Reply #9: What exactly would get the Pope off our ass?

[Der Blaue Engel]

I'm not sure I'm following the gist of your message. If you're suggesting we back off of supporting a woman's right to choose on the pretext that the 'pubs will never get rid of it, no thanks.

If anyone thinks that rich, white Repubs who want abortions wouldn't get them anyway if Roe v Wade were overturned, you're not paying attention to history. Rich, white girls have always had access to abortion.

In addition, keeping the poverty class in poverty allows the rich to keep their wealth, and there is nothing that keeps people impoverished better than taking away their ability to control their own reproduction.

As for Popes? Those elitist white fucks have been controlling people for centuries by ensuring that the poor stay poor and pregnant.

Don't kid yourself into thinking the RW would be happy if poor minorities stopped having babies. They'd run out of grist for their mills really fast.
