Can we just start calling it what it is? “Pro-birth” The right doesn’t care what happens to you after that…hence the outside circles…and healthcare, food assistance, shelter, etc.

I think "anti-choice" is adequate, gets the point across in a different way

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 4 points 10 months ago

Especially since “pro-choice” by no stretch means “anti-life”.

I agree wholeheartedly. I think this is an excellent phrase that describes what these people are trying to do on many levels.

The point of all of these propaganda campaigns, is take control from others and leave themselves in charge.

It centers on making everyone think the same as them.

So on every level they want to remove your choices

If they were pro birth they'd be providing, if nothing else, pre and post natal healthcare as well as paid parental leave. But they don't and deaths related to births are on the rise.

"Pro-suffering"?

[–] Robotunicorn@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Yea, they were never going to pay for any of that or help in any way.

Birth can mean a healthy happy life afterward (they wouldn't want that), so more like "pro-plentiful-cheap-labor-supply"
