Wrong. Not caring anywhere in the USA would also be pro-choice since Roe v Wade overturned laws in all 50 states against abortion.



That was before 40 years of culture wars on the issue. Today the majority of the country is pro choice.


Which, if true, only further proves my point, which is that to "not care" is to be fine with the way things currently are—abortion being legal.


Just because you don’t understand that availability matters, people getting shot because they do legal things matters, and your entire entire Supreme Court being defined by and chosen on their attitude to a subject matters, doesn’t mean they don’t matter.

Attempting to obtain an abortion in Texas will have dramatically different outcomes to that of Denmark. Appreciating this is true should not be controversial.


The people in Texas are actively fighting against the status quo of Roe. If the people in TX simply took a neutral position, the status quo would reign. Thus, the example is a bad one.
