The Democrats were fine with mandating experimental COVID vaccines, but when it comes to abortion "bodily autonomy is a fundamental right". What a joke.

  Abortions aren't contagious, are you serious? Body autonomy means I don't have to catch a disease because other people are too selfish to get a vaccine that is only experimental in the same way air and water is experimental.

    > Abortions aren't contagious, are you serious? I never said they were. But if you're going to make an argument about bodily autonomy then how you can you be OK with forcing people getting a medical treatment they do not want? Vaccination protects you from the disease. Vaccinating a 3rd party does not, we've been over this already. The COVID vaccine was in fact experimental and it only received an "Emergency Use Authorization" by the FDA. How about you check some basic facts before you respond?

  It's trivial to flip this on its head: The Republicans fought tooth and nail against even simple mask mandates but now want to legislate what happens in a woman's uterus in the name of "protecting life"? What a joke.

    > The Republicans fought tooth and nail against even simple mask mandates Yes, it was also hilarious to see Democrat politicians vacationing in Florida maskless while their constituents had to follow illogical mask rules back home. Heck, in some cases they don't even pretend to care about these rules themselves (see MET gala and the countless of "parties" these politicians went to maskless). > now want to legislate what happens in a woman's uterus in the name of "protecting life"? What a joke. The supreme court did not ban abortion, so your argument is moot here. I'm personally OK with abortion in the early stages. But I'd argue that there's a line where a woman's "bodily autonomy" ends and a prenate's bodily autonomy begins where abortion becomes more than the equivalent of removing an appendix.
