But then, you said they're not, which implies you're pro-life, but then, if you're praising what I said, I was specifically calling out the actions of those who identify as "pro-life" (and calling them out as "anti-choice" will not get them to be any less stubborn), when you're contrasting something I said, told me not to do this, and... what the hell are you talking about? This is why I don't often respond to you. What you say is puzzling to the point I can't offer a suitable rebuttal.
No, it's not good to be woke.
As part of the unwoke vanguard it's a tactical mistake to praise Suth Korea the way you did in this thread.

Okay, thanks for clarifying.

IIRC, Hillary Clinton is a firm supporter of the right to choose an abortion, except for sex-selective abortions. I wonder if South Korea will put in that exception.

This is really dumb. The population of Korea is upsidedown right now. There are way more old people than young people at the moment, so they should be encouraging people having babies not abortions.

Reminds me of Ireland and how around the same time they legalized abortions there was another movement to bring in millions of north african and mid eastern immigrants to shore up the population numbers.

No surprise ABS is anti-choice. Still, it's a matter of fucking civil rights and personal liberty. Your very same logic could be applied to so much gun deaths here. It's getting out of control, so why not ban and seize them? Yet you'd freak out if we suggested that, aye?

Overpopulation is a severe problem. Not every country is 90% empty space like the US.

Conflating legalized murder with legal possession of a device that can be used for murder is a very poor argument, but please make the suggestion. I would love to see you twist logic and reason into knots equivocating the two.

So it's ok that their population shrinks and they don't bring in millions of immigrants to replace them?
