    I hate this. I appreciate that journalism is trying to highlight this as a way to help people understand why roe overturning was such a bad idea on so many levels.

      For some people, this is exactly why they wanted it overturned. Pro-Choice Activists have been saying for decades that this is about rolling back women’s rights and freedoms, and that arguing over the merits of abortion as a medical procedure was pointless.

        Why do they want this though? Why do they want to roll back women’s rights and freedoms? What’s the appeal of that? Just… Why??? ~Strawberry
