It was useful as a wedge issue when denying legal abortions was just an abstract idea. Now even ‘pro-life’ people have to see the consequences and start actually thinking about what they’ve been shrieking about mindlessly for decades. Some of them will start finding nuance in the issue, but they’ll never just think- ‘maybe we should have fucked off and not denied abortion in the first place.’

One would think but I don’t think insight or nuance is their strong suit. If it were, we wouldn’t be having this conversation today.

The only way any of these people will start to actually think about what they've done is when it personally affects them. It's "too bad, so sad" for everyone else, until they see the consequences hurt them or someone they love.
