    • Abstract:
      Let's all tell all the politicians, clearly and explicitly, in a way that is easy to understand and will help build the wide and deep political support the abortion-rights movement needs: Abortion rights are women's rights! That answer is consistent with my long-standing analysis of the scientific and ethico-political issues regarding Covid vaccination mandates/passports and bodily autonomy, and poses no problem for me.. As far as I'm concerned--and I think it's imperative for everyone in the abortion-rights movement to say--Justin Trudeau preventing women from entering his polity to get an abortion is no better than some Republican governor preventing women from leaving his. When abortion-rights opponents defend their hypocrisy by pointing out the similar hypocrisy of mandate-supporting abortion rights proponents, the strongest response is not a childish, never-ending "No, yours is worse!".
