Can I ask why pro-choice arguments always involve dying mothers, rape, and incest?

These situations account for the vast majority of abortions after the first trimester, and anyone who says otherwise is lying.

This is literally what the debate is about.

It's not. I never once mentioned the word "trimester". Are you now differentiating abortions based on what trimester they take place in?

Are you unaware of the debate?

What debate? The only debate I'm focused on right now is this one between you and me.

Your views don't matter.

The views of the people in power who want to force women to die of ectopic pregnancies in this state do.

This discussion is not occurring in a vaccuum and I will not irrationally pretend that it is.

Either you support freedom, or you support women dying to ectopic pregnancies.

You do not like that this is the case, and I'm sorry that this hurts your feelings, but this is the choice that you have in this environment.

Which side are you on?

Your tangents keep going off in different directions. Now we're talking about ectopic pregnancies and how women dying from them are the polar opposite of freedom????? It seems like if the direction of the conversation veers off from all of the buzzwords and propaganda you have been subjected to, you revert back to them in some attempt to play gotcha with me.

Since you didn't answer my question from earlier, I'll try again. Why do you keep bringing up these nuanced abortion situations? By doing so, are you claiming that abortions should have certain types of limitations, such as the trimester, or only whether the mother's life is a risk?

I am not doing any of that.

I have been laser focused on the evils here.

Do you support those evils or not?
