Anti-Abortion Groups Are Extremely Pissed About the Election
"We have a popular position. The biggest problem we have is a lack of leadership at the top,” said one leader, completely missing the lesson.

Anti-abortion groups have taken a breath and now solemnly understand that their position is deeply unpopular, with a full two-thirds of Americans supporting legal abortion in all or most cases, and they are pivoting to advocating for things that actually help people, like universal healthcare, a higher minimum wage, and affordable childcare. Lol just kidding!

“We have a popular position. The biggest problem we have is a lack of leadership at the top,” Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America president Marjorie Dannenfelser said on a press call Wednesday.

A different anti-abortion group looked at the results in Wisconsin—where voters re-elected Gov. Tony Evers (D) and prevented the state house from getting a veto-proof supermajority—and did not deduce that their position is a lost cause, but rather that they simply need to target young voters next time.


“We had a historic amount of young people turning out to vote, and abortion was a driving factor for those young people,” Gracie Skogman, spokesperson for Wisconsin Right to Life, told Politico. “Unfortunately, for the pro-life movement, they don’t share our position on life.”

Notably, not everyone in the space is quite so delusional. Now that anti-abortion ballot measures have been defeated by voters in Kentucky this week and Kansas in August, one leader did recognize that these measures are a risk for their side. Politico wrote: “Anti-abortion groups did not seem eager to put the issue to more statewide popular votes, with Students for Life President Kristan Hawkins calling it a ‘risky tool, often used to pump up voter anxiety to get out the vote.’”

1. Let me get out my Planck-scale violin for the anti-women group.

[ProfessorGAC]

8. Ok, We Have A Problem

Your Planck scale violin would need to Planck scale bow, which would be too big for the violin.
Then it would only move Planck scale air, which would be smaller than the atoms in it. All of which means we'd never hear it.
Sorry, I couldn't resist going full physics geek!

[RussellCattle]

13. Music written in "Planck time"? (Sorry, too. My inner geek won't be silenced either.)

[sakabatou]

16. Molecular-scale then?

[ProfessorGAC]

18. I'll Consider It!

How about nanoscale? At least the atoms are smaller.
Geez, I can't stop myself!

[barbtries]

12. i bought a tiny violin

from Amazon and was recently given the opportunity to pull it out for my son who was being a sore loser. (I'm the worst loser in the universe though)

15. ...

2. I'm sure their heads are exploding in Michigan.

By 57-43 we told them to FUCK OFF.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

3. They can cry about it.

[Wounded Bear]

4. The biggest lie the RWers believe is that they are the "majority"...

It's been true since the days of the "Moral Majority" that was neither and it is still true.

Just like trump won't believe that he lost because he thinks everybody loves him. They don't.

[gratuitous]

5. No, you don't have a popular position, Marjorie

You've made women into second class citizens, shackled by your narrow-minded belief system, and you're just now starting to find out that your position is poison to a free people. The Dobbs decision will become a millstone around your neck, and you will weep bitter tears every year on its anniversary as you see free women making their own choices about their health care, protected by law from the likes of you.

[LuvLoogie]

6. We have to record and save the statements and positions of

of these folks so that we can recall them when they renew their deceitful campaigns. Juxtapose them against the confirmation testimony of the SCOTUS nominees.

They have a pretty good history of lies and deceit, now. And we have that Alito document citing folks that executed women for "witchcraft."

Keep hanging that shit around their necks.

[yourout]

7. Idiots still haven't figured out overturning Roe cost them...

This election cycle.
Without overturning Roe this would have been a blood bath.

[drmeow]

9. You know what

I'm totally OK with them believing this. Let them push people to be louder and more vocal about being anti-abortion. Let them force Republicans to publicly state their plans to ban abortion as hard as possible. That will simply help us win more elections!

[barbtries]

10. do they really not know

that their position is not popular? or is she trying to blow smoke up people's asses.

no, ma'am, forced birthing is not a popular position.

[OAITW r.2.0]

11. This should be on every State ballot in 2024 where there is no state protection already in place.

We should do it in every state,

[scarletlib]

14. Hint to old white men/religious fanatics. No your position is not popular to the majority.

[ananda]

17. They actually think it's popular?

Sheesh
