Reposted by MaijaCourtney Milan @courtneymilan.com · 6hAn important thing to note in this period of fascism is that fascists are historically not good at government. Their entire shtick is "oh yeah? Well that's so-and-so's fault." Actual governance requires you to have a solution that is not "well let's fuck those marginalized guys up." 3675146

Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 3hA "grandma" is my age. The only grace I'm extending to a "grandma" is that they might not know where "Mute thread" option is (the "..." in the lower right of every post in the thread) or how to detach a quote ("..." on your post >"edit interaction settings" > "allow quote posts" > off). 150
Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 3hNah this is what a personal reply looks like (they believe "elective surgery" means "not medically necessary which is not true. "Elective" means "not urgent" which abortion *is*). 140
Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 4hOkay but it's like they did a search for "pro-abortion" to c/p replies to which is a bit on the offensive. They need to go for a long walk and consider why they need to force *their* feelings about abortion onto others and how that is incompatible with what they claim to feel about bodily autonomy. 050
Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 4hIt would be fine for her to say that *for herself* she has complicated feelings about abortion. Folks are taking issue with her copy-pasting her word choice thirty-seven (37) times to anyone posting they are pro-abortion. Insisting that "pro-abortion" is "sinister" not supportive of abortion access. 130

Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 4hOkay so you're really underscoring "not that kind of dr" here because you also don't seem to know what "elective surgery" means. And you've also revealed that you would rather folks did not choose abortions, actually. 030

Reposted by MaijaAndrea Grimes @andreagrimes.com · 22/11/2024Abortion stigma does so much more harm than y'all know. I see it every day in my work. "Nobody wants this, nobody would choose this" type rhetoric is so, so damaging. You're free to think it, but keep it to yourself, I beg you. Because somebody who doesn't need to hear it from you absolutely will. 328726
Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 5hIt is so weird how allergic you are to "pro-abortion". Almost like you'd prefer that folks not be in favour of abortions. 0110
Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 5hOh so "pro-abortion" has a stigma attached, for *you*, is what you're saying. Like, what is the sinister aspect it puts in your mind? Or are you, in fact, a teensy tiny bit *not* pro-abortion which would be... what's the word for it... ? 1130
Maija @maijasauna.bsky.social · 5hYour weird copy-paste replies to everyone saying they are pro-abortion sure does seem like you are also very not in favour of a woman deciding what she thinks of medical procedures. 060
