Because only fetuses have the right to life, liberty and happiness. Because you know, people with uteri might not want or desire this for themselves, like… ever.

When you really think about it…

That’s interesting, because last I checked, fetuses weren’t capable of depriving their mothers of their rights to life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness. They also aren’t capable of killing anyone or bringing themselves into existence, so there goes that theory.

If you don’t like a comparison, you should refute it with logic instead of carelessly throwing around words like ‘racist.’

Okay so here’s a few exampes of how fetuses do this:

Life: Childbirth is 14x more dangerous than abortion. Childbirth kills women* every single year. Oh I forgot, you don’t care about the fact that THOSE are lives too.

Liberty: Are you saying that the fourteen year old rape victim who gets pregnant is ‘free’ when she is forced to give birth to her rapists child? Sounds pretty opressive to me.

Persuit of Happiness: The majority of women* who get an abortion report feelings of relief. And nearly every woman* who is turned away and denied abortion say they wished they had recieved the abortion. Sounds like the women* getting abortions are actually happier than the women* who seek one and are denied.

I try using logic but frankly you ignore everything anyone actually says and whine about how you’re not really a racist for compring a group of people who can feel, understand and are autonomous to fetuses. Fetuses who are non-autonomous, can’t feel pain and can’t understand anything.

You are almost directly saying people of colour can not understand things or feel pain or emotions and that they are not sentient when you compare them to fetuses. That’s racist.

That was an interesting read. But you didn’t really need to spend all that time typing, because you still didn’t prove a single point.

“here’s a few exampes of how fetuses do this:”

Life: Your example does not explain how the fetus is responsible for their mother’s loss of life, because death by childbirth is never the unborn child’s fault.

Liberty: Your example does not explain how the fetus is responsible for their mother’s loss of liberty because conception due to rape is never the unborn child’s fault.

Pursuit of Happiness: Your example does not explain how the fetus is responsible for their mother’s loss of happiness, unless you’re saying that it’s okay for a child to die for the sake of their mother’s happiness? “Whatever makes mommy happy?”

No, you’re trying to justify killing the fetus. If you were using logic, you would understand that in comparing abortion to the Pacific slave trade, I am not minimizing the suffering of one group. I’m just refusing to erase the suffering of the other. (The reason this bothers you is because, in order to have a clean conscious, you have to erase the suffering of the latter. You can’t acknowledge that the unborn are people, because then your religious dedication to abortion becomes abominable.)

In short, I’m not being racist; you’re being ageist. But thanks anyway for taking this time to talk with me and spread the truth about abortion by reblogging my post. 🙂

Have a great night!
