I don't particularly see many people who are pro-choice, using the argument that "fetuses are parasites, and women should be able to remove parasites from them."
Even the sites that you brought up aren't arguing that "fetuses are taking resources" as the reason why it should be acceptable. The point that this article for example: http://www.prochoiceactionnetwork-canada.org/articles/fetus-focus-fallacy.shtml is trying to make is by saying that having a child brings an emotional and physical toll on the mother. The other two articles don't bring in context, because they are just quoting someone else.
Trying to make that comparison with UBI by "siphoning resources" is ludicrous because it's not about the "resources". It's more about strain.
I'd rather pay taxes to go towards the less fortunate. Even if only 1 out of a 100 genuinely needed it. You can't be pro-life while looking the other way when people die of starvation. Knowing that it helps someone relieves me of strain.

"I don't particularly see many people who are pro-choice, using the argument that "fetuses are parasites, and women should be able to remove parasites from them.""
abortion fundamentally is a process that treats unborn babies as if they are parasites that must be eradicated when the mothers call for it... do you agree?

For many people that have to or choose to undergo abortions, it is a horrific, traumatic experience. The fact you trivialize that feeling to paint pro-choice people as cold and heartless really shows your hypocrisy and lack of empathy.
