Excuse, more like sales pitch. You get together a bunch of old men who want to control women they will come up with the idea of being cruel to them when they disobey. Sounds pretty fucked up, how would you get people to agree? Don't worry about that, they will sell the idea abortion is murder. You wouldn't feel sorry for a murderer would you?

And punishing women for having sex.

The conservatives' platform is entirely logical:

1. Removing education, opportunities, and social safety nets keeps people ignorant, poor, and vulnerable.

2. Without government willing to help, people in need are forced to turn to the church.

3. Religion breeds more conservatives.

(Forced-birth polices not only take step #3 literally, but also enhance step #1 by burdening young people with kids they aren't ready for.)

You'd think so, but try bringing up reparations and see how quickly they change their tune about the sins of their fathers.

I thought god forgave us for that when our ancestors nailed his son to a cross?

No she was one of several women imprisoned under a new Alabama statute for "chemical endangerment of a fetus." You know, a "crime" that already can't be committed again by the time the imprisoned reach trial for it because of the way our "justice" system works.

Those women aren't allowed to endanger a fetus, but the all-knowing authorities are, apparently. (Yes, let's forcibly cold-turkey detox a pregnant person who was using. Great idea.)

All cops and judges have qualified immunity🤷
