[quote]well i actually have a uterus, for one. in areas where there is limited access to abortion care there is also limited access to transgender healthcare because they're more often than not provided by similar services. even in the places where it won't be limited, they're looking to do the same they did today to contraceptive laws and same-sex marriage laws anyway. the only real point in your favour is that i don't live in america, but i still live in a country that's trying to kill me in extremely similar ways.[/quote] That is unfortunate. It has nothing to do with taking what was a Federal decision in the United States of America and making it now a State by State decision in, again, the United States of America. I'm very sorry to hear your country is apparently trying to kill you, but it isn't really impacted by changes of law in an entirely different country. [quote]i have a lot of friends in america. i've got friends who have had abortions. a lot of them live in states that will absolutely pounce on the opportunity to pass abortion bans. this affects them severely. i am angry for them and i am angry for all the people like me in america who are now in even more danger than they were before.[/quote] That will only impact them if they have or wish to have an (or another) abortion, and if they live in a State which decides to ban it. In such a case they should consider either moving to another state, which does not want to ban abortions, or going to another state to acquire that abortion. Several companies have pledged to help fund this. [quote]if you don't think vulnerable people deserve bodily autonomy you're fine to think that. don't dress it up with all this dogshit centrist devil's advocate bullshit of "not allowing people to be pieces of shit is fascism!". [/quote] I am not the strawman you have built to do battle with and assuming a bunch of nonsense about someone and projecting it on to them is not an effective strategy. That is a big "if" but just in case you were actually curious and not just hurling insults, I do believe in bodily autonomy. I don't know what you're trying to say with a Centrist Devil's Advocate position, but calling people who are doing things you don't like pieces of shit is dehumanizing which is a core facet of the evil of facism.
