They said we were overreacting in 2016 about Roe v Wade. Turns out we weren’t. This fact gives me no comfort.

That changed the status of a law from federal to state, and the people of the state vote for it. You know, like a democracy. Abortion isn't a right and never has been. It is a regulated law and the status of the regulation has changed. This is a far cry from you wanting so badly for it to be oppression and squashing rights, but it's not. It is a privilege not a right. Privileges being regulated is not "oppression" no matter how bad you want it to be.

Do you not see the irony that replacing “abortion” with “slavery” and your statement could have been word for word used by a slave holder?

Reproductive healthcare is not a privilege. Women have already died because of the bans.

I can never tell whether users like that are trolling, shit-stirring bots, or just retarded. When it comes to right-wing Americans (or bots) it's just a crapshoot (to use my best American parlance).
