I’m center-right in my political beliefs, and I lean slightly more libertarian than conservative (corroborated via the Political Compass). Preservation and expansion of second amendment rights is an issue of most importance to me, possibly more than any other issue (ya I’m a gun nut). As I’m very pro-2A out of respect for personal liberty and freedom of choice, I am also strongly in favor of abortion rights and physician-assisted dying (as is seen in Switzerland).
That being said, while I’m very pro-choice in principle and not 100% supportive of the new TX law, I have ZERO energy to go up to bat for those who are freaking out about it. Why?
1) The “mY bODy MY cHoiCE” screaming harpies are all about bodily autonomy…that is, until COVID-related bodily autonomy comes up. These same people who want abortion with absolutely no restrictions, citing bodily autonomy, have no qualms about clamoring for vaccine mandates. MBMC then goes out the window because they need a cudgel to attack those they disagree with. Fucking hypocrites. *NOTE* I’m fully vaxxed and I think many of the arguments against it are pretty goddamned autistic. But I fully believe in allowing people to make their own choices, and if they don’t want it, then that’s their choice to take on the risk and it’s ‘god bless’ from there.
2) These shitheads are mostly leftists who hold nothing but contempt towards the second amendment. They would like nothing more than for it to be non-existent, and would do nothing to fight for the 2A (hell they fight against it) in the face of infringements. They would endorse confiscation measures wholeheartedly. IOW, they would NEVER lend us a hand, even though 2A is an actual constitutional right of unfathomable importance, unlike the mental gymnastics they go through to argue that fucking abortion is a constitutional right. They have contempt for me, despite my defending their side of the abortion issue. I’m fucking tired- they’re on their own as far as I’m concerned.
3) This “pregnant people” rhetorical horseshit that’s being pushed by leftists, their politicians and institutions is irritating to the MAX. So much, that I have no sympathy that these people are apoplectic. Let them stew in it. Maybe I’ll come back around when they go back to saying “pregnant WOMEN,” but I doubt that genie’s going back in the bottle. Fuck them and their “pregnant people.” This alone causes my support to hemorrhage.
Doesn’t feel so good when something paramount to your sense of freedom is fucked with, huh girls?

Sit down and get a taste of your own medicine. Don’t look to us for support- you’ve already demonstrated where you lie.
