The left is becoming increasingly hostile.
They are forcing everybody to take a political stance.
Now an anti-American anthem protester demanded people support one Democrat cause.
U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team star Megan Rapinoe talks more about politics than she does soccer.
It doesn’t seem as though she ever discusses the nuances of the sport or matches; it’s always something political.
Rapinoe is stridently left-wing, meaning anybody that does not agree with her is somehow morally deficient, her parents included.
She admitted she was baffled that they voted for Donald Trump.
Now Rapinoe is back on the pulpit stumping for abortion in light of the recent decision by the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Rapinoe said during a Zoom call with reporters, “How sad a day this is for me personally, for my teammates, for just all of the people out there who this is going to affect…Pro-choice means that you get to choose…Pro-choice allows other people to be pro-life if that is what works for them or that is what their beliefs are or if that is where they’re at in their life. Pro-life doesn’t allow anybody to make a choice.”
Choice ends at the taking of another life, which is why the abortion debate exists in the first place.
With the overturning of Roe, each state will get to draft its own abortion laws.
So deep-blue states like New York and California will continue to allow for abortion up until the point of birth, no questions asked.
In fact, California is debating whether or not to allow babies born after a botched abortion to die.
Former Virginia governor Ralph Northam argued in favor of that ghoulish position.
Rapinoe continued, “Obviously, you can understand from an individual perspective how difficult it is to live in a country where you have a constant, unrelenting violent tide against you, an onslaught as a woman…And it would be as a gay person, and as a non-binary person, as a trans person. Whoever this is going to affect because it affects a lot more than just women or cis [gendered] women. It really does affect us all.”
It’s amazing how leftists suddenly remembered what the word “woman” means.
Rapinoe recently argued that biological males should be allowed to compete in women’s sports.
But now that the abortion debated has been re-ignited, all of the nonsensical gender arguments go out the window.
Rapinoe added, “We know that this will disproportionately affect poor women, Black women, brown women, immigrants, women in abusive relationships, women who have been raped, women and girls who have been raped by family members. Who, you know what, maybe just didn’t make the best choice. And that’s no reason to be forced to have a pregnancy.”
First, rape and incest are exceedingly rare reasons for abortion.
Rape and incest account for 0.085% and 0.001% of all abortions, respectively.
Many states already carve out exceptions for rape and incest, but that does not matter because pro-abortion zealots still would not be in favor of restricting abortion with those hard cases off the table.
Also, studies show that women making over $47,000 are more likely to have an abortion than women below the poverty line.
Progressives like Rapinoe always use minorities and poor people as mascots for what they want to do.
Rapinoe also added an appeal to men, saying, “You’ve been silent to us, as a whole…Stand up, say something. This is your wife, this is your sister, this is your friend, this is your girlfriend, this is the mother of your children. This is all of us. And you are allowing a violent and consistent onslaught on the autonomy of women’s bodies, on women’s rights, on women’s minds, on our hearts, on our souls.”
Rapinoe completely ignores that women make up nearly half of the pro-life movement.
Leftists demand they get their way regardless of the law or the opinions of others who disagree with them.
