In a ‘TrueUnpopularOpinion’ post titled ‘I’m pro choice but y’all do a horrible job of understanding the pro life position’. The comments are full of brain worms, but the winner of the Galaxy brain award has to be this specimen, who claims that Pro-Choicers have been fire-bombing Pregnancy Care clinics in response to the Supreme Court decision.
Except if you follow the link, there is one case someone spray painting graffiti on a clinic in Florida: “If abortions aren’t safe than neither are you,”. This act isn’t defensible IMO, but if you go down through the rest of the list, EVERY ONE is an example of (mostly actual) violence or blockades against health care providers who offer abortion or adjacent services. 10 occurrences from the list are acts against Planned Parenthood clinics.
The birth-forcing crowd has no compunctions about lying because they literally think their god is with them.
On the left we couldn’t get much use out of lies if we tried. You can’t really use lies to build people’s understanding of social sciences, and any acute use we might have for lying is usually outweighed by the damage it would do to the mass political consciousness we need to foster
The Evangelical right, though? Spend time with them and you’ll hear a lot of sentiments like, “Lying is a sin just like killing, but nothing is a sin in service of God” and particularly regarding medical disinfo about abortions, “if it stops even one abortion it’s worth it”
