than period apps.
the anti-choice crowd is frothing at the mouth to mommy shame, show disgust and disappointment to young unwed mothers, shit talk single parent households, and everything in between 💕

I said to my wife "Do you think anyone will commit suicide because they could not get an abortion?"
She instantly replied "yes."
Then she added "there will be all those boyfriends and husbands that murder them because they couldn't get one too" and that shook my fucking world.
I had my miracle baby girl. Fast forward to 2021 after moving to Texas. I had another miscarriage and was told I could not get a D&C. I had to prove multiple times that I did indeed miscarry, was treated like garbage for every miscarrying. During my time of grief, I had to FIGHT
I had a miscarriage in Washington State in 2018 and could not naturally miscarry so needed a D&C- aka an abortion. Was necessary to have before going septic. After finding out I lost the baby, I went 2 days later and had a SAFE D&C done in a hospital with my OB. 2 years later
When “life” begins or whether you personally would seek abortion is irrelevant.
The reality is there’s not an answer. People who are pregnant go from healthy & stable to coding in a blink. Waiting until life threatening emergencies occur WILL kill people.
Savita Halappanavar is a prime example, but there are (and will be) thousands of others.
If you feel solace in “life of mother” exceptions, their propaganda has worked.
How almost dead must your wife be before acting? Where exactly is the line? Life is *always* more at risk in pregnancy. How close to dying must your daughter be before her doctor can help?
Women trying to withhold sex to avoid pregnancy will just be met with more violence and thats a scary thought.
constitution says u can't kill babies unless it's with a gun
The road to fascism is lined with people telling you to stop overreacting.
Your friendly local Muslim & lawyer here to remind you Sharia permits abortion up to 120 days, for rape/incest, when fetus is non-viable,& to save the mother’s life—as a decision between a woman & her Dr
Stop using our faith as your punchline—This is 100% ‘Christian’ nationalism

jewish law requires an abortion if the fetus is threatening the mother’s life. “religious freedom” in america only ever applies to the white christian masses.
Clarence Thomas writes, in a concurring opinion, that the Supreme Court should reconsider Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell — the rulings that now protect contraception, same-sex relationships, and same-sex marriage.
overturning roe v wade in the middle of a housing crisis, a formula shortage and a mass shooting epidemic in a country without free healthcare. it’s not pro-life. it’s not smart. it’s dystopian.
The difference between now and the last time that abortion was illegal in the United States is that we live in an era of unprecedented digital surveillance.
a thread of abortion resources in light of this horrifying scotus decision

"Leave it up to the states" was also the pro-slavery argument in the 1800s.
I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it a thousand times: The treatment for an ectopic pregnancy, a septic uterus, or a miscarriage that your body won’t release is abortion. If you can’t get those abortions, you die. You. Die.
If you’re against abortion, don’t get one.
If you’re against contraception, don’t take any.
If you’re against same-sex relationships, don’t have one.
If you’re against same-sex marriage, don’t marry someone of same gender.
Do not impose your beliefs & religion on all Americans.
To everyone having an abortion today, please know you’re so deeply loved and supported. ♥️
If you're stocking up on abortion pills today, a tip: often they come in kits with one mife pill and 4 miso. The miso will expire before the mife -- the mife can last up to 5 years. And miso is somewhat easier to track down. So dont throw away the whole kit if the miso expires.
a massive fuck you to every influencer who spent the last year demonizing and fear mongering birth control to their audience.
i’m so tired of abortion rights being framed around truly tragic circumstances like assault and incest. if you get pregnant & you don’t want to be pregnant, it is your right over your own body that is under siege. no one, including a fetus, can use your body against your consent.
Republicans have only won one popular vote in the last 34 years. Democratic Senators represent 40 million more voters than Republican Senators. Doesn’t matter. We have 6 conservative Supreme Court monarchs who call all the shots. This is not what functional democracy looks like.
You are allowed all your grief and despair but I promise you there are systems in place to help: with funding, with travel, with obtaining pills. People have been building this for years. It works. And every one of us can do something to make those systems more robust.
Forced birth in a country that doesn’t have mandatory maternity leave or universal healthcare…
Let’s be 100% clear. If Republicans win control of the House, Senate and White House two years from now, they will pass a national abortion ban. And no matter where you live, no matter how pro-choice your state is, women and doctors will be locked up for practicing health care.
this is so fucking depressing
Overturning Roe and outlawing abortions will never make them go away.
It only makes them more dangerous, especially for the poor + marginalized.
People will die because of this decision. And we will never stop until abortion rights are restored in the United States of America.
