That is what your argument reminds me of. Except worse, because there were actual laws preventing slaveowners from murdering their slaves. Disgusting. Dehumanizing a child into a lump of cells is just the worst.

Ouch...
Points to the objectification of a human existence... Human as thing.
(ironic since we are now toying with recognizing LLMs as maybe 'feeling' AI people.)
The activist arguments to justify anger about pro-life perspectives often feature such claims...
proving that it is not about the baby (just a thing)... but about the mother.
It's a shame that we had a 'self-perpetuating' male-dominated government... but such things can't last because it's self-defeating.
It's all a game of society 'catch-up' now...
with many activist hell-bent on spiteful revenge metrics... it's where the social power is.
not really inexcusable considering other groups do it to.
In the need - we can only be witnesses - but we are still witnesses with voices.
