How We Know ‘Pro-Life’ People Don’t Actually Care About Reducing Abortions

There are plenty of good reasons to want to reduce the rate of abortions – like wanting to reduce hardship, costs, and stigma for people who might already be struggling.

But wanting to shame people who have abortions and force people to have unwanted births? Those are terrible goals.

So which goals do you think the so-called “pro-life” movement aims for? This comic drops in on a “pro-life strategy meeting” to reveal the hypocrisy of anti-choice rhetoric seeking to reduce abortion rates just for the sake of punishing people – when there are plenty of alternative solutions for support instead.
