Honestly it's absolutely shocking that there are anti-abortion women at all tbh but it's also in the same country where half the country wants to elect an inept treasonous convict

It is perfectly fine being anti-abortion for personal beliefs, but to be anti-choice for others is shocking.

Even as a personal belief it can be problematic when it causes harm to children you have while your own life circumstances don't really make that a good idea (e.g. being gravely ill and dying soon after the birth, leaving the child a predictable orphan; having genetic diseases that will kill any children you have after significant suffering with no chance of a cure;...). There are always at least two people to consider in any decision not to abort, even if one is only a future potential person (but unlike the decision to abort, where that person does not exist in that future, when they are born they actually can suffer).

there are a lot of women in jeebus camp who've been indoctrinated since birth to do what they're told by men. they argue that it frees them of the 'burden' of thinking for themselves and making their own decisions. because the belief that those things are too much work for a woman is part of the indoctrination

A lot of working class men and enbies are taught to think that way too when it comes to questioning Capital or the government. Most people want to avoid pain and effort. If society tells them that taking responsibility for their own lives is painful, they won't do it. Look at how many people "hate talking about politics". It's learned helplessness. They don't want to be involved in making the decisions that affect their lives. They want a strong person to do it for them. That's why fascism is able to fester.

And if these women had an ectopic pregnancy they’d be the first in line to abort it while denying that right to other women.

Rich people know that they are exempt to most rules and sometimes they just want to impose them on others.

100%

How many of these anti abortion politicians have sent their mistresses out of state for abortions, probably even pressuring or coercing them using their more advanced legal, financial, and social standings?

Need babies for war

Well, a lot of women think life begins at conception, not at birth. And yeah, complications happen, but that's life.
