We know that from documentation that Soviet citizens wouldn't have access to. From their perspective, the Nazis were coming to kill them all, so the Violinist doesn't apply because no one was confirmed safe. Anyone could die, so everyone had to fight.
Whatever. Doesn't matter.
Maybe you didn't read the second half of my comment. Here it is again:
I will admit that the Violinist is overly individualistic, to the point that maybe I should adopt a different framework. I was just describing how I came to my pro-choice beliefs, but in hindsight that was back when I was a liberal Christian teenager trying to comprehend the issue within that specific moral framework. These days I can see the weaknesses you’re talking about and, though I disagree with the example you used, I think you make a good point that I should adopt a less atomized vision of abortion.
Do you have a recommendation?
Because using your framework, it seems pretty easy to justify banning abortion and force women to give birth for the greater good.
