@SteveMcRae_ @MRincorrection @RandalRauser Trump and Republicans undermine democracy. Denying the results of a free and fair 2020 election and attempting to violently overturn it. Rejecting election results and trying to stay in power despite losing is the opposite of democratic governance.

Trump saved Democracy. There is no question about it...like seriously, who can claim to be informed and not understand Trump quite literally saved America's Constitutional Republic from certain destruction by Obama, Hillary Clinton, Comey, Clapper, Schiff, Rice, Lynch and other traitors and seditionists who tried to not just rig the elections, but actively undermined a sitting US President by creating false intelligence reports.

Open any biology textbook and you’ll learn we all start life as a single-cell embryo, genetically distinct from our parents. Human biology 101. I think Dr. Phil was trying to argue the pro-abortion position that a human child’s “personhood” somehow gets assigned after birth. But he’s wrong there, too. Any time, in human history, when we deny personhood or human rights to humans because of ANY factor—race, age, sex, religion—we open the door to history’s worst human rights abuse. The Holocaust. The Rwandan Genocide. Slavery. A human embryo is small and dependent, but so is a human newborn or toddler. Your size, development, or level of dependency doesn’t dictate your humanity or worth. We have double homicide laws that penalize violence against preborn persons if an abusive partner perpetrates it. It’s the blindness of our era that ignorantly denies life before birth and strips all rights from the preborn child. Enough. It’s unscientific and profoundly unjust. If you’re a member of the human species, you have human rights. Period. The first human right is to not be murdered.

@RascRaccoon @LilaGraceRose It's a thought experiment. If we could transplant brains the same way we transplant kidneys. Do you think you would wake up as the same person?

@RayLongstreet @LilaGraceRose No, I mean you literally can't transplant a brain. Both the brain tissue and the rest of the body would be non-viable. They are very much interconnected.

@RascRaccoon @LilaGraceRose Yes, without a brain, you would essentially be dead. Even if your body were still biologically alive, there wouldn’t be a person there.

@RayLongstreet @LilaGraceRose Whilst there is a pathway for a “clone” this is still a copy of a person or life. A life that came from a fertilized egg. So it still became from a creation from a conception. You’re still wrong. And using that kind of an argument is very bad faith.

@RascRaccoon @LilaGraceRose You're not required to talk about brain transplants but you're never going to learn anything new if you continue to think like that.

@RayLongstreet @LilaGraceRose We're not talking about a transplant. We're talking about normal human development. Every single human has been a zygote, embryo, and fetus. Any feature therein is by design and part of the human condition. In other words, "An immutable characteristic for a human of this age."

@RayLongstreet @LilaGraceRose "Person" is a metaphysical concept based on subjective and arbitrary criteria. You don't get to kill another human because you deem them "non-persons". That's what slave owners and Nazi's did to justify their human rights violations.

@RayLongstreet @LilaGraceRose The fertilized egg is life. And has the same right to it as you or anyone else. Give me one person that did not come from that fertilized egg and we can have a discussion. Otherwise, life begins at conception. All human life. And that life has every right to it.

@secularprolife Hindsight bias. The claim treats “I” as a determinate individual, but twinning shows that individuality isn’t fixed at fertilization. An embryo can later divide into two individuals, which means there was not yet one individual at the moment of fertilization.

@StephCher55 @LilaGraceRose Conjoined twins actually support the relevance of individuality rather than undermine it. They are considered two persons precisely because there are two centers of consciousness, two minds, two perspectives.

@RayLongstreet @LilaGraceRose Individuality does not define humanity. Look at conjoined twins (a product of late monozygotic twinning after implantation) they are two separate human BEINGS connected via flesh and organs. Are they any less human? No. Are there lives any less deserving? No

@RascRaccoon @LilaGraceRose It’s a human life, and that matters, but I don’t think it’s the most important factor. What matters more is whether it’s a person, because rights are granted to persons, not simply to biological organisms.

@RussLaw37 @LilaGraceRose “Is it a human before? After? If not, what is it?” Before: it is an unfertilized human ovum. After: it is a fertilized human ovum. They are both individual human cells. Neither cell is a person.

Is it a human before? After? If not, what is it? Satisfies the criteria of life. Its DNA identifies it as human. What's the point of this contention? As I understand it, it very much is an individual, even in the short time frame where twinning is possible - then becomes two. The intrinsic value of a human organism is unchanged throughout the timeline.

You actually undo yourself with this argument. As individuality and duality are both still elements of life. The fact the single embryo can multiply adds the value of life, it does not diminish it. This is actually further proof of the life within this embryo and why it deserves our protection and love.

A girl was walking along a beach where thousands of starfish had washed up during a storm. One at a time she picked them up and threw them back into the ocean. A man approached her and said, “Why do this? You can’t save them all. You can’t begin to make a difference.” The girl picked up another starfish, hurled it into the ocean, and said, “I made a difference to that one.”

@elder_feliz @secularprolife An embryo is biologically human, but rights in a civilized society are granted to persons, not just human organisms. The disagreement is about when personhood begins, not whether killing innocent people is wrong.

@secularprolife The right to kill a human in-utero isn't a right in a civilized society. It's intentionally ending an innocent life. Fewer rights to do harm is a good thing for all freedom loving Americans

Scene: You’re hanging out with a pro-choice friend who doesn’t know you’re pro-life. She says “I can’t believe these attacks on reproductive rights. My daughters are going to have fewer rights than I had.” How do you respond?

On 12/30/25, Alexia Moore went to the hospital with abdominal pain and told staff she had taken misoprostol and oxycodone. She delivered a baby girl (estimated 22-24 weeks) who struggled to breathe and died an hour later. The coroner found oxycodone in the baby's system but couldn't test for misoprostol, and ruled the cause and manner of death undetermined. As of 3/4/26, Moore had been charged with attempted murder and drug-related charges. Her court hearing is supposed to be Monday, 3/23/26. Police believe Moore purchased misoprostol pills online. The bottle they obtained had no info about a physician, pharmacy, warning labels, etc. It has a fill date of 11/20/25, though apparently Moore didn't take any until 12/29/25. Abortion pills by mail don’t require verifying gestational age, who takes them, or when, and in this case meant a nearly viable baby girl died. Everyone should oppose this.
