    There’s really not much you can do. There’s just too many cameras in the public spaces. If any government official wants to see who’s visited an abortion clinic, they can just have the local traffic camera company tell them.

    We need to ban the government getting around the 4th amendment by partnering with private companies.

      Depends on how advanced thw surveillance systems are. Yeah, I would consider driving to be impossible to do anonymously - but when it comes to walking or using public transport, depends. I am not sure just how well they can track a person with a covered face on those.

    I am not a US-citizen nor am I a woman (if I was, I would probably be a little too old to need that kind of help) but, very naively I’ll admit it, this is really not the kind of guide I would have imagined would become so urgently needed.

    It seems a very well made guide, with a lot of very useful suggestions.

    Which makes me feel even more sad to realize this is indeed useful and very much needed.

    USA has become so third world country. They should make decisions based on scientific information not based on some conservative beliefs.

      third world means neither usa, nor east (Russia-China) sympathizer. This phrase is also commonly used to refer to countries with developing, weaker economies. Now USA is neither. Americans can deny, ease, erase, paint the history built on racism and conservativism, it will always rise up to the top. This is exactly what happened again. Shame on everyone who voted valid. No matter for who. Invalid voters and non-voters did right. Democracy has always enabled the most vile to rank up to the top. We heard about Peistratos and Hitler, who were enabled to commit heinous crimes against humanity, while being democratically elected. This is why anarchism, despite its vulrenabilities, is still the best system, that actually works very well in smaller communities.

    Pm me I know of options depending on your location, age, and how far along you are. Don’t feel too bad. Sure its not a good thing but its smarter if it’s a bad time in your life to care for another person. Financially or Mentally and physically. I know of multiple online and discreet services. Its better to raise someone with great care and sound mind for both sides than to be financially incapable and bringing someone in with no means of care for raising a good human than to wing it.

      since you decided

      So glad to hear that you are supportive of people’s autonomy to make decisions, that’s an important value to have. Since you support them making a decision to take action that could result in beginning a pregnancy, you’ll also support that autonomy when they make another decision later to end a pregnancy. Isn’t it great when we have ethical consistency in our views? Congratulations!

          Yeah I realize they are trolling, and my reply isn’t for them. Displaying solidarity for my uterus-having comrades.
