[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the ultimate tell.  If the pro life movement truly believed that a fetus was a valuable human life worthy of protection, then they would be doing everything possible to prevent unwanted pregnancies.  If protecting unborn babies were the real goal, they’d be working hard to ensure easy access to every type of birth control.  But no… of course that’s not actually the goal…[/quote]
Remember when Colorado pioneered that study for IUD use in teens and teen pregnancy cratered? And you’d think that if avoiding abortion were soooo important they’d have supported that project going nationwide? Yeah, that’s not how that went. [/quote]

How did it go?

Thank you for asking. The GOP shut it down on the flimsiest of pretexts. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/may/06/colorado-contraception-family-planning-republicans Regretfully at this point the media, even the Guardian, was still unwilling to name the GOP’s misogyny for what it was.

Republicans in the Colorado senate considered the IUD AN ABORTION.
The article just barely acknowledges the harm inflicted by Republicans. I’m so sick of the media giving them a pass. [/quote]
It was 2015 and the world still wanted to pretend like far right Republicans were just another party. We know better now and the Guardian probably wouldn’t write the same article nowadays (the New York Times would need to get the takes of a dozen Trump voters who left reproductive age in the rear view a while back, but would call them “moderates” or “undecideds”).

And the GOP considers every kind of birth control to be abortion. Why? Because they hate women and want to control us. Birth control would likely remain legal if prescribed to a man in order to give to his sex partner. [/quote]
