I love this post so much.

Pro-life is just what they called themselves because anti-abortion sounded negative. They rebranded themselves in doublespeak, as always.

Legal abortions prevent illegal abortions, which can often go wrong & cause immeasurable suffering for the woman & aborted foetus, or baby.

finally some brought in the axlotl tanks. they were the source of the Honoured Matres and they were more badass than the Bene Gesserits. ->
ArkoneAxon
No, they weren't more badass. What they were, was more cruel, angry, and vengeful. With VERY good reason. Especially towards the Tleilaxu.
agreed but I couldn't fit it all in my statement. merci. but I hope some of the Repubs have read enough herbert to know what they're into.
keep this anti abortion shit up and you're going to find out a lot earlier that they did in the Dune books.

The only thing I have against abortion is when it is used simply as a means for birth control. There are way too many options out there 1/2
To prevent pregnancy. Even though nothing is 100 percent effective, still. Also, make the US adoption process easier and less expensive.

It would be solvable if people would learn to be aware of the problem and how to question theirselves constantly.
No system that relies on people being less fallible will ever work.
That's true. But a proper education on information proccessing would help.

This isn't true. My wife and I were republican for our entire lives. We are 40 now. We were raised republican and never questioned it. 1/
I shifted blue during the Trump presidency and have shared a lot of stuff, like this, with my wife and her mom over the past couple years.2/
My wife and mother in law who were both "pro- life" republican their entire lives (mother in law is 70) are now pro choice democrats. 3/
Share the messages. Share the stories. Have the conversations. Do the difficult things to help some see. We won't change all, but some will.
Same here, but i dont know if it's worth the effort any more. It may be more productive to unionize andpressure the democrats into acting.

These comments have pulled me through the anger clouding me somewhat. Thank you to everyone who gave suggestions. I will look into them.
Take 3 minutes to make a sign supporting a local democrat & put it in your car window.
Or just buy one from their campaign website. You'll get a better quality one and donate to their campaign on top.
If you can, yes. But for some people those few dollars really do matter. And I'd image that's so for someone working 100/hr/wk.

I Googled it. Fan Wiki says Axolotl tanks make dead women give birth.
They don't make dead women give birth, they *are* women and they're reduced to birthing tanks. They're not dead but they might as well be.
In the latter Dune books, they refer to "axolotl tanks," which turn out of be women, modified to give birth to genetically engineered people
