Abortion rights activists were unhappy with the president’s comments, as millions of people are being denied access to abortion care in nearly half the country.

I feel like this is the best response we could get from someone who’s got a more right wing personal stance on abortion
“I don’t really like the idea of it, personally, due to my beliefs, but you know it’s still absolutely none of my business what other people do with their bodies and I support their right to choose. My opinion doesn’t dictate their freedom.”
I feel like at one point that was the general right wing stance. When did Republicans stop caring about liberty? Was it when the fascists showed up and bilked them all?
No shit you don’t like the idea of it, Biden, neither does anyone else. Nobody’s happy that sometimes it needs to be done.
It a bit surprising given that he mentioned being catholic, too - the catholic church has generally taken a pretty firm stance on abortion.
That said, I grew up in the UCC, and it resonates perfectly with the way that they emphasized tolerance. If somebody wants to do something that you don’t like, that’s absolutely fine as long as they don’t force you to participate - in this case, the tolerant, “christian” take on abortion should be “I don’t want one, but if you do, go for it.”
What is the UCC?
United Church of Christ. From what he said it sounds like the UCC would let me be, or let me be me so let me see they tried to shut me down on MTV but it feels so empty without me
