    For me it was the abortion thing out here in the states where I moved to from the UK.

    I kind of knew some people were against it but I never thought they could actually take the service away. I have a really serious medical disorder and I made the decision to get sterilized (medical disorder means no hormonal birth control) because of it. Prior, I had thought I’d probably have kids one day but it did not appear to be safe for me anymore.

    It worked out well for me because I enjoy the childfree life quite a bit. Just kind of shattered that illusion of the land of the free for me a bit. I mean the medical industry out here already prevents freedom quite a bit tbh. I want to get a new job but then I’d have to go without healthcare for months because of probationary bullshit.
