Why don't "pro-life" protestors ever seem to know where to protest?
Probably about once a month I drive past these protestors at a fertility clinic. They are always protesting abortion and saying how so many babies die there.
This particular clinic does not perform abortions at all. Ever. It never has.
Today one of their signs also said "babies are orphanized here." What does that even mean? Do they think parents are killed there? Or is it because people leave their embryos stored there?
Do they also think babies are "orphanized" at hospitals when a parent leaves their room to go to the cafeteria?
I see this come up all the time, but I feel like it misses the mark in describing the average dumbass.
The people that propagate the mindset want to hurt women. The people that follow them just want to be part of an exclusive club. It's the same logic that religion uses. People like to feel included, and they like to know that there are others who aren't. They won't ever admit to the latter, but there's a reason they do this shit instead of being reasonable and joining a fucking club or going to hang out with friends.
The women protesting in that group don't wake up in the morning wondering how they can hurt other women. They wake up happy that they're part of the cool club and ready to fuck over anyone not in it with them.
It's a stupid distinction, but I feel like it has to be made... for whatever reason. They're still terrible people.
Damn homie. Don't attack people with the same level of ignorance you are trying to defend against. While most people devoted enough to religion to have it influence how they vote may not be the brightest tool in the shed but that doesn't make them evil hearted people. Theyre brought up under a singular understanding that abortion is killing babies. Every single person I know who doesn't support freedom of choice is doing it because they believe they are preventing babies from being killed.
You're right, but as the others have mentioned, it's a spectrum of stupid on one end and evil on the other... the folks who land on the stupid end are being manipulated by the ones on the evil end, so either directly or one step removed, the cruelty is still the point.
Maybe I shouldn't judge the pawns by the hand that placed them, but I'm so tired of seeing evil get a free pass because it was committed by the village idiot.
I think that was kinda the point I was trying to make lol. There is so fucking much evil around that we shouldn't shit on the stupid like they're the evil ones. I might also be more lecturing myself because I know I have little patience for stupid and try as I might to have more patience or unde4standing it's hard at the end of the day not to not feel the truth behind the saying "you cant fix stupid." But who the fuck knows anymore. 🍻
