This is consistently one of your main go-to tactics--when convenient, squeeze everyone under the same umbrella, e.g. Trump says something negative about Mexican gang members or Mexico's worst, and you say he insults all Mexicans; or those who oppose illegal immigration or say disparaging things about a country like Haiti, and you say the are attacking or discriminating against people of color.

Here you say that if you oppose abortion, you are requiring other people to conform to your beliefs, regardless of all the other beliefs you have that you don't "require" others to conform to.

In essence, Democracy requires the minority to conform to the beliefs of the majority. You seem to be a big believer in democracy. Which implies to me that you're OK with people requiring others to conform to your beliefs
