The abortion lobby’s message to women: “Without us, you’re nothing.”

Icon of a speech bubbleOpinion·By Adam Peters

The abortion lobby’s message to women: “Without us, you’re nothing.”

If someone says that “nobody likes abortion,” assume the following: they’re either lying or misinformed. Because the fact is, some people do like it–for obvious reasons.

Child rapists like using abortion to hide abuse. That’s not hard when staff at Planned Parenthood (America’s largest abortion chain) think “being thirteen and pregnant alone is not a red flag.”

Similarly, human traffickers like how abortion keeps their victims working. Racists and those wishing to abort their daughters value it too.

Pickup artists” (PUAs) appreciate abortion; Christian McQueen explained why in “The Ten Slut Commandments,” a guide on how to “exploit” and “use” women with “low self-esteem” and “daddy issues.”

And while PUAs like abortion, abortion advocates seem to like PUAs; or at least their tactics, anyway. Specifically, they’ve embraced a technique known as “negative game.” The approach involves trying to build insecurity and using it to your advantage, a strategy pro-aborts know all about.

You see it a lot online: people suggest that banning abortion will reduce women to “cattle,” or “incubators.” The implication of course is that without the abortion industry, women are no different than animals or machines.

Dear Reader,

Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.

That number should break our hearts and move us to action.

Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.

Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.

Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Will you become one of the 500 today? Click here now to become a Live Action Life Defender and have your first gift doubled.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.

Negative Game

You can also see it in headlines like this:

Negative Game 2

The writer argues that because abortion is outlawed in Northern Ireland, women have no autonomy there… which would probably come as a surprise to the woman who governs Northern Ireland (and who, incidentally, favors keeping abortion illegal).

The claim that women need abortion to separate them from livestock isn’t exactly easy to take seriously. However, there’s another claim that has gotten traction: that Americans need Planned Parenthood to deliver health care. They don’t.

Planned Parenthood receives half a billion dollars from Washington every year despite a litany of scandals. Tell Congress that money should go to federally qualified health centers (FQHC) and community health centers (CHCs) instead. FQHCs and CHCs are more accessible than Planned Parenthood is, and they offer services that Planned Parenthood won’t.

The group New Wave Feminists recently put out a video explaining why women don’t need abortion. It’s time to let lawmakers know that taxpayers don’t need Planned Parenthood either.
