The blatantly wrong thing in this image is where it says "entirely separate". It's attached and dependent.

Killing a 22 week old premature infant = infanticide
Aborting a fetus at 22 weeks = CHOICE

Over 98% of abortions occur before the fetus has any remote chance of surviving outside the womb. Even after that, the fetus has no right to a host body. It is not infanticide to simply evict it from the womb, and if it jeopardizes the health of the mother, then by all means, yeetus that fetus.

This is irrelevant to my comment you quoted, but nice duck and weave.

Bizarre language.

But it is infanticide to kill it once it has been born, regardless of how premature. My original comment you weaved points out the basically nonsensical distinction between a fetus and an infant. A fetus born 4 months premature is an infant and killing it would be infanticide, but if you kill it 5 months into gestation it's simply called a "choice" by leftist cucklets like yourself.

if it jeopardizes the health of the mother, then by all means, yeetus that fetus.

Agreed.
 
I don't mind the Cap'n either but if someone gives me one of those bottles with the polar bear on it and I'll throw it at them.

It's not irrelevant when the topic is abortion in general, and not whether it should be allowed after a certain point. That small percentage of abortions that happen when the fetus has a chance of surviving if born prematurely cannot be used to justify opposing abortion for the other 98% of cases.

But it is infanticide to kill it once it has been born, regardless of how premature. My original comment you weaved points out the basically nonsensical distinction between a fetus and an infant.

An infant born that premature only a has small chance of survival through aggressive intervention, which was totally outside the realm of possibility until recently, which means that line between viable and non-viable has shifted and is not set in stone. Hypothetically speaking, a doctor is not obligated to provide their body as a host to ensure the survival of a premature infant, so neither does the mother have an obligation to carry a baby to term. What a mother cannot do is take steps to ensure that the baby doesn't survive outside the womb; that would be infanticide.
