The GOP labels everything communism, but their abortion laws are as draconian as the ones enacted..why that’s funny…in Communist Romania. Contraception was banned in Romania, they’ll try their best to make it impossible to obtain

And yes, the most progressive societies respect women’s rights, access to birth control, abortion, and mat leave. You don’t see the same teen pregnancy rate as the US. The maternal mortality rate for a 1st world country like the US is abysmal
What they had realized is that access to birth control is key to providing educational and professional opportunities for women, and is key to lifting people out of poverty. Over time they noted that the literacy level had really improved. Fairly progressive for a Catholic country at the time
My father is Mexican. Came to Canada in ‘75. Even in MX, a Catholic country, in ‘74 they passed “La Ley de Poplación,” law that made it mandatory for govt clinics to provide free family planning advice and birth control.

There's a reason why the best rated across important issues - education, health, family, etc. - are the opposite. 🤷🏻♀️
The best trick the GOP ever pulled was making China the bad guy while being the same.
