> We are not willing to agree to abortion free for all where you can just kill a fully formed baby at nine months like you can in Walz's Minnesota.

See? Ignorant, and I say that not as an insult but as an absolute statement of fact.

No woman 9 months pregnant can just go get an abortion at 9 months. The only reason that is allowed is for cases where it is medically necessary, that's it. Even in those cases, the doctor would do everything possible to save both lives wherever possible.

This is the inverse of laws like in Texas where women are dying due to not being able to abort a baby that isn't even viable at 5 months or so. Take some time to read up on these things, PLEASE.

We really have people voting because they think women can just voluntarily terminate a pregnancy a few days before they are due to give birth? What in the hell has happened to the average ability to think critically in this country?


Could you please stop taking this thread further into political flamewar? You've been doing it a lot, and we're trying to avoid that here.

Please don't take HN threads further into political flamewar. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

No dang, YOU have destroyed this site. It's already well on its way to becoming the next Reddit. Only the most extreme progressive positions can be posted here, anything else will get flagged out of existence. Hackernews and all the other social media sites with their censorship are destroying the minds of people and furthering this division. Just look at this thread as a perfect example. Ruthmarx and I have a fundamental disagreement about the actual facts, and you call that a flamewar. Now we can't find a resolution. Neither of us can learn anything.


> Yes, they can.

Not voluntarily, only due to medical necessity. As I said.

> It seems to me you like to substitute what you want to be true for reality. That's the opposite of critical thinking.

The irony here.

Not trying to continue a political flamewar as per dang, but correcting blatant misinformation like the above should be everyone's social responsibility.
