Oh. So does that mean there is a difference between being pro-abortion and pro-choice? I thought both were technically the same thing, with pro-choice being the term abortionists and feminists use to describe their beliefs. -[[User:Mr. Nationalist|Mr. Nationalist]] ([[User talk:Mr. Nationalist|talk]]) 13:58, 5 August 2020 (EDT)

:Okay, I see your point. I felt "pro-choice" was a better choice of words for that specific context, largely because the term might sometimes be associated with a lower degree of supporting abortion than "pro-abortion". For instance, some left-leaning moderates may support abortion only in the first trimester but oppose any afterwards. In that type of a situation, using "pro-choice" might sound more accurate than "pro-abortion" because most people that are "pro-abortion" are much more supportive of it than opposed. And since Gorsuch arguably hasn't held a mostly pro-abortion tenure so far, I thought that it would've been better to stick with "pro-choice". Maybe you can put quotation marks around the term in the page, since it is a misnomer anyways. Does that sound like a good idea to you? —[[User:Liberaltears|Liberaltears]]<sup>'''''[[User:Liberaltears/mail|May Dataclarifier be well!]] | [[Special:Contributions/Liberaltears|Don't be an anti-Catholic zealot!]]'''''</sup> Wednesday, 14:07, 5 August 2020 (EDT)

Thank you for all your edits so far!

Hi Mr. Nationalist, I saw some of your edits, and I appreciate your contributions to the Conservapedia mainspace! I want to note that while it's good to use more politically incorrect terms such as "pro-abortion" rather than "pro-choice" (as you have done), "pro-choice" may be better suited in certain contexts. Sorry to revert your edit here; as for Neil Gorsuch, I would think that "pro-choice" would sound better for now as compared to "pro-abortion", as I believe he did make some more pro-life rulings while on the Court; please correct me if you're right and I'm wrong. —LiberaltearsMay Dataclarifier be well! | Don't be an anti-Catholic zealot!
