I am asking genuinely.
Comment on "Your body, my choice:" Hate and harassment towards women spreads online

This is a continuation of hype trying to stir up more anger. Please don’t buy into this BS. Practically/virtually no one believes the phrase “your body, my choice.” I’d say probably 0.0001 of the population actually believe that that crap.
Although, there are plenty of assholes who will parrot that phrase as satire just to get a rise out of people. Probably 0.01.
You probably won’t ever get a chance to react to someone in person saying, “Your body, my choice.”
Let’s not give this group of haters a louder voice than they deserve, and let’s focus on important things like love and tolerance.

a lack of an answer tells me one of two things.
- they have not read it
- they cannot read
judging on their response (or lack therof), I’m going to guess they can’t read.

How prevalent the use of the exact phrase ‘Your body, my choice’ is irrelevant when the intent behind it is so common in other espoused rhetoric. The fact is that too fucking many people are happy to tear up a woman’s right to self determination and force women into situations that put their lives at risk. I don’t think we can ignore any rhetoric that supports or gives cover to such attacks on a woman’s autonomy.
At this point I would not be surprised if we started seeing feminist groups becoming armed and violent. And as much as I have a disdain for political violence, I don’t think I could condemn them for doing so.

This is crazy… misguided, hypocritical, extreme, and unsafe. Etc.

Just like back alley abortions. Both easily avoided by respecting the bodily and reproductive autonomy of women.

It is “practically/virtually” the ideology of pro-rape right-wingers everywhere. Why the fuck do you think they spent so much effort to crush abortion rights?

There are actual statistics in this article, unlike these which I think you made up.
You sound like those people saying that COVID was no big deal because “more people die in auto accidents”. How many people have to be affected before you deem it newsworthy?
