You’re right, I made the mistake of engaging your falsehoods instead of immediately dismissing them out of hand. No, now that I come to think of it, vaccinations and forced birth are not the same because vaccinations do not require you to remove blood and tissue from yourself and give them to another person. So, apologies that I gave your devil’s advocate argument an ounce of credence.
I have not once defended anti-choice. I am pointing out that the arguments many people use to defend abortion-choice aren’t well thought out
Yes, by using pro-life baseless arguments and assertions in a devil’s advocate fashion to point out why you believe we shouldn’t immediately dismiss them as the irrational drivel they are.
A hypothetical is not a falsehood. Seriously.
What pro-life baseless arguments are you referring to?
A “hypothetical” in this case is no different than JAQing off, which is itself a modern version of playing devil’s advocate, but in bad faith.
You began (as you said in your original comment) with a losing premise, in that every argument you can put out there to try to lend any validity to pro-life views can and will be dismissed as baseless drivel that ignores the rights of the women that would be forced into organ donation slavery.
I will agree with the one premise that every argument that isn’t “the government can’t force people into organ donation slavery” can also be dismissed out of hand as being irrelevant to the only aspect of this topic that matters.
No, a hypothetical is just helping people see a logical inconsistency. If you agree that people should be free to refuse vaccinations with no negative consequences, then you are logically consistent when you leverage the “my body, my choice” stance. Is that your stance, for vaccines? Many people in this thread insist that there should be consequences to refusing a vaccine (no interaction with society, for example), but that is not really a choice then.
Dismissing points out of hand does not dispute those stances; it does not move to convince the people that hold those stances that the stances are flawed.
