The white supremacist origins of "public choice theory," the bedrock of contemporary libertarian thought

You need to back up and question whether your opinion on that issue even matters

Easy answer;

@swiggy36

take your condescending attitude and shove it

You first, comrade.

Considering that pregnancy is a life changing condition that you personally will never have to endure firsthand, it’s fair to say that your opinion is highly irrelevant to those of us who possess the ability to become pregnant.

(I know by this point your comments have been eaten and the account you started in order to trolley has probably been nuked, but nevertheless I still needed to get that off my chest.)

Self ownership is creepy moral projection

@Heraclito

The idea of applying the concept of ownership to a human being is ludicrous, even in a case so seemingly benign as “self-ownership.” Ownership is not an applicable category to human beings. You cannot own yourself in any meaningful sense of the word. You cannot own yourself in the way that you own an automobile or a knife or a book or a dildo.

Preach.

Self sovereignty is a much better term for conveying agency over one’s own life, as it doesn’t imply ‘chattel ownership.’
