So...
1) About 15-20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage.
2) Miscarriages suck, but they can be made to suck less through judicious application of modern medicine.
3) "modern medicine" is not popular with Republicans, particularly Republican pharmacists, who regularly Cartman out and go whatever I do what I want and refuse to fill various and sundry prescriptions because they want you to respect their authoritah.
"BPOC" also stands for "byproducts of conception" and if they hang out where the baby was gonna be ladies die. This tends to happen in the developing world more often because there are fewer hospitals and fewer gadgets and drugs. The WHO had a pretty good run where they were dealing with this problem and then the US threatened to cut off their aid if they continued to do so in 2016 so all the policies and procedures for dealing with BPOC after miscarriage are gone.
Women are going to die. They're going to die in the South and they're going to die because some uptight fucktard at a CVS won't prescribe a woman who just lost her baby the medicine necessary to keep the miscarriage from killing her too because CVS doesn't wanna face criminal charges for providing abortions. And it won't be some social media manager at Meta whose healthcare plan will airlift her to Philly for abortions, it'll be someone black or hispanic without options and Greg Abbott will send thoughts and prayers.
My grandmother was a nursing student in a London hospital pretty soon after WWII. She once told us a story of a woman brought to the hospital after a back alley abortion. She has always been Very Catholic but wishy-washy conservative otherwise, so I was expecting the 'sadness that someone would want an abortion', but she tempered it with how desperate the woman must have been because of how shitty London could be to single mothers at the time. But the main point of her story was horror at the way everyone reacted. The woman waited too long because she knew what was going to happen, and when she was finally brought to the hospital dying of sepsis the police immediately came start a murder investigation before she died, and doctors and nurses were spreading rumors that she must have been a prostitute, because why else would this have happened? Same shit all over again today. Fit's your 'purity model' from the other thread pretty well. The pure don't worry about prostitutes reaping the rewards prostitution and abortion, because the pure don't have to worry about that. -------------------------------------------------- Wherever I was going with that story is lost
