Reproductive rights groups erupted in outrage Monday after ProPublica revealed that a Georgia woman died from delayed medical care caused by the US state's restrictive abortion law.
Right? After people actually died as a consequence of this law, the governor’s office is still dismissing concerns. Outrageous.
ProPublica asked the governor’s office on Friday to respond to cases of denied care, including the two abortion-related deaths, and whether its exceptions were adequate. Spokesperson Garrison Douglas said they were clear and gave doctors the power to act in medical emergencies. He returned to the state’s previous argument, describing ProPublica’s reporting as a “fear-mongering campaign.”
How is it fear-mongering once actual people have actually died?
That’s the whole point of having so many kids. More parishioners to work in the fields to fill the coffers and if a few die no worries we’ll make new ones.
And is also a plus side of the “controlling women” argument - if they have a fuck ton of kids and don’t work, they don’t have many options if they ever decide to leave.
It’s going to be women who spearhead the work to overturn these bans. Republicans don’t give a flying fuck about children being murdered in schools; the deaths of those “slutty sinful evil babykilling whores” but not me, I’m a good person who needed my abortion! isn’t going to make them change their minds. Remember: to a Republican, any fact which doesn’t conform to their worldview (like abortion bans increasing the number of dead women, or comprehensive sex ed and easy-to-access birth control reduces abortions) is just simply wrong.
Control over women is the point. Their deaths do not matter to these people.

Power over others is a core value of the hierarchical belief structure of conservatism.

Yup, it’s why they’re against no fault divorce as well.
