    No. Fuck off with that. Not every abortion is about trauma and tragedy and using that framing plays into the christofascist’s hands. Women are humans. Humans have bodily autonomy. Ergo, women have b

I tried to save Thanksgiving but y’all are postings links that start with “We hypothesize” with no scientific conclusion and saying humans should be culled.

"Overpopulation should be culled." With the killing of human children inside the womb. I'm not seeing how one is supposed to read it any other way.

He's lampooning Anastasis, not advocating for culling humanity. This is really not hard to follow along unless you're a sealion.

I’m in favor of reducing overpopulation by extending equal rights to women, putting every girl in school, ending forced and childhood marriages, expanding equal access to women’s health and birth control, and removing barriers to women in the workplace.  This One Simple Trick of letting women and girls choose their own lives will bring your birthrate down. It also makes your society a much nicer place to hang around in. 
 

We will absolutely struggle with short term effects of navigating a graying world but we also have a duty to the living creatures we share the planet with to not destroy our only common home. 
 

The main problem is that the absolute worst people from every creed, race, and nation are united in their loathing of a world where women get a say in how many babies they have because their actual ideology is completely unattractive so all they have is reproduction. 

it's pretty simple really... some people don't trust women to make their own decisions regarding their bodies, their family, their life, and their personal well being. i

i cannot be trusted, therefore my personal agency must be controlled and limited by men.

I hope you aren’t subjecting anyone IRL to such political brain damage 

Regardless of where you stand on this issue, Ana’s schtick here is so disingenuous.  A bunch of people opposed to Texas’ law warned that it would have serious and dangerous consequences beyond its stated intent.  
 

The law passed, we see those consequences in real life and Ana’s response is:

”Those consequences are a result of misapplication of the law and none of you assholes are serious about fixing this law you didn’t want in the first place (and which is only being misinterpreted anyway so it doesn’t really need fixing).”

Such utter horseshit.

Re-read the abstract. 

Just curious did you read past the abstract and actually read the article?

Spoiler

Adolescents in the 2010's endured a series of significant political events that may have influenced their mental health. The first Black president, Democrat Barack Obama, was elected to office in 2008, during which time the Great Recession crippled the US economy (Mukunda, 2018), widened income inequality (Kochhar & Fry, 2014), and exacerbated the student debt crisis (Stiglitz, 2013). The following year, Republicans took control of the Congress and then, in 2014, of the Senate. Just two years later, Republican Donald Trump was elected to office, appointing a conservative supreme court and deeply polarizing the nation through erratic leadership (Abeshouse, 2019). Throughout this period, war, climate change (O’brien, Selboe, & Hayward, 2018), school shootings (Witt, 2019), structural racism (Worland, 2020), police violence against Black people (Obasogie, 2020), pervasive sexism and sexual assault (Morrison-Beedy & Grove, 2018), and rampant socioeconomic inequality (Kochhar & Cilluffo, 2018) became unavoidable features of political discourse. In response, youth movementspromoting direct action and political change emerged in the face of inaction by policymakers to address critical issues (Fisher & Nasrin, 2021; Haenschen & Tedesco, 2020). Liberal adolescents may have therefore experienced alienation within a growing conservative political climate such that their mental health suffered in comparison to that of their conservative peers whose hegemonic views were flourishing. This is particularly true for less privileged groups of liberals, including girls and low SES individuals, for whom both heightened awareness and experience of conservative actions to restrict their rights may have compounded emotional distress.

There is also potential for overlap in how politicized events impact adolescents. Broad-reaching phenomena, such as worsening climate change or school shootings may impact mental health for all adolescents, while social injustices like sexism, which gained media attention through the #MeToo movement, may be felt most acutely by those personally affected

Among the most socially privileged group, male adolescents with highly educated parents, conservative ideology may work as a psychological buffer by harmonizing an idealized worldview with the bleak external realities experienced by many (Jost et al., 2008). This group presumably benefits from the American cultural myth of an equal playing fieldin which exceptional social positions are thought to be earned through hard-work and talent rather than inherited through codified privilege (Turner, 1960). Among underprivileged groups, such as those without a parental college degree, especially Black female adolescents, conservatism alone was not protective for mental health. This pattern is consistent with other evidence indicating that adherence to conservative ideology may be less beneficial for disadvantaged individuals who are potentially less inclined to interpret their own experiences of inequality as systemic in nature versus resulting from personal inadequacy 

 

 

So in conclusion:

1.  Society is becoming more progressively more conservative with more fucked up things happening to poor women and minorities and as a result, those who are part of those being directly affected or give a shit about the world around them and want less shitty things like school shootings and extreme weather feel more mental stress and those who dont give a shit.

2. Rich, white conservatives, especially males, tend to not really give a shit about bad things happened to others, since it doesn’t effect them directly, so feel less mental stress than those who are affected or give a shit.

3.  If you are  poor or not a member of the privileged group, then being conservative offers no protection at all against feeling increased mental stress.

 

That article is one hell of a flex!

I am not the one that introduced mental health into this discussion. Go back and read the exchange. 

I find it interesting how Annie spent years trying to project as some sort of hyper-logical libertarian, when all it took was a handle of bourbon, a day off when he desperately wanted to avoid his family, and the re-election of Donald Trump to reveal his true colors as an absolutely despicable yet typical MAGA dude.

Well done, jackass.

Y’all haven’t realized it was a bit til now? He gets off on finding someone he can call a 4th grader. You can practically hear him splash off the glass Roman Roy style.

I figured a couple of y’all enjoyed being his Gerry Kellman, talking him through his release.

His turn to mental health disorders is just plain old projection. He’s embarrassed, but can’t stop.

He called me a 4th grader. I’m so terribly offended. [emoji849] Once someone resorts to name calling, they aren’t worth engaging anymore.

Almost had it, I said. What you continue to leave out of your reasoning is the woman who is carrying the fetus. You’re not alone, of course. You are with the group that includes folks who carry signs, like the one seen at Texas State earlier this month, that read: “Women are Property.”

Yep. The woman is irrelevant. She is a vessel, not a human being with any agency or rights.

California has a great distinction on this, they say if the child is mutilated by a doctor, it's okay, but if the child is killed with the mother who was just on her way to abort it is still double homicide.  It doesn't make sense. It doesn't matter how the mother truly feels, it's how the state sees it.
