I'm pro-choice and don't being anti-choice all that terrible tbh

Sometimes I wonder how these people deal with interacting with the public

I can interact with people who disagree with me, even in ways that I find morally abhorrent. But I also do find laws that would subject women to interrogations to determine whether they should be charged with a crime for miscarrying morally abhorrent, and that does shape my choices about what entertainment I enjoy and things of that nature.

If you look at the link above, he specifically says he doesn't believe in making his personal beliefs laws.

I was referring to the post saying that being anti choice isn't that terrible and the idea of "how do you deal with people in the real world"

I actually agree that the person in this secret was being kind of a douche. The way they barged in with their information about the cartoonist, it's like they were getting enjoyment out of telling the other commenter they were wrong to enjoy something. However, the whole "How can these people deal with real life interactions?" schtick is pretty much bogus.

1. Do you think people go around asking everyone they interact with what their political opinions are? Like, "I'd really like to order a grande iced macchiato from you, but I can't do that until you tell me whether you're pro-choice." Or, "Wait, are you pro-choice; I'm only going to thank you for holding the door for me if you're pro-choice." Nobody does that.

2. Most people, in their off-line life, are perfectly capable of being civil and polite to people whose political views they strongly disagree with. Just because I'm not going to pursue a friendship with an anti-choice dude doesn't mean I'll refuse to speak to him or insult him on sight. So in instances where I do find out that someone I have routine contact with has political views I find repugnant, I just make a mental note that I don't want to form a relationship with them beyond what's necessary, and go on with life. It's pretty easy.
