The claim that this is really about controlling women's bodies is horseshit. It's a side effect, not the main goal. It's just super easy to take unflattering side effects and point at it and scream loudly THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED ALL ALONG, YOU VILLAINS
I don't think you're a baby killer. They think you're killing babies and they are trying to stop you. The argument 'they just want to control women's bodies' isn't right, it's 'they are trying to stop what they think is baby killing'.

I don't think you think I'm a baby killer, but you're saying that pro-life people do. I'm just trying to understand why you think it's okay for them to call me a baby killer, but it's not okay for me to say "you're taking away women's bodily autonomy."

You said yourself that a side effect of restricting abortion is the restriction of bodily autonomy, so why is it an invalid argument to say that if that's what the effect of their actions is?

It's not, I'm fine saying that's an effect of those actions. It's just, intent is very different from effects. Say it's the effect, don't say it's the intent.
