"Ohhh, look how I tricked this dumb dumb baby in my trap so now I am right and they are wrong. I'm so smaaart even though it does not adress the actual argument and adds nothing to the debate. They teach arabic numerals in school btw."

And these type of comments always get tons of likes

I think it addresses how uneducated people are about fetuses or just about conception and pregnancy as a whole yet still believe they know enough to be hold strong rigid opinions.

Most pro choice people cant tell the difference either, Saying this as pro choice, its just a bad faith argument

Most people can’t tell the difference because there’s nothing remotely close to a human being at that stage.

Nobody is pro abortion, they just believe in women’s rights to bodily autonomy.

Some people are pro abortion. We don't need more people.

Pro life people often think of it as still a negative sad thing that's stigmatized. Just get rid of it. I'll bake you a cake if you want.

Even then the "pro-abortion" people would much rather the fetus not get created in the first place, and it's an unfortunate necessity to end a runaway biological process before it causes harm.
