No, you got it right. The right is trying to say that democrats are all baby murderers, and they’re using the “post-birth abortion” phrase to act like “Look, this is what they call it, to pretend to themselves it’s not actually murder. But we right-thinking republicans all know it’s really murder” and the viewers goes “Wow, those baby-murdering democrats can even convince themselves they’re not committing murder!” instead what they should REALLY be thinking which is “wait, are they really all murdering babies? Like really?”
Conservatives are people who love to be lied to. They think dishonesty is virtue and honesty is a vice. That’s why we have qtards, pizzatards, birthertards, sandyhooktards, startthestealtards etc.
Worse, they don’t believe in virtue and vice. They believe that “Who said it” is more important than what was said, Trump and Obama could say the same exact factual thing, but they’d only agree with Trump.
My cousin thinks that abortion at any stage is literally murdering babies (used that phrase before) so there’s that.
And a college friend of mine said that to her, the moment a sperm and egg come together you have something indistinguishable from a baby with a “soul” (word I had used to bring up the topic) and everything. Clearing up the obvious BS is one thing, but we also need to hold that line of thinking to account
Yeah, that level of combining science and religion is nuts to me. Like, at what point does the indescribable, intangible soul attach to the cell. Is it when the sperm penetrates the egg? Or is it when the first phase of mitosis occurs? Or what? And are there a million souls swimming along, each one following a sperm, waiting for their chance to latch on to a fertilized egg? Or maybe one soul per egg? Or maybe God knows when an egg will be fertilized, and he only dispatches one soul when it happens, but in that case he should know when a fertilized egg isn’t going to be born, and not put a soul in that fetus, right? When they try to get really specific about the rules of their make believe club, it starts sounding very silly. But then you get hit with the “we aren’t supposed to know his plan/the Lord works in mysterious ways” and that means you’re not allowed to think about it with the brain God gave you any more.
