@Bdhital84 @claregarry6 @tristanever1201 @rjpark @MaolanF @Kimber9mmUC @alex_kobylarz @colmod99 @ProfJoannaHowe @melanieselwood @FLOTUS @POTUS Correct 👍

These barbaric monsters like @melanieselwood who advocate for baby torture and murder are exposed by this bill. There is no reason for a late term abortion. Ever. It is monstrously cruel to the baby and it does not fix a single health problem for the mother that could not be fixed by inducing a live delivery early. The sole reason for feticide in a late term abortion is to kill the child. 75% of late term abortions in SA kill perfectly healthy children and unlike Melanie, I don't think we should be killing the disabled children either. Help us defeat the evil Greens and pass the first prolife bill in Australian history next Wednesday as we seek to ban third trimester abortion👇 SA RALLY FOR BABIES | Wednesday 17 June | 5.30-6.30PM North Terrace, outside SA Parliament | We need you ❤️

@DermotKearney3 @claregarry6 @Bdhital84 @tristanever1201 @rjpark @Kimber9mmUC @alex_kobylarz @colmod99 @ProfJoannaHowe @melanieselwood @FLOTUS @POTUS I will continue praying for her 🙏

@claregarry6 @Bdhital84 @tristanever1201 @rjpark @MaolanF @Kimber9mmUC @alex_kobylarz @colmod99 @ProfJoannaHowe @melanieselwood @FLOTUS @POTUS You will actually.

@DermotKearney3 @claregarry6 @Bdhital84 @tristanever1201 @rjpark @Kimber9mmUC @alex_kobylarz @colmod99 @ProfJoannaHowe @melanieselwood @FLOTUS @POTUS 💯💯💯💯💯💯

@claregarry6 @Bdhital84 @tristanever1201 @rjpark @MaolanF @Kimber9mmUC @alex_kobylarz @colmod99 @ProfJoannaHowe @melanieselwood @FLOTUS @POTUS This is untrue. The majority are not done for reasons of "non-viability". You have been misinformed if you believe otherwise.

@TheAkoFiles @WatchdogIRL @MichealMartinTD @EoinLenihan 🥂

@MichealMartinTD I’m reading Vandalising Ireland by @EoinLenihan, have you read it?

If you get an opportunity, I hope you enjoy reading a book today.

@DermotKearney3 @Emilie_Dye 💯

@Emilie_Dye Do you support abortion of babies who have a diagnosis of Tridomy 21? How about cleft palate or club foot? By the way 1-2% of 300,000 (in the UK alone) is 3,000 to 6,000...hardly insignificant numbers. Regardless of the stage of gestation, all abortions are gravely unjust.

One of the things that changed my mind on the topic of abortion were the blatant lies from the pro-life camp. No, 75% of late term abortions are not healthy pregnancies. - 77% are due to severe genetic abnormalities - 9% from a direct physical threat to the mum - 14% due to severe psychosocial circumstances (ie the late discovery of pregnancy due to rape or incest, life threatening DV, mum in psychosis) Thankfully, late-term only accounts for 1-2% of abortions. And none of those circumstances are ones where forcing a birth is a positive result.

@DermotKearney3 @WickAbortions @Emilie_Dye Agreed

@WickAbortions @Emilie_Dye Are you suggesting abortion of babies with Trisomy 21 is justified or justifiable? Yes - my problem is most definitely with all abortions. They are all acts of grave injustice.

@DermotKearney3 @tiffany_two @WickAbortions @Emilie_Dye “Them both”🙏

@tiffany_two @4TheGood1 @WickAbortions @Emilie_Dye ...as is her pre-natal child. Love and respect and protect them both.

@DermotKearney3 @tiffany_two @WickAbortions @Emilie_Dye 👏

@tiffany_two @4TheGood1 @WickAbortions @Emilie_Dye Encouraging and supporting a mother to continue her pregnancy and not to consider the intentional murder of her child is most definitely loving and respecting and protecting both her and her child. There are always better options than abortion for both.

@DermotKearney3 @WickAbortions @tiffany_two @Emilie_Dye 💯

@WickAbortions @tiffany_two @Emilie_Dye I have stated many many times that abortion is murder. You might care to browse through all my posts. They are very well worth reading.

@WickAbortions @DermotKearney3 @tiffany_two @Emilie_Dye It’s murder …… Why don’t you put some respect on @DermotKearney3

@DermotKearney3 @tiffany_two @4TheGood1 @Emilie_Dye So it is murder now. Usually murders should get lifetime sentences to prison. But you are advocating protecting her. Still seems like you still don't think it is murder. You moved the goal post because I called you out on it.

@meekazzz @EoinLenihan Idle talk … Heidegger described idle talk as a form of “inauthentic communication “ where people simply repeat clichés or information without genuinely engaging with the subject

@EoinLenihan It’s the human condition, we bury ourselves in the mundane, because the truth and chaos that surrounds us frightens us. Beckett pointed this out. Winnie in Happy Days loved idle talk it was her escape 🤷‍♂️

I'm taking my time going back through Being and Time. The part that has really stood out this time and with the Irish context in mind is his ideas relating to "idle talk", "curiosity" and "ambiguity" and how they reinforce one another to distract us from focusing on pursuing meaningful experiences. His idea of Verfallen is the culmination of these three factors which keep us essentially and obliviously trapped in the mundane averageness of the everyday. The obvious examples of this is social media. Scrolling through idle talk on our timelines we are allowed to feel like experts on Palestine, US healthcare, historic Northern Irish sectarianism. Our curiosity flits from one to the other and we get just enough feedback to feel like we're "in the know", tuned in and able to contribute something to the noise. But for Heidegger these are powerful distractions from focusing on the (limited by our own lifespan as temporal beings) few authentic and fulfilling possibilities open to us. I am still in the middle of it - just getting into the section on Verfallen and Thrownness but there is a hint of the Biblical original sin about Verfallen which I think is a very useful means of looking at the underlying malaise in Irish society without resorting to a reactive - we need to go back to religion answer while not excluding it either.
