I don't see why you'd debate that. You could debate what the rights of the mother vs. the rights of the unborn baby are until you're blue in the face and you'd be unlikely to convince the other side that they're wrong. What matters is that a large group of people think the abortion is an acceptable procedure and those that disagree aren't directly impacted by the decision. That alone should be enough to enshrine it as a right. We're a free country after all, which generally means people can do as they please so long as it doesn't negatively impact others.
I disagree, without taking a side in the debate. If someone truly and really believes a fetus is a human then they do have an interest in protecting them.
Its like being against slavery. You could say, what's that to anyone, if you're against slavery then dont own slaves but don't stop others. And yet it's reasonable to be against other people enslaving others.
Your comment suggests you think abortion is "obviously" ok and perhaps you'd agree that slavery is "obviously wrong and different". Perhaps because enslaved people are "obviously" humans with rights and fetuses are "obviously" not. I don't know of course but it seems like a reasonable guess.
But so long as the debate is about what people hold as obvious and naturally correct, all you get is more polarisation.
Again, there is no debate to be had. Those who are against abortion are saying the the fetus has rights. That is unfalsifiable. There is no point in arguing about it.
If you question whether or not a slave is a person, then I don't know what to tell you.
Have you heard of the butterfly effect? You can't predict what would happen if you go back in time and change something. Maybe Apple wouldn't exist, or maybe it would exist and would be even better. Or some other company would exist in its place and would be better / worse. Or maybe Apple wouldn't exist, but because it didn't exist, TSMC would never rise to prominence, which would make Taiwan less of a powder keg, which would avoid WW3 when China inevitably takes control of Taiwan. Or maybe...
> It is the same argument used to justify any opinion without proof
You offered an opinion without proof, which is that Apple wouldn't exist. This is why these "debates" are so unproductive. Both sides have unfalsifiable positions.
