Do you think comparing a parasite to a fetus is equivalent and a good way to convince pro life people?
Is it logically equivalent? I mean they both drain their host, they both require a host to survive, and usually one dies when removed from the host.
Are conservative Christians going to care? Of course not because NO ARGUMENT WILL EVER BE ENOUGH for them. They believe a sky fairy will save them from eternal suffering that the same sky fairy sends them to for not believing hard enough that sky fairy exists. Logic isn’t important to them.
(obama_notbad.face) That sums it up quite nicely.
The thing that never ceases to baffle me with religious people is when they’re faced with terrible hardship, catastrophic life events, disability or unending suffering, and they thank the Lord for sending them a just test of their faith.
Well, I have a disability, and if there’s a magical sky fairy out there responsible for it, you can go fuck yourself, you mean piece of shit.
But there isn’t so I’m not bitter 🙂
Do you know what a shitpost is?
An organism living in, on, or with another organism in order to obtain nutrients, grow, or multiply often in a state that directly or indirectly harms the host. The ends to the mean is worth the sacrifice to most mothers and often intentionally planned for or accepted, but yes, a fetus qualifies.
Do you know what community you’re in?
Do you know how high I am, occifer?
A fetus is a parasite…
And more importantly, who fucking cares?
I get where you’re coming from. It’s kind of annoying when other pro-choice people smugly treat pregnancy and sometimes even children as inherently undesirable all the time. But like other people have already pointed out, the purpose of the post was never to convince anyone, it’s just being funny.

People who have not arrived at a position by logic or reason can never be dissuaded by logic or reason. This is humor, because trying to debate or convince an anti-abortion terrorist that are not only wrong but evil would be pointless.

they are evil, but they are not illogical. there seem to be a confusion between logic, which is objective, and morality, which is not.
and i think the mentality of “they are evil, therefore they are not logical, therefore there is no point trying to talk to them” is very unconstructive. because it rules out the possibility of change. if you think they cannot be changed, what else can you do? wait for them to all die, then we’d all be living in paradise? or throw 40% of US citizens in prison?

Their logic is “women are cattle that exist to breed” and so there’s literally no argument in favor of abortion you can ever make.

Being pregnant themselves under inopportune circumstances changes their mind, at least temporarily.

No one has ever told you that about right-wingers and religious extremists.

For some reason that link is borked on Wikipedia’s end, this should work:
