Funny connection between the two regarding "who deserves human rights" though.
In the 1700s people said slaves weren't really fully human and deserving of rights. Today people say unborn babies aren't really fully human and deserving of rights.
Maybe someday civil rights will progress to include the unborn. It's taken centuries to get to a society where all races, all religions, all genders, etc have full rights, maybe in 2100 the unborn rights movement will win out and our grandchildren will think we were unimaginable bigots.
- czzr 4y agoDoubtful. Unless you think in 2100 that rape victims will be forced to carry babies to term and people will mourn early miscarriages as if a toddler died. I would be extremely surprised.
- trasz 4y agoIt doesn’t matter if fetuses are people. What does matter is if people who don’t want to be pregnant are people. Because abortion ban denies them their right to decide about their bodies. Abortion ban is just yet another form of religiously motivated organized stupidity. It’s no different from LGBT discrimination.
