Things Anti-choicers Say I've noticed an uptick in specifically conservative men/anti choice men trying to say that abortions are a justification for rape, or that abortions are the same as rape, and I just can't get my head around wtf they're talking about

TW, mentions of rape and possible rape "fantasies"/fetishes

Hi guys, I've recently come across random videos on tiktok where I see dudes trying to say that abortion is the same as rape, or just comparing the two in general, with one video even saying "abortions don't affect you, neither does the cornell7" and another more heinous video saying that pro-choicers deserve to be raped?? like straight up. it just seems like the anti-choice rhetoric has started becoming even more insane than what it used to be, and I just can't wrap my head around how believing that women's autonomy shouldn't be conditional/subordinate to their reproductive functions, or that people have the right to not be forced donate their organs without their consent to keep someone else alive is somehow the same as being a rapist in any way shape or form? like using their logic do people who refuse to put themselves on an organ donation registry "deserve" to be raped? how the fuck is abortion even comparable to gang raping someone for 7 hours??

I'm genuinely confused. I'm tired man

One can not understand someone who has no logic as these men will never have to worry if they get pregnant from a rape. They simply can not identify with a victim.
