Educate yourself friend. Human rights violations, such as torture, disappearances, abuses against migrants, extrajudicial killings, gender-based violence, and attacks on independent journalists and human rights defenders, have continued under President AMLO, since 2018

That's their point - given all that, it's a surprise that in this one case Mexico is doing better than the US is.

Presuming the aborted baby isn't a human... which is just wishful thinking by anyone who prefers convenience over morality.

Aside from the obvious fallacy, anti abortionists often don't care about it once it is born. It seems to be more about controlling what others do than actually caring about the health.

What obvious fallacy? A human life is a human life and not being born yet doesn't make them not a human life. So, frankly, the second part of your argument falls into the pretty iffy category of "their life will suck therefore let's kill them."

But to address it further, anti abortionists absolutely do care. Its a total fallacy to say they don't. Its a convenient argument to vilify the other side but that doesn't make it the case.

Mexico: We will build a wall. And the US will pay for it.
