Breaking bad
Dexter
Cobra Kia
Malcolm in the Middle

There are so many shows and movies where a main character, or if male, their wife/girlfriend gets pregnant unexpectantly.

And never is the word "abortion" ever said or brought it. It's always "welp I'm pregnant guess we're having a child without any discussion"

In TV and movie land abortions don't exist I guess
>>
>>214173784
Because they are white
>>
>>214173784
Abortion is murder. Soon to be illegal.

Your body Trumps choice.
WHITE POWER.
>>
>>214173784
The story in breaking bad happened in a time where people knew abortion was a satanic idea, also
>Dexter
Why would they? I remember Rita liking the idea of having another baby
>>
2000s TV is set in an alternate universe where God is real
>>

Bea Arthur beat that bitch to the punch (in the stomach)

Because it's an actual controversial topic. And modern shows are made with a wide audience in mind, which is why they suck. They aren't allowed to be controversial. Execs would never greenlight it. Even the edgy shit they do show is safe edgy. Like with Dexter he went from a torturing psychopath to "awwwww he feels hes just in a shell" safe psychopath with a heart of gold. Even edgy has to be "safe edgy".
>>
>>214173784
watch Fast Times at Ridgemont High summer child
Weren't they happy about having a kid in Breaking Bad?
Would there be anything funny about an abortion discussion in Malcolm in the Middle?
>>
>>214173784
They don't wanna lose the religion public by being realistic about it
>>
TV is christcuck brainwashing
remember when walt literally wrote down "judeo christian principles" on a notepad to decide if he should kill someone just lmaooooo
>>
There is a flipside. There are liberal shows (namely The Boys and Bojack) where a woman does get pregnant and have an abortion explicitly so they can talk about how it's her choice and not a big deal.

Giving birth is the default (in tv and in real life), and creates future conflict within the story. Honestly, most writers aren't good enough to pull off an abortion story without it feeling like partisan hackery.
>>
Claire had an abortion in Six Feet Under.

>killing is le good
Agree. I’m trans btw

>>214174293
he was about to get stabbed to death like a retard if he didn't notice the plate shard was missing. that's what happens to christcucks who forgive gangsters
>>
>>214174341
Although if I was crazy eight I’d both honor my word and keep the shard just in case I couldn’t convince him
>>
>>214173784
do you have any idea of how many countries around the world not only criminalize abortion but treat it as one of the highest taboos (rightfully so)?
>>
>>214173784
Because most people’s first instinct isn’t to kill the thing, whether you want to call it a zygote or a baby or whatever.
>>
Because suburban white people don’t have abortions, even in that circumstance. Theyre just pro choice politically.
>>
>>214173914
TV is run by the jews and they've been shitting all over christianity for decades.
>>
>>214173784
I know this may sound insane to you, but most people in real life do not get abortions.
>>
>>214173784
why is suicide never an option in shitty threads posted by faggot OPs

There are so many dogshit threads posted by retarded piece of shit moron faggot OPs.

And never is the word "killing their fat retarded self" ever said or brought it. It's always "welp I'm retarded guess we're having this fucking thread again"

In /tv/ land righteous suicide don't exist I guess
>>
>>214174777
desu it's one of the most interesting threads in a while and really made me think. nice trips
>>
>>214174241
Why is explicitly having an abortion and treating it as no big deal partisan hackery while going through with a pregnancy and never even mentioning the possibility of terminating it not?
>>
>>214173784
>Breaking bad
>Dexter
>why don't the women bring up abortion
Walt and Dexter are meant to be the questionable characters that are murderers, if their wives are baby killers, kind of takes the focus away.
>>
>>214173784
It's constantly. obsessively mentioned. This is a false flag. You are a jew.
>>
For the same reason the characters don't stick together in horror movies, dumbass
>>
Because it's morally reprehensible
>>
>>214177196
so is bringing a new person into existence
>>
>>214175693
>Why is explicitly having an abortion and treating it as no big deal partisan hackery while going through with a pregnancy and never even mentioning the possibility of terminating it not?
Humans have always had kids. Abortion has always been a strange niche only the moloch followers do.
>>
>>214178124
As far as Internet proliferated subcultures go, I think antinatalists are even worse than furries. Whinging, effeminate moralist kys now
>>
>>214178337
>not being evil is.... le gay!!!
no u normalfag
>>
>>214173784

Because whatever drivel liberals use to bribe their conscience against accepting reality, everyone knows that the destruction of an unborn baby is a deplorable tragedy.
>>
>>214173784
>Cobra Kia
Johnny was so fucking happy he got his Latina pregnant. It let him go Ultra Instinct in the fight against Silver's Ginyu Force.

Did you even watch the show?
>>
>>214178124
If you believed that, you would already be dead, hypocrite faggot
>>
>>214179144
two separate issues, brainlet
>>
I guess they're not woke
>>
>>214173784
Because in the real world, killing children is considered abhorrent, and reminding people that that is what abortion is makes them less likely to support it. Since the characters on television are meant to be likable, they cannot get abortions since this will instantly make all normal people disgusted with them.
>>
>>214178351
Antinatalism is indistinguishable from what I would try to convince my enemies to believe to destroy them. Since you didn't come up with the idea by yourself, the only rational thing to conclude is that someone who hates you tricked you into thinking it.

All you really need to do to argue against Antinatalism is point out that it's obviously a psyop. If you fell for it, you're stupid.
>>
>>214179482
this but natalism
an obvious pyramid scheme if there ever was one
>>
>>214173895
>Would there be anything funny about an abortion discussion in Malcolm in the Middle?
Yea if would be funny if they all sat down to discuss it and everyone in the family kept looking at Reece every time someone mentions a new pro abortion point.
>>
>>214179461
Actually, it's been pushed as a "woman's right" so much that 99% of normies will defend it without a second thought, at least in public. Jews have taken all the shame out of the despicable act
>>
>>214173784
Why do shows only give you two options, keep the baby or abort it. Why not add adoption I to the mix. The last movie that I can remember where the family said, let's give the baby up for adoption was Juno.
>>
>>214175693
I said it's hard to write it without it feeling like partisan hackery, not that it can't be done. Something feels like partisan hackery when it feels like the writer cares more about proving a point then writing a good or entertaining story.

The Boys is the absolute worst at this. They literally decided not to kill someone that should have been 1000% dead because they were a bi woman, and they didn't want to kill a LGBT off. No other reason.

I haven't seem Cobra Kai, but none of the other shows mentioned feel like they're inserting a pregnancy to promote pro-life. It's just shit the cast has to deal with.
>>
>>214173784
Because the actress is having a baby and they wanna write it into the story.
>>
>>214179144
No belief is not enough to overcome survival instincts.
>>
>>214179482
>Since you didn't come up with the idea by yourself
I did though, I didn't even know antinatalism was a word until a couple of years ago, most males don't grow up wanting to have to deal with babies.

>Antinatalism is point out that it's obviously a psyop.
No, the psyop is making girls play with baby dolls of their own as soon as they can walk so they aren't antinatalist.
>>
>>214179130
Mamba Ikea
>>
>>214174635
Then why would they keep pushing certain values of it if they didn't consider them useful?
I think they want to program in the idea of having kids being done by a designated social caste
>>
>>214173817
>Abortion is murder. Soon to be illegal.
This. Glorifying baby killing will lose viewers, not gain them.
>>
>>214174635
Ignore the underage shitposter.
>>
Because even if the characters are evil, they aren't evil enough to murder their own child.
>>
>>214173784
Most people think killing babies is wrong, even though they'll say "Oh no I'm pro-choice".
They know and are afraid to speak out.
>inb4 it isn't babykilling
Sure bud, you draw the line where (you) see fit, I'm sure you won't get it wrong.
>>
>>214179144
This. He's just a shitposting liar.
>>
>>214181408
So even the worst people imaginable aren't as evil as god who stopped getting off on killing his children by itself and literally had to become one of his children so he could do a murder/suicide?
>>
>>214181499
If you believed that would spend all your waking hours trying to make babies instead of reading other people's shitposts.
>>
>>214181504
We get it Ivan, you're raiding. No, this won't prevent you from being blown up by American artillery in the next 24h.

that's why they're politically inflammatory and intentionally alienate half the audience. interesting...

Deadwood literally had an abortion subplot in a pregnancy subplot, it ended in a misscarriage anyway because lol fuck having a baby around, and it fucking sucked.

If you are not doing an abortion it's not a political stance, you just decided to keep the baby even if you support abortion. If you decided to do an abortion or even discuss it it raises a political issue and someone might get angry at the show
