The amount of suffering that people justify in the name of being “pro-life” is really messed up.
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who are OK with separating children from their
their only home?
Why are so many “pro-lifers” against paying all people a living wage?
Why is it almost always pro-lifers who seem to be OK with women being paid less than men for the same work?
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who refuse to wear masks in a pandemic for the sake of the most vulnerable in our communities?
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who end up going down the QAnon rabbit hole of dangerous disinformation and conspiracy theories?
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who are OK with banning people who are Muslim from coming into our country and enjoying their religious liberties like families and denying all persons access to our country who are seeking asylum?
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who are against every person having access to affordable and good quality healthcare?
Why is it almost always “pro-lifers” who are against DACA and want to send persons away who came to our country as children and who experience our country as everyone else?
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who want people not to have access to free contraception with their health insurance?
Why is it almost always the “pro-lifers” who argue that persons should have their food stamps cut?

Why is it that the “pro-lifers,” who are predominantly also white Christians, are measurably the most racist group within society?
Why is it that so many “pro-lifers” are also so misogynistic in their language and behavior?
Why is it that most “pro-lifers” are so pro-death penalty?
Why was it the “pro-lifers” who were the first to accept Trump’s birtherism lies about an African-American president?
Why is it that most “pro-lifers” want to deny or ignore climate change and allow us to continue creating an unlivable climate for future generations?
Maybe it is because most “pro-lifers” are not really “pro-life” but rather simply pro-birth, and there is a deep difference between the two.
