Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Ectopic pregnancies and anencephaly are two very clear health care related reasons to end a pregnancy. They aren't the only reasons and women should have final authority over their bodies. Abortion should be legal and widely available to women who want it, end of story.

If you don't like abortion, that's fine. It's not everyone's choice, but that doesn't mean the choice should be taken away for those who want it. You should be making it easier for women to get prenatal care, postpartum care, healthcare for their child, day care, and opportunities in the workforce to pay for the needs of themselves and their children. You should also support birth control beyond abstinence only.
