I suspect the PRO CHOICE crowd is more inspired by right wing Ayn Rand and " The Virtue of Selfishness " than by left wing Betty Friedan and " The Feminine Mystique " .

As a lifelong democratic socialist I cannot say what " Independent " Bernie Sanders is all about. He is absolutely bound to the Democratic Party - for which any form of SOCIALISM will always be anathema. For real socialists most of these chronic social diseases like poverty, WAR ,homelessness, environmental decay , racism , and crime are connected to the rotten capitalist system. Working class Americans would be better off if they had a militant LABOR PARTY representing them in Congress. All " liberal " talk about ending or fighting HATE in class divided society is charlatan drivel. Leave it to the presently war mongering mainstream news media to judge who is naughty and who is nice - with NBC lackey Chuck Todd setting himself up as the " Decency Czar " ? For years now the Democratic Party has promoted the HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism . And Bernie Sanders has gone along with it , never challenging any BIG LIE of the DNC . And if you imagine yourself to be a SCIENTIFIC socialist , how can you stomach all this vicious and daffy " identity politics " and WOKE nonsense like " Critical Race Theory ," or the non-recognition of DNA based sex type ? And as a democratic socialist I don't think most working class women are obsessed with Roe vs. Wade fanaticism . How kind of the WOKE Democrats : if you are too poor to have a child , you can kindly terminate it in the womb and never get depressed about it . Of course , the Founding Fathers anticipated this gloomy " right " ! Any felt NEED for abortion -most of the time - can be traced to the UNFAIRNESS OF LIFE - the essence of capitalism. I suspect the PRO CHOICE crowd is more inspired by right wing Ayn Rand and " The Virtue of Selfishness " than by left wing Betty Friedan and " The Feminine Mystique " .
