If leftist women want ‘a better quality of life,’ Europe won’t provide it
American Thinker ^ | 11/22/2024 | Jack Hellner

Posted on 11/22/2024 7:37:12 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Ever since the Dobbs decision, the media and other Democrats said that millions of women would die because they wouldn’t have unlimited access to abortion.  Instead of calling it abortion, they called it “reproductive rights.”

Now we get an article saying that women are looking to move to Europe to get a better quality of life because of the anxiety-inducing political landscape in the U.S.

Women are seeking a better quality of life

While lots of the women are ready for a grand adventure, many are looking to move to a country that aligns more with their values, ranging from the universal health care found in every European country to fleeing the anxiety-inducing political landscape in the U.S. This year, 77% American adults say the future of the U.S. is the most significant source of stress in their lives, followed by the economy and 2024 presidential election, according to a survey by the American Psychological Association.

Throughout Europe, there are limits on abortion, so where are the deaths, and why aren’t media outlets, liberals, and women protesting over there?  Why would women want to move there if reproductive rights and unlimited abortion are the issues that cause anxiety?

Another thing that the media and other Democrats complain loudly about is that Republicans want to limit “gender-affirming” surgery and puberty-blockers for minors and believe parents must be involved in the decision. 

In Europe, they are restricting trans operations because medical professionals say they are dangerous.  I thought Democrats cared about science. 

European Countries Restrict Trans Health Care for Minors

Citing insufficient research, European health bodies from Sweden to France are taking a more conservative approach to gender-affirming care for minors.

Heh. Wait till they find out many rights they enjoy here are gone there. Maybe it will be an educational experience.

I had a friend in HS who (for some reason) thought the US was incredibly anti-Semitic. Everyone over here just hated the Jews. So ... he moved to France.

Yeah, he came back. Decided that Europe was a bit more anti-Semitic than the US. (History could have told him that.)

A lot of delicate people seem to think that Europe has solved all the problems in the world. It’s very not true.

Leave your home country and try to make a living in a foreign country because you don’t think you’ll be able to kill your babies on demand—in case you get pregnant. That’s one heck of a life plan there, ladies.

I suggest they try the Middle Eastern Muslim countries. They will enjoy their new found Utopia where women are put on a pedestal and catered to.

so they think

Strange, I used to feel that stress too, but it went away Nov 6.

Shhhh! Let’s keep it a secret. Let them go, but make them choose a country with some skin in the game. Have allegiance to one country at a time, gain citizenship in the new country to renounce their US citizenship.

My soon married a Dutch girl. They just stay high or wasted like the Germans. I remember wondering why there were cigarette vending machines on the streets of West Germany. Self medication.

Considering that there is a possibility of war breaking out, Europe is probably not the safest bet.

While the idiots in France's government have made abortion a "right," still the same government doesn't want it talked about in terms of numbers.

One reads: '

"In February 2024, presenter Aymeric Pourbaix, during the Catholic programme 'En quête d’esprit,' broadcast every Sunday on the conservative channel CNews, showed an infographic on the causes of death, ranking abortion as the leading cause, with 73 million deaths each year worldwide. That translates to 52% of annual deaths, far ahead of cancer (10 million) and smoking (6.2 million). The journalist's comments sparked a wave of indignation in the mainstream press, on the grounds that abortion cannot be considered a 'cause of death' because the foetus should not be considered a living being."

Source: French TV Channel Fined for Calling Abortion the World's Leading Cause of Death

So all this American Leftist noise is sad, but amusing. The American Left women who want to flee to Europe for abortion will only self-extinguish themselves. But there's the chance of being "culturally enriched" by European migrants.

The phenomenon of wanting to cease procreating, as evidenced by some, merely means they will be "the end." And others without their self-loathing will continue. Demographics is all over time.

And it's hilarious that the examples they usually cite are things built by white men fifty or more years ago - that the collectivists haven't got around to destroying, yet. :)

The USSC finally sent the abortion issue back to the States where it belong all the time. If a given State has a law preventing such, just go to another State and kill your baby in the womb up to childbirth in many cases.

If you're so damn dedicated to killing your child, than just go to a State that allows it and quit your whining. I'm so sick of you MURDERING women, I refuse to talk to another one of these POS.

They may turn out to be a criminal or they may turn out to be the next Stephen Hawking, with all his ailments. So what. Take care of them.

Ana K. was noting how her former Leftist ‘friends’ are just plain evil now, and also compared what they want to Europe, where killing babies more than 12 weeks is highly limited, and 8 months is out of the question - for example. Also not mentioned is voting integrity over there. We take weeks to count elections, Europe it does it in one night, and there is NO DEBATE about Voter ID, because no side can make a case against it, except to cheat.

The Supreme Court self policed and realized that Roe was bad law and changed it.

Liberals believe they’re ‘enlightened’ to believe the USA is some sick place where people are brainwashed into thinking it is great. They have a vacation in Europe and become enamored with the language, culture, and history....think it is ‘so’ more advanced. They become apologists for the USA.

The reality is most Europeans are brainwashed into collectivist thinking - the will of the collective trumps the rights of the individual. This is reflective in their laws and what is going on every day now, arrests made over an ‘offensive’ online comment. Can’t have that. The idea that the rights of the individual come first and ARE IN THE BEST INTERESTS of the collective is a foreign concept. Only in the USA.

They virtue signal about ‘free healthcare’ which isn’t free, the endless ‘social programs’ when they have declining populations to pay for it, then saying the solution is ‘import migrants’ when everyone has the same ‘solution’...the math doesn’t add up. Plus, the ‘migrants’ they’re talking about are often from the 3rd world....so you bring it with them.

I’m so tired of these people. I’m an immigrant, from UK. I get them. I get why they’re wrong. They don’t see it, it took me many years to understand.

Yes! Roe vs Wade was a bad decision since the Supremes forgot Amendments 9 and 10, and could not equate anything from the body of the Constitution.

Hey women, you want to kill the growing human baby within you, you still can. Just go to the State that allows that MURDER! I despise you selfish non-human creatures, and I'm not even religious.

Europe has started most of the biggest wars in the world in the last few centuries. It is a planetary cancer.
