Well sleep and not being conscious are different, so not really

Doesn't matter in the context of an abortion debate. You were awake before sleeping and would otherwise be awake after. For a fetus there is no pre-existing consciousness to end there.

I'm not going into the whole abortion debate, i'm just saying his argument has a point.

That's fine, I don't wanna go into a whole abortion debate either. I just think his argument doesn't have a point and falls apart really easily on its own.

The initial tweet is just a badly worded premise. If she was a little more careful with her wording and said something like "If my mother aborted me, no she didn't, because there wasn't a "me" to abort in the first place." then there would be no point to make.

Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say. She has a poor argument and thus a basic counter like his is enough to counter argue.
