After Roe v. Wade fell, the National Domestic Violence Hotline saw a 99-percent increase in callers reporting that people were trying to control their reproductive choices.

      Yeah, right? We should not give that bullshit that much attention! Just let them rott in the hellscape of their own making and everyone that is cool can come over to Europe and enjoy the sweet healthcare and free education.

        Europe also has these people… it’s not something easy to escape geographically. Besides, it’s fucked up to abandon the children and women trapped in there.

    Well of course they are, anything and everything they can use to control their victims will be used until we make them give it up.

      In the year before Roe fell, roughly 1,230 people told the National Domestic Violence Hotline that they had endured some kind of what anti-domestic abuse activists call “reproductive coercion,” including being denied an abortion or being forced into one. In the year since it was overturned, 2,442 people said the same. That’s a 99-percent increase.

      Let’s not pretend that banning abortion just didn’t make any kind of difference.
