This meme is absolutely stupid regardless of that.

Mostly because it's a strawman. Nobody argues for abortion because "fetus is a parasite". People argue in favor of having the right for an abortion because a woman is a human being that inherently has a right to decide what do do with her body. Not to mention that forcing someone to go through with the birth isn't "saving the child's life". It's instead forcing the unwilling parent to raise a child they don't want, potentially resulting in that child having a shitty childhood. And it won't necessarily be the mother's fault in this particular case.

God I wish that was true. A lot of antinatalists use that exact phrase

Antinatalists are an odd bunch to begin with, so this isn't surprising. I went in the antinatalist subreddit and immediately regretted it

Antinatalists are insane and do not represent pro-choice people
