From MPCForum aka Mypostingcareer on X:
“Years ago I figured out that abortion was largely a culture war fraud used to manipulate conservatives into always losing. It was always the last ditch "we need to vote for this shambling, zero charisma GOP establishment asshole so we can end Roe" gambit. Turns out we didn't need to do that, we just needed to elect a real estate magnate who understood politics better than the entire Republican Party (admittedly this somewhat understates his achievement).
Trump was right to appoint judges who would overturn Roe, which was a bad ruling (like Griswold before it) that essentially made the court a secondary legislative branch that liberals could turn to for anything they couldn't get Congress to push through.
The reason Roe was so terrible is that it circuмvented local authority and democratic expression. Obviously nothing changes the fact that every woman is a danger to her own children, both before and after their birth. But what is especially dumb about the abortion people is their elevation of this issue far above anything else--including, most crucially, creating a society in which middle class men and women want to and are able to form families and have children when women are young. For abortion is not a meaningful or salient concern when no one is having children by any means.
Today we have a society in which having children is delayed until women are practically semi-retired and their elderly wombs can no longer produce the healthiest offspring, and then only after accuмulating large university debts, derailing their lives into sour, wine-swilling dating chronicles, and submitting to all the other joys of being a herd of consumerist cows that collect pastel tumblers instead of learning to care for others.
The women who are having children are having small families, raised in a desertified secular culture, to fit their delusions of professional achievement and to accommodate their aforementioned consumerist tastes. This is the worst of all possible worlds. The children we do have are raised in isolated suburban pods, badly parented by immature fools, and infected with soul-destroying entertainment materialism (which today's evangelical churches have even perverted their heretical religions with). (Sounds like Bishop Williamson here)
The West has been on this death march to extinction for decades, and all of its policies and governance support such an outcome. Worrying about abortion in this context is insane. You are killing the children you do have--the only argument you have engaged in is how early to kill them. A child aborted is no worse off than a child raised in a miserable secular culture in which Christ is completely absent. In both cases you should prepare to be fitted with a stone and thrown overboard; for you have killed your child by leading him astray.”(Again sounds like Bishop Williamson).
