Fact Checking The Australian Anti Choice Movement
from The Arc Woman Podcast · host Arc Woman
🎙️ The anti-choice movement in Australia is getting louder, more organised, and more willing to spread outright misinformation. So in this episode, I brought in two experts to fact-check the claims being made publicly, right now, in this country, one by one.⚖️ I'm joined by Kayla, a practising midwife with deep knowledge of health policy on the ground, and Georgia, a criminologist working in policy who knows exactly how laws are made, misrepresented, and used against women. Together, we go through the most repeated anti-abortion claims in Australia, fetal rights under international law, late-term abortion statistics, born alive rhetoric, the abortion pill safety record, miscarriage criminalisation, domestic violence and reproductive coercion, and the sex selection amendment currently being pushed in New South Wales.🌍 I also cover what's happening in the US right now, the deliberate destruction of $40 million worth of contraception destined for Sub-Saharan Africa, the federal ruling on mifepristone, and the coordinated rhetorical shift that is rebranding hormonal birth control as an abortifacient and why none of this stays in America.📄 Download the full fact-check PDF with all cited sources on the link tree, and if you're in Australia, send it to your local MP.arcwoman.com.auAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
