and the other half believes babies' rights shouldn't exist, only criminals should own guns and only Russians can steal elections.

We believe that babies' lives should have rights after birth, too, and if you look at infant mortality rates in states that whose politicians are against abortion, you see that obviously a fetus's right to live ends at birth.
Now you're just unproductively shouting at each other the exact same slogans that have been shouted for decades. It is not new or interesting to anyone.
None of those statements are even remotely true so. Gun control advocates specifically want to get guns out of criminals (I see domestic violence as a crime, some people, sadly, don't). "They" are currently prosecuting the former president and his croneys for trying to steel the election in Washington and Georgia (the latter already resulted in multiple guilzy pleads), and they advocate for better social security and health care which specifically benefits babies and mothers, especially in poorer families. Birth control, incl. abortions, are a central corner stone in that. And nobody is argueing for killing babies, there are term limits everywhere abortion is legal (as it should be, legal and, pun intended, well regulated).

There is one side so that argues for arming the, mostly right wing, mob, using government to punish political opponents, build what basically amounts to concentration camps for yet to be specified people, deport millions...
