I can show you the same trend in the Iraq War, and it doesn't make it not a war. I guess I'm not sure of the point.

It's very concrete. There is a huge difference between an elective abortion and a medically necessary one. You're conflating the two because "a doctor performs it". My statement is simply that there is no reason not to p

Thousands have been killed on both sides of that conflict since 2014, handpicking a temporary downturn in 2021 is a bit disingenuous, no?

There is a reason you're being vague and not answering directly.

Perhaps you're not aware of what a medically necessary abortion is then? It's precipitated when the pregnancy is causing a medical complication that is putting the life of the mother in danger. Just going to see an abortion doctor

> I think that this is a decision between patient and doctor, and nobody else. If it's non-medically necessary then what does a doctor have to do with the decision? That's the whole point.

Is everything that isn't San Fran/Austin/Seattle/LA/NY a rural backwater in your mind?

This is an odd question. Is every child of every wealthy family entitled to buy their own expensive house in the same neighborhood? How exactly would that work in real life?

I would imagine this feeling is fairly common among everyone who isn't an upper middle class white person with a savior complex.

You're right, they're not the same thing. I would imagine killing an infant yourself after it's born is a lot harder (and actually murder) than having a non-medically necessary later term abortion. And yet hundreds of women d

Perhaps you didn't see what post I was replying to, but it would help in order to understand the context. The OP said "there is virtually no developed country that allows abortion this late in the pregnancy" and this is a com

Crimeans think they are part of Russia, and they voted numerous times on the issue. Also, what happened the day before Putin rolled his tanks into Crimea? Or do you think that just happened out of the blue?

I appreciate you comparing me to one of the foremost tech experts in the world, but the compliment is undeserved.

Interesting take, I think we argued the same before overthrowing governments in the Middle East and North Africa. We were wrong.

What exactly does it mean to transition gender then, if there is no definition of what makes a gender?

Safer for who? Do we have a long track record of not overthrowing governments that I'm not aware of?

Building it is the easy part though. Marketing it is where the problems come in.

Sounds like you're just describing "personality" then. If you can't define what constitutes a gender, then there is no such thing as a gender and therefore no need to transition between them.
