I am a nutcase on personal freedom and would never vote for limitations on reproductive rights. But this may be a case where my ideology is in conflict with the thriving of our species. A big fraction of our nosedive in fertility is due to reproductive control. Accidental births are more feature than bug for those of us who believe that human action is a net positive and that improved living standards and economic growth are good.
I don't really know how to reconcile this with support for individual rights. Except where authoritarianism is even worse, and I'm not sure that's a given.
