    Also the equivalent extreme to the anti choice side would be “everyone is forced to have abortions” which while something close has been done (namely via population control methods and eugenics) those are widely agreed upon by the pro choice side to be similarly evil to prohibiting all abortions for the same reason (denial of bodily autonomy). In fact, in the modern day the eugenicists typically vote for the same parties as the ones wanting to prohibit abortions.

      Thanks for getting it.

      From a couple of the other replies here, I was starting to feel gaslight; I was starting to feel ilithiophbia.

      Yep. Same basic political philosophy of them telling others what to do, what they can do, what they can’t do, who they can be, who’s allowed to be, etc…
