Not my personal point of view, but as I understand it, IVF is ‘abortion/murder’ because you don’t use all the viable embryos AND the sperm donor has to masturbate into a cup.
I heard on NPR about an abortion law that got rewritten in a red state because it would have effectively outlawed fertility clinics, and that was enough to convince enough of the republican politicians to rewrite it to be more narrowly-focused. So I suppose like most ideologies it depends on the individual
According to one story I’ve read, Nancy Reagan was always ‘meh’ on abortion, but because it was a big deal to the Party she was happy to parrot the hard line. However, when she learned that embryonic stem cells could help with Ronnie’s dementia she had a ‘change of heart’ and became ‘progressive.’ If it isn’t true for Nancy, I’m sure it is true for plenty of hardcore GOPs who absolutley believe that all abortion is murder except for the one that benefits them.
