How researchers test for traces of misoprostol and mifepristone — the two drugs used in medication abortions — in women who have experienced a miscarriage.
I don’t understand the obsession around the world with controlling women’s bodies.
Prior to the raise of Christianity, women were largely in charge of religious activities and controlled a lot of power. Part of the draw of Christianity was taking that power away from women.
The abortion chaos ties itself to the Black Death when 2/3 of the human population was wiped out. Religious institutions controlled most of the power and used it to push a narrative that families should have more children. The problem is that today our population is huge and religious people don’t understand the origin of that thinking, so they keep pushing us towards over population.
If one wanted to learn more about these things, what book(s) might one start with?
I’d suggest taking college courses in mythology, divinity and theology, and culture politics & war.
Book wise your going to want to look at classical philosophy with a focus on Greece. Romans 16:1 and I Corinthians 11 give a moderate perspective if you like Masoretic Text.
I know the word “tour” is a typo but somehow it still works
lol, already fixed it
It always starts with abortion rights, every time they want to control women and ban LBGTQ+. Poland is known for wanting to keep the ‘traditional family unit’ as it is and cracking down on everyone that’s different.
Next is to take away their financial independence with the ‘stay home and take care of the children’ fase. So no way out.
Then comes the ‘I’m the man of the house, so you do as I say or I’ll report you to the authorities’ fase. Lots of marital rapes and domestic violence in this fase…
Then it’s the marrying out your 14 year old daughter’s to your friends to get any sort of power… Sorry I’m describing handmaid’s tale at this point. Or any fascists state…
But I heard with the latest elections young Polish people might turn things around.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In another study also published in Molecules, members from the same team used the technique to analyze two independent samples containing traces of misoprostol, the other drug commonly known to induce pregnancy.
Isolated media reports show that Polish officials have increasingly taken to raiding the homes of women under suspicion of facilitating illegal abortions.
In interviews with Human Rights Watch, doctors, lawyers and a woman who had a legal medication abortion described “sweeping and speculative investigations, and overbroad searches.”
Since 2020, at least six women have died in Poland after doctors performed a medically necessary abortion either too late or not at all, citing fear of consequences or reasons of conscience, according to research by the European Parliament.
It is an attack on fundamental and human rights and should be unthinkable in a liberal democracy in 2021," said Evelyn Regner, a Member of the European Parliament from the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats.
The Wroclaw Medical University researchers have cited the above Lancet statement as the reasoning behind their search for traces of abortion pills in women’s bodies.
The original article contains 895 words, the summary contains 173 words. Saved 81%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
misoprostol, the other drug commonly known to induce pregnancy.
Labor. It induces labor, not pregnancy lol. 🤦♂️
