ATTENTION PROGRESSIVE MEN. No one has been more critical of Elizabeth May's stance on abortion than I have. But reproductive justice is under attack all the time, and Elizabeth May is hardly the reason that access is as limited as it already is.

The abortion apologist nonsense Elizabeth May spouts is completely toxic and absolutely enables attitudes that result in limiting reproductive rights. Do not attempt to mansplain this to me.

But if the only time you post about this issue is during elections, and if you primarily target those posts at the party that is the biggest threat to the party you support*, it honestly doesn't feel to me like you care very much about this issue.

* AND THE PARTY I SUPPORT TOO.

It seems like you are using it to score points, and as someone who can actually get pregnant it's feeling pretty gross to me. It doesn't feel like you are concerned that rights will actually be rolled back, it feels like you are gleeful to have something to go after her for.

(To be clear, I CAN'T STAND ELIZABETH MAY. I think she's manipulative and disingenuous. Her Wikipedia entry literally references an argument I had with her on Twitter.)

Anyway I'm sure this is going to go great and I won't regret tweeting this at all.
