re: Why doesn’t the Left view abortion though the prism of oppressor/oppressed?

They do! But to abortion proponents, women are being oppressed by being denied the agency to terminate their pregnancies. I’m not arguing that this is the logical way to view it, just sharing their viewpoints.
I don’t see how anyone can ever make this claim. The woman has the decision to have sex or not have sex. The woman has the decision to use birth control or not use birth control. The woman has the decision to keep the baby or abort it. The baby has no decision rights or any rights at all.
Unless the woman was raped, she has all the power in the process and can’t be viewed as oppressed.

How do you feel then in cases of rape where the woman has lost that agency?
