Technically, ovulation without fertilization would be the benchmark.

Also, you probably can’t miscarry. Which happens 10-15% of the time on average, and is much higher for some individuals.

These people are out to lunch. How stupid, uneducated, and emotional could someone possibly be?

The only people who are stupider are undecided or non-voters.

Not to mention the statistic that ~50% of fertilized eggs fail to implant. So getting your period may be evidence of murder.

Probably even higher, closer to 70%, of the time.

Last data I saw was 50, but if it is actually closer to 70 that means it is impossible to kill more babies than God does.

Five years from now, red states will have laws that say every woman’s menstrual tissue must be collected for analysis in case the egg was fertilized without implanting. If this happens, she will be charged with murder.

Oh, and women will still need to buy their own menstrual products and pay sales tax on them.

God, tell me about it. I’ve seen so many reactionary takes with what’s going on in Gaza and the US support for it, insisting they’re staying home over it, when if they thought out the problem for like 5 seconds more, they’d realize what absolute children they’re being.

Not only is not voting going to result in America taking a MORE extreme stance on Gaza, but it also invites endless suffering from this and other extremist positions, that will hurt us, our families, and our loved ones. Real fucking strategery there guys. I really hope I’ll have it in me to rub their faces in the inevitable consequences, but realistically I’ll be too much of a shell to care after seeing everyone I love suffer.

This works in their favor as these pieces of shit also love the prison slavery labor system we implement to feed major corporations with slave free labor.

The more ridiculous felonies they can pin on people the more slaves cheap labor they provide.
