These people want us dead. End of story. They don’t care what we say, they don’t care about our love for people or the planet. All they care about are their privileges and they hate anyone they see as a threat those privileges. No amount of logic, of facts, of sound arguments will change that.

I kid of course, the two aren’t the same
There’s a chance that Santa and his elves exist
Which is more than can be said for the batshit lie of “Life begins at conception” ever being true no matter how loudly and shrilly these imbeciles shriek about it
Now I’m not saying that I think everyone who is pro-life is a delusional moronic fuckwit who doesn’t deserve respect or tolerance. I’m saying it’s a fact that everyone who is pro-life is a delusional moronic fuckwit who doesn’t deserve respect or tolerance, not an opinion
