Ethics Villain and Fick Who I Fear Has Lots of Company: Christina Applegate
April 14, 2026 / Jack Marshall


Christina Applegate is touring to promote her memoir, “You With the Sad 
Eyes,” hot off the presses. The “Married With Children” star writes 
about her illness, multiple sclerosis, and also the abortion she had 
when she was 19.

“In late April 1991, I fell pregnant,” she writes. “I want to turn away 
from what happened, but it’s all recorded in my diary. There are moments 
in my life that are too painful to force into narrative or meaning, so 
I’ll let my voice from back then speak.” And she does:

“I love this being… I always felt that if I ever got pregnant when I 
knew it was the wrong time, I wouldn’t have any problem having an 
abortion. ‘Oh, whatever. It isn’t even a baby yet.’ That’s bullshit. 
This creature’s incredible — makes me feel whole, safe…I’m fucking 
pregnant, and I’m killing my child on Thursday. I’m thinking, ‘Where the 
fuck can I go to recuperate from murder?’…His family will hate me when 
they find out that I killed their family member because they don’t 
believe in it. But I can’t have this baby because I have work to do to 
entertain this fucking world. Besides, I can’t… now.”

Then she says hello and good-bye to the unborn child she is going to, in 
her own words, murder:

“Hello, little thing. I feel you every moment of my day. Such a tiny 
existence. Such an immense effect you have. You are a miracle. A tiny 
handed miracle. I love you, but you know your fate. It’s not your time. 
I know you didn’t make that decision, but it can’t be your time. You 
will live on, though. You will live through another. I hope you will 
forgive me… But mommy can’t be with you right now. But know she loves 
you — more than any other miracle.”


I can’t wrap my mind and ethics around this in any manner that doesn’t 
end up with Applegate being irredeemable. A fick, in Ethics Alarms-eese, 
is someone who know what he or she is doing or has done is wrong but 
shows no recognition that there is anything to regret or be ashamed of. 
I believe that the arguments in favor of abortion are rationalizations 
and deliberate boot-strapping constructs without integrity. But I don’t 
know how to define the act of someone who describes an abortion as 
murder and then goes ahead and has the abortion anyway as anything 
but…murder. There is intent, there is affirmative action to carry out 
that intent. Murder. What else could it be?

Applegate’s nauseating Hello-Goodbye (“I don’t know why you say hello, I 
say good-bye..” Good point, John!) is infuriating. “It’s not your time.” 
It’s not the child’s time because its mother decided to kill it: how 
dare the actress use that cowardly phrasing. How much can you love a 
human being you kill for your own convenience?

That reminds me of another song…


“You will live on…through another”? Nice one. Meaningless, compete 
bullshit, but nice. As long as it makes you feel better, Christina. I 
wonder if the Boston Strangler used that one?

Applegate is a woman who admits that she killed an unborn child she 
believed was a human being with a right to live, and regarded the act at 
the time as murder.

I don’t want to see, hear about or read about this hopelessly unethical 
person ever again, and I hope I never encounter anyone like her.

But I bet I already have….
