This total obsession the left has with abortion is just plain sick. Weren’t these the same people who years ago told us something to the effect they wanted abortions to be “legal, safe but RARE”?
Abortions were first legalized in the Soviet Union in 1920. In some ways it’s a core policy for communism since it coarsens a people to view life as having lesser or no value. There are many ripple effects throughout society as a result. Interestingly enough the Soviet Union seeing the effect it had on birth rates banned it around 1936 for the following 19 years after which it was legalized again and remains so.
The left in the US of course followed the USSR lead and with their success of Roe in 1973 like you say became obsessed with it. I think part of it is demonic and a lot of it is wrapped up in the sexual revolution that happened prior to Roe. Free and easy sex sort of requires it as insurance.
