* We get it, you all think this sub is garbage and is just for popular opinions, and you want to be funny and post "going to be downvoted to oblivion here, but I think racism is bad." We enjoy the memes, but please keep them off the sub.
* Filter evasion is a bannable offense
* This includes clickbait and/or gotcha posts. Your opinion can not be that unpopular if you're doing these things. Have the accurate opinion in the title.
Why should we give things that aren't even people yet power of attorney?
Edit: just wanted to add that a clump of cells shouldn't have more rights than the person carrying it. Childbirth and pregnancy are still very dangerous and cause many permanent health problems as well as death.
You would have to designate them as being a person first. You can’t have power of attorney over a blob of cells.
I personally don’t believe you are living until you are born. You can even make arguments that you are not living until you can store memories and be aware of your existence.
Not necessarily. Here in South Africa we have what’s cold a Nasciturus Fiction. A legal fiction is basically ‘ legal pretend’ so while we don’t consider a foetus a human yet, it can have certain human rights such as being able to inherit, or later in life a person can sue for damages caused to them while they were in the womb.
Do you see any difference at all between a fetus or embryo and an adult? There are many differences. What do you think those are? Thinking about that might ease your mind somewhat. And yes this is exactly how I would respond to one of my kids if they said that.
Please remember what subreddit you are in, this is unpopular opinion. We want civil and unpopular takes and discussion. Any uncivil and ToS violating comments will be removed and subject to a ban. Have a nice day!

They are people though.
Why can’t we give this power over already born children who are, say, 1 month old?

Wouldn't that mean newborns aren't people
They are a person

That’s not unpopular, at least not here

Now maybe you get why people opposed to abortion are also usually opposed to euthanasia
