Ways Republicans aren’t Pro-Life

I promised that I would do this post in the last post. You see, some people may wonder why I can support Democrats because they don’t think that Democrats are pro-life. Well, after much observation from the political world, I have come to the conclusion that while there certainly is a party that isn’t pro-life, it sure as hell isn’t the Democrats. Here are reasons why Republicans aren’t the pro-life party people claim that they are.

 

1: Gun rights- This is the only part of the constitution that it seems that Republicans care about is the right to bear arms. It is the only one that they are knowledgeable about, at least to an extent. They are so gung ho about people bearing guns, they loosen gun control laws despite the constant mass shootings in this country. They want to ban the laws that get guns taken out of the hands of those who could do terrible things with it, in some cases wanting to ban these red flag laws. They don’t want background checks done on gun owners. They want those on the no fly list to be able to buy guns still. They don’t even want training for gun owners. How is any of this pro-life?

 

2: Crusading against birth control: This makes zero sense. You cannot claim to be pro-life if you don’t want people to have access to birth control. People who know the basics about sex, which is most people past the age of 15, know that birth control prevents the pregnancies that lead to abortions in the first place. Do people think that government funded birth control is too far or something like that? Do they feel that it is like they are giving up? Here, have all the sex that you want, just use birth control. Why would one be against both birth control and abortion?

 

3: Being pro-war: Again, it makes no sense to support war which causes loss of life if you want to claim to be pro-life. I’m shocked that anyone could support war in most circumstances. If you want to say that a war is just, then you better make sure it lasts a short amount of time and does not go any further than it needs to. Wanting wars that last forever is not pro-life at all.

 

4: Not wanting universal health care: You are a moron if you don’t believe that Republicans want to get rid of universal health care considering how open and honest they are about this. Maybe they don’t realize that 45,000 people would die each year due to lack of health care coverage. And they don’t think that people should have it? Da fuck?

 

5: Legalizing vehicle ramming attacks: Yes, this is happening in some places. While those on the wrong claim to care about life, it seems like the life of those who attack protesters are the ones that they care about more than any others. They call the storming of the capitol a protest despite all the evidence against this, but want to protect those who ram their vehicles into those who protest instead of those who peacefully protest.

 

6: Doing nothing about climate change: Despite all the destruction that climate change does, so many Republicans are too interested in protecting their major donors in the fossil fuel industry to the point of pretending that climate change isn’t an issue at all. People are going to keep dying in states negatively affected by this, states that are actually red leaning, with their party not doing a damn thing to help.

 

7: Not helping those with special needs: This is the main reason why I’m a Democrat. I see a party completely blow off those with pre-existing conditions, I guess thinking that since they won’t be likely voters at all, that it doesn’t matter if they are treated worse and are used as tokens by those in the Republican Party. If you want to blame gun violence on mental health, why not help those with mental health issues? If you helped those with special needs, it could be one of the most pro-life things they could do. But they only lie and say that they help when anyone with facts on their side can call out their BS.

 

8: Being anti-vaccine: Again, this makes absolutely no sense as the anti-vaccine people are far more active on the conservative side than with any liberal. I mean, who do Democrats have? We have Robert Kennedy Jr., a man widely hated by his own party. Republicans have so many people and let such nonsense happen since they need these peoples’ vote.

 

9: Being too lax with covid laws: Something that Republicans won’t admit are again facts that are easy to look up. Most states with the highest per capita dead of covid are all Republican states. They ban mask wearing or vaccine passports. They don’t want common sense laws in order to mitigate the pandemic since they feel that it infringes on personal rights. This and the last one make no sense as to why someone would be against abortion and yet openly embrace the phrase of my body, my choice over personal freedom rights again.

 

10: Supporting torture: Let’s not forget that one of the reasons that Republicans want to have something like Guatomino Bay is because it allows them to torture people who are suspected of being terrorists despite the fact that they aren’t allowed due process and we don’t do this to our own criminals so why should we do this to international ones?

 

11: Various anti-science ways: This last one is just a catch-all over anything that Republicans say or do that is clearly against scientific reasons that goes against life. You should listen to what mainstream doctors say and you will be fine.

 

I could go on, but I think that I made my point for anyone who will believe this. Maybe you don’t agree with any of this. I know that some of you will refuse to believe the truth for whatever reason. But I think that I made my reasoning known as to why Republicans aren’t pro-life like they claim to be and why I can support Democrats over them.
