Not at all. AOC says she was a PP baby. She has stated that as a result of the pre-natal care afforded by PP, many babies are born healthy and that PP actually saves babies' lives. Thus PP is pro-life. It's an alternative definition of pro-life, where the traditional type wants to stop all abortions, but doesn't care whether pregnant mothers receive any pre-natal care, receive needed vitamin supplements nor whether the children who are born eat every day, get any vaccinations or have anyone to look after them when mom goes to work. I guess it's a matter of perspective.

If there is one thing the border crisis exemplifies it is the hypocrisy of the pro-life people. They care for the unborn because the unborn are easy to care for, just pretend you care and the soul is pacified.
Let me repeat: Abortion is the hypocrite's crutch, a child dies every few seconds in the world and even in America of preventable healthcare issues and never ever do you hear abortion foes talk of helping the living born conscious human being. It is only this moral outrage over abortion that gets notice for it requires nothing of the moralist except judgment and condemnation of the other. Consider too the misogyny and racism so evident in America during the last President and 2016 election and you must wonder why this love of children does not extend into love of all people? How hard it is to fund help for the needy in America, CHIP was an example, or universal healthcare, and you soon realize abortion like guns is only a wedge issue used to manage the mind of the easily persuaded. Religion, and especially evangelical religion in America has come to be about political power and money and no longer has anything to do with morality, you know simply doing good for your neighbor.

"Diarrhoea is a leading killer of children, accounting for 9 per cent of all deaths among children under age 5 worldwide in 2015. This translates to over 1,400 young children dying each day, or about 526,000 children a year, despite the availability of simple effective treatment."

As an "alternate definition of pro-life," it doesn't fly. Yes PP offers some prenatal services, and that's a good thing, but the term "pro-life" has a meaning that isn't going to switch over anytime soon.
The idea that "traditional" pro-lifers don't care about mothers receiving prenatal support is 100% wrong. They do try to talk young women out of having abortions, but they do it by offering to hook them up with prenatal services, adoption services, etc. I think this errant way of thinking was started by far-right-wing groups who picketed abortion clinics back in the day. Those were odd evangelical types, much like the the nuts from Westboro Baptist Church who picket soldiers' funerals. The more-common, run-of-the-mill pro-life group raises funds and does a good job of getting young women in for prenatal care.
Most of the groups are funded through church organizations, such as Catholic Charities.
I'm sure the whack-jobs--the Calvinist types like Westboro--are more judgemental than helpful, but the vast majority of pro-lifers put their money out to help the young women. Don't fall for the leftist spin.

LMAO telling people about the side effects from the Experimental vaccines? Does your brain stem remember your Lame Stream media reporting on the side effects of the vaccines. Did your one brain cell forget the Euros stopping the Astrazenica vaccine due to the blood cots?
So now that you have been called out over the prolifers talking about the side effects of those experimental vaccines. Lets see if your dense grey matter can back its play.
Oh and this time try not to snivel, whine, and cry about being a victim.

When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.
When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.
And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.
War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.
