How long until the religious bring back burnings at the stake?

[Anonymous]

With recent political recessions, giving religious schools access to public funds and removing the rights of women as equal citizens, I’m curious how long it’ll take before the religious folks bring back witch burning and open endorsement of child rape/brides.

What rights were taken away from women?

The right to abort a baby? That’s not in the Constitution. So SCOTUS said it’s a decision left for the individual states. That’s all the ruling was. So abortion isn’t illegal. It’s not. You can still go abort a baby.

So again, what rights were taken away from women?

Equal rights to one’s own body

[Opinion Owner]

What does that even mean? You have a right to your body. No one took that away.

[Asker]

If someone can force you to act as a host for a fetus against your will, you do not have the right to your own body…

[Opinion Owner]

Again, no one is forcing anyone. You can still go get an abortion tomorrow if you wanted. It isn’t illegal.

So what rights were taken away from women?

[Asker]

You realize that removing the federal right to abortion now means that a lot of states are going to permanently ban the process? Making it, get this, illegal.

You took away the right of a woman to control her own body… I don’t know how much simpler I can make that.

[DryGermanGuy]

I would say, burnings were more an European thing. In America it would be public lynchings! 🤔

[JustAnj]

Your overthinking this. Your also ignoring how much abortion is just a codependency on the government to not take accountability.

If you want more support as a woman look to your fellow women who want you to better your life without decreasing your natural instincts.

[Asker]

So women don’t deserve equal rights to their body?

[Anonymous]

How exactly am I not an "equal citizen" now? We had the guaranteed right to be the only one who can determine our own future and now we don't. Men never had that right to begin with, so I fail to see how I am less equal now.

[Anonymous]

Removing the rights of women as equal citizens? How exactly did they do that?

[Asker]

Removing someone’s right to determine what happens to their body?

Forcing a person to become an incubator against their will?

Saying that women have less rights to their body than a fetus has to the woman’s body?

[Opinion Owner]

None of that has anything to do with "women as equal citizens". Do you really need me to explain why?

[Asker]

Do you not understand the definition of inequality? Do you really need me to explain what it is?

[Opinion Owner]

Men have never had the right to an abortion, nor have they ever had the right to choose whether or not they want to become a parent. "Equality" is not a relevant term in the context of equality.

[Opinion Owner]

*context of abortion

[Asker]

That does not address the issue. If it’s alright to force women to be incubators, then by that logic it should also be legal to take organs from people without their consent, or use them for scientific experiments, without their consent. However, those things are illegal- so why is there a hypocrisy? Why do women who are pregnant matter less than everyone else?

[Asker]

If you aren’t being given the same rights as other citizens, then you aren’t considered equal… that’s the definition sweetie.

[Opinion Owner]

Only women had the right to kill their own child. No one else had that right. Taking away that right has made them equal with men.

See how stupid that sounds? Trying to make abortion rights about "equality" is pure feminist dishonesty.

[Asker]

:/ and the point went straight over your head

[Opinion Owner]

Not in the least; I knew exactly what you were trying to say, it was just pure bullshit. Your argument that "equality" has any relevance whatsoever in the argument over abortion rights holds no water. It's typical "feminist logic" and typical feminist misuse of the term "equality". You are a great example of why people laugh when feminists say their movement is just about equality. It's pure comedy.

[Asker]

So you don’t think that women deserve equal rights to their bodies, good to know 👌

[Opinion Owner]

So you don't think everyone deserves equal rights when it comes to choosing whether they want to become a parent. Good to know.

[Asker]

Never even mentioned that, but good job trying to deflect :)

It’s okay if you don’t think women deserve equal rights. Just be honest and say that, you don’t need to keep hiding behind some flowery language hun. When you decide to actually answer my question, feel free to do so.

[Opinion Owner]

Of course you never mentioned it, because you know it shows the issue of abortion has nothing to do with equality.

Flowery language? Lol, sorry if any of this confuses you. Since you're having such a difficult time with comprehension, I'll make it simple for you. I absolutely believe men and women should have equal rights, which is why I support the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

[Opinion Owner]

And when both men and women are given equal rights in choosing whether they want to become a parent, I will support reinstating Row v. Wade. Again, because I support equality.

[Anonymous]

How have you lost your rights as an equal citizen? That makes no sense.

[msc545]

Air pollution laws will prevent this.

I see the liberal melt down has begun in earnest.
