“I will argue until my dying breath that the U.S. Constitution required the Supreme Court to overturn Roe vs. Wade after 50 years & criminalize abortion in half the country, but you can’t prove I’m pro-life!” is the “I’M NOT TOUCHING YOU!” of political discourse

SINCERE DENIAL:

“I’m actually pro-choice; I think abortion should be legal but restricted because [reasons].”

GASLIGHTING BULLSHIT:

“Interesting, who said I was pro life? 😉”

My troll’s refusal to acknowledge his personal opinions about abortion are indeed reminiscent of the Republican SCOTUS appointees refusing to acknowledge their own ideological predilections which they correctedly assumed would make them appear unfit to rule on the Supreme Court

Much like MAGA trolls who pretend they’re not Trump voters, these nimrods see a political advantage to pretending that their longstanding personal opinions have nothing to do with their One Correct Interpretation of the Constitution allowing each state to criminalize abortion
