MODERATORS
You're arguing that you don't have to argue. You're the same guy I'm replying to from yesterday about this very topic. I'm laughing so hard that here you are spending all your energy taking about what most western countries do or do not do, but you STILL won't argue for or against bodily autonomy, for or against abortion. You have no argument! You just want to talk about things that are completely irrelevant, like what policy has been decided. It's irrelevant! Argue or admit you can't justify what you believe. This is my 3rd reply to you and you never argue or justify anything, just more invitation to meaningless conversation.
My argument is that our abortion policies tend to be in line, or more liberal than many of the western countries the left looks up to.
I'd be fine with a 12 week ban, that's in much of western europe.
I don't care! This is exactly what I meant about conservative misdirection when YOU were CRYING yesterday about how everyone ridicules conservatives on reddit/lemmy. Ridiculous ideas deserve ridicule, by definition. You refuse to engage my argument because you have no response. So you argue ANYTHING else, you ask me to consider your own arguments, knowing you'll trap and misdirect at every turn. Abortion should be legal because we should have a right to our own bodies. Ultimately, you don't believe in this right, which is why you avoid the topic. If you want to know why I treat you like other conservatives, it's because you act like other conservatives.
Please keep this discussion civil, per rule 1. Don't personally attack people who don't agree with you. Go to twitter if you want to do that.
I don't see how I'm personally attacking them, nor do I intend to. When I said they were crying, I was referencing their comment from yesterday. I want to attack their ideas, which do not need to be respected. I respect their right to have their opinion heard and that's why I've repeatedly asked this user to argue the topic, as of yesterday. They will not. They also complained that they were unfairly persecuted, while they respond to threads like this one, asserting their opinion, arguing irrelevant topics, never engaging my position. I'd call them a troll but I think they're sincere.
