Abortion serves the ruling class. It first got pushed by the aristocracy in the late 1800's and early 1900's to limit the size of poor populations and reduce the mouths to feed, also reducing the need for the rich to share crumbs with the poor in order to prevent revolutions. It was particularly targeted against the poor black population of America, and so effective that, at least until recently, the black population of the U.S. was the only racial population not to grow in number since Roe v Wade. No one really talks about this disturbing reality.
Beyond that troubling truth, I find life to be way to fragile and precious, even in all of it's existing harsh elements, to support snuffing out the candle when it's just begun to burn, but I am also aware that we need ask ourselves something: Why is the ruling class willing to suddenly give up this useful element of population control? What do they know about the path ahead that we don't?
I can only recommend, my friend, no matter how you feel about abortion, taking this deeper than the culture war invites you to think about it. The culture wars are fought among the working class, mainly. Isn't it funny how they flare up at times when the class divide is exploding? Ever since the housing crisis, if you think about it, it's been unfolding...
