That just makes this even more sad than I already thought - how many honest women were deemed harlots because they were tortured into a miscarriage?

I’m sure it has nothing to do with Bentleys getting uglier while other luxury cars are getting cooler looking.

OLGA rocked. I’d forgotten all about it.

This. Especially in modern first-world nations. There are plenty of resources for the wealthy to still be wealthy and everyone to have at least economic security.

A better challenge would be, “this isn’t a choice-based abortion and not a direct, meaningful challenge to modern, destructive, pro-life positions.”

However it is interpreted, though, it does contradict the first principle upon which pro-life positions are based that any abortion is murder and therefore prohibited. My short time on this platform has led me to assume the average commenter is not capable of nuance and therefore assumes any contradiction is a stance on the polar opposite - I therefore must spend this sentence clarifying I believe the first principle of pro-lifers is absolutely false.

The passage literally has ingredients of wheat, holy water, and church dust with instructions for use.

Again, taxation is but one of many levers pulled in the working of government which have substantial implications on billionaires. Whether and where to impose tariffs or regulation, for example, are decisions which wealthy business owners are very concerned.

I’ll see a doctor as soon as you approach others with more respect. Let’s not Reddit Lemmy with unmerited hostility.

Trump winning will be a major blow to everyone in this country. Ironically, the hammer will strike hardest on those who most vehemently support him.

I’m not sure I understand your question. They are both pro-government. If any one human could be the personification of government, it would be the President of the United States.

I say the same thing, but I say the 39th trimester.

If parents are legally responsible for their kids, they should be legally able to solve their own problems.

You expected any talk about abortion to be fun? Whether an abortion is no one’s business but the woman’s, I can’t imagine fun could come anywhere near the experience.

Also, the whole section (not just 21) is a step-by-step guide which results in aborting a baby conceived in an extramarital relationship.

It’s the whole section, 11-29. 21 is the passage which describes the outcome. If you read the whole section it’s a pretty clear set of steps on how to abort a fetus.

Granted, it requires the Lord. If you don’t believe we cannot help you.

Just because Trump risks being the worst thing to happen to democracy in the history of humanity, we cannot excuse genocide.

The funding of the genocide and blocking of UN attempts to address it are real. Trump’s demolition of democracy is, as of now, merely a risk.

They’re not at all opposing forces. Some billionaires are in competition with each other and political parties are tools at certain billionaires disposal.

The act of taxing income is but one political mechanism used to influence the power of some billionaires over another.

Honestly she should be worth more given her age and husband.

Linux users are inherently required to operate the operating system more than Windows or Mac. It’s something they spend time doing and therefore a frequent enough activity that some people talk about that activity.

I agree with you in spirit. The most common sentiment I see among the comments is not to limit what people can share but how actively platforms move people down rabbit holes. If there is not action on the part of the platforms to correct for this, they risk regulation which in turn puts freedom of speech at risk.
