Reminds me of some of the descriptions I read about ISIS slaughter.
Abortion is not as bad as ISIS conduct because it is done in private clinics and decapitated heads are not displayed in the public square.
We are so much more humane than ISIS and we should be proud of it.
Why? Because their entire life they are given a false narrative which dehumanizes the baby. Its a fetus, not a baby.
Certainly in China and India girls are aborted much more frequently than boys. In the U.S. I would imagine we engage in equal opportunity murder.
They know it is a developing human. They just choose not to acknowledge it.
Many of them know it but its been dehumanized and they go with it. No excuses, its the same as the nazi prison guards.
“In the U.S. I would imagine we engage in equal opportunity murder”
Except when it comes to race.
India DOESN'T abort its girls. They always want sons but they love their daughters VERY much and don't abort their girls like the Chinese do. Girls have to pay a HUGE dowry to get married, so having them co$t$. But, the Indians aren't stupid so girls live because they bear children. Duh.
I do always tell the TRUE story of China's discovery of amniocenteses and how they aborted SO MANY female fetuses than an entire generation of males had no women to marry. Those poor men were called the "Bare Branches."
I took some Cantonese way back when and learned that the Chinese word for GOOD is "ho"--said with the correct tone.
The Chinese have much fewer vocabulary words than we do but they put TONES on words. i.e. "gao" can mean either nine or socks, depending on the tone.
Their tones go from low to high, low to medium, all low and all the combinations thereof. THAT is why it often sounds sing-song to us--because it IS.
They still want only sons but now with the ONE-BABY policy the BOY baby because UBER imperative, so female fetuses still get the axe.
ANYWAY, the pictograph for GOOD in Chinese is a picture of a woman with a small boy, saying that having a SON is good. Their anti-daughter attitude is so deep that it's part of their everyday vocabulary and "writing."
THANK YOU, LORD, for letting me be born in the West, in a Christian country!!
