Anti-abortion activists are willing to take extreme measures to ensure the collapse of Planned Parenthood causing collateral damage may even be part of the goal.
We’re happy to welcome big tech to dawning awareness of our everyday reality: abortion restrictions are harmful, and there’s no fairness in allowing their shaming and deception to continue on online platforms in violation of their content policies.
Activists wore Reproaction’s newly minted T-shirt proclaiming our stance: “pro-abortion, pro-family, pro-justice.”
Direct action is a meaningful way to build community, spread information, and challenge abortion opponents. If you want to stand up for abortion access and shine a light on ‘pro-life’ hypocrisy, you should protest outside of your local fake clinic.
The more society lets ‘pro-life’ extremists get away with advocating hate in the name of Jesus, the more the mainstream conservative movement moves increasingly toward outright fundamentalism.
The M.O. of anti-abortion fake clinics is to mislead and shame people considering abortion, often employing grotesque scare tactics and outright lies about the supposed risks of the procedure itself and purported after-effects of abortion on the body.
Human Coalition’s work promises its funders that it will reach women “most likely” to obtain abortions, and uses the model of their seven fake clinics operating nationally, of which two are mobile units, which are coach busses that fake clinic chains convert into roving ultrasound rooms. They’ll park outside of real clinics or on college campuses in their tricked-out RVs, all to trick people out of seeking the care they need.
Activists showed up with a clear message that regardless of what the courts say, it’s time to hold fake clinics accountable for the harm they do in our community.
Make no mistake: The future of legal access to abortion in this country has not been this threatened since the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision affirmed the constitutional right to abortion.
However, it's hard to believe that an organization with Bethany’s history and financial interest in expanding fostering and adoption is solely concerned with the welfare of children separated from their families by the Trump administration.
Their talking points are framed in language that makes them seem progressive and even pro-woman, when in reality, everything perfectly aligns with their agenda to close ranks around restricting abortion access and reinforcing stigma.
