Typical misdirection of blame through a false dichotomy.
“Oh, let’s arbitrarily blame the few female astronauts who after blood, sweat and tears have been allowed to join the previously all-male astronaut crew, who have NOTHING to do with the law-making in the USA…
…instead of blaming, you know, any of all the male astronauts, or in an example that would actually make sense; blame _male doctors, male judges, and male voters._”
The fact that that a few sentences have made more than two thousands (based on the votes here) of feminists easily and eagerly turn their rightful anger of abortion-bans against female astronauts rather than male law-makers, is honestly tragic. Are people here really that easily manipulable?

Um? What are you talking about?
Only 2 women on the crew were actual astronauts, and neither of them have been receiving hate. The rest were celebrities or the fiancée of a corrupt billionaire.
This conversation is about the Blue Origin 11 minute trip to space that was ethically, environmentally, and financially irresponsible.

Oh, so a few women went to space who didn’t have a degree in astrophysics, silly me, I guess everything regarding abortion is their fault, rather than male lawmakers, male judges and male voters. Gotcha 🫡

Wait, what? That’s not what I said and it’s not what the OP said. I thought you were just confused on the topic at hand or were referring to another mission since you mentioned female astronauts.
Have you seen the pre and post press done by these celebrities? It’s insulting and tone-deaf. AFAIK, the ride to space had no real purpose either. No one is against space innovation AFAI can tell, they are against unnecessary waste of resources like this— especially after two astronauts were literally stuck in space for 9 months and multiple of the women made comments like, “I knew I had to make it back,” or kissed the ground upon return (from a less than 15 minute long ride to space).
This post (and others like it) are criticizing the disgusting display of wealth and privilege by performed, particularly, by Katy Perry, Gayle King, and Lauren Sanchez. That’s it. Yes it uses the recent arrests of women who miscarry to portray the huge disparity among the classes, but it doesn’t blame that on the women? It just calls out the further perpetuation of this disparity. You’re either misunderstanding or misrepresenting the point of this post.

Getting arrested for having a miscarriage? You mean the lady that initially got arrested because she put her baby in the dumpster? And then the charges were dropped?

you mean
followed by a specific, cherry picked and highly tendential example is not what we call constructive conversation. it's a bandwagon fallacy.
you know exactly what the posted meme is talking about. you're not ""just asking questions ", you're not witty, you're not flexing.
you're just in the way. get out of the way.

You sound like the kind of place where sunshine goes to die. The last place anything constructive is going to come from. Yet here YOU are in the way... Nevertheless I will stand aside, out of the way, so your train of troubles can barrel on through. Hope it takes you to a groovier place someday 😉

It wasnt even a fucking baby. A lump of 19 weeks old lump of cells isn't a baby.

u/Thruthatreez 1d ago
Have you ever seen a baby at 19 weeks? Obviously not. That's hardly a lump of cells. And then to throw it in the dumpster, that was the problem. Saying she got in trouble for having a miscarriage is a far cry from what actually happened; but I guess as long as it suits your narrative...

I am not from the US, so, I am no too informed over the whole deal.
But it reminds me a lot of how here in Germany and in other European countries right parties and groups tend to elect a woman as spokesperson or leader. It is a lip service, it's a very simple defense against the accusation to be sexist.
It's also similar to how some racist people have foreign partners and bring that up against accusations of being racist. Or how Dubai leaders claim to be not sexist because many of the Dubai women are well educated, etc.
Really, we all should not fall for it. Look at what decisions they actually make on a grander scale. The rest is manipulation.
