I just watched John Oliver's video on abortion rights and it was nice to see that my favorite game of "let's see how long it takes for 'pro-life' people to admit they hate women" is still relevant.

It only took a couple of comments for anti-choicers to devolve into "women need to keep their legs shut." Absolutely no blame directed towards men who impregnate women because as we all know pregnancy only requires one person. Also, it was awesome seeing people defend the fact that anti-choicers don't support social welfare policies because "why should we have to pay for the consequences of you opening your legs?"

#every day I thank the universe that I snapped out of being pro-life #I was HEAVILY indoctrinated in Catholic school and it took me YEARS to stop being so stubborn about it #what got me out of it was becoming more leftist and feeling disgusted at how most 'pro-life' people do not support policies #that provide social safety nets for families and single mothers #nor do they actually seem to give a shit about children once they're born #NOR do they support contraception and sex ed #so as someone who DOES want to limit abortions by doing all those things I was like 'wow fuck you people'#'I'm going to go hang out with the pro-choicers who actually DO support those policies'#pro choice #bodily autonomy #abortion rights #reproductive rights
