Not only is it not funny, but this article is published in Teen Vogue, meaning that it’s targeted at teenage girls. That is on purpose, of course, as teenagers, especially teenage girls, are quite malleable.
This is all part of the normalization process from: horrible thing that should never happen > horrible thing that is justified in rare circumstances > emotionally stressful but a woman’s right > funny, no big deal procedure that all woman have the right to.
Disgusting
What pisses me off the most is that some girl is gonna read that shit, and if she finds herself in a crisis pregnancy, will assume that abortion can be “funny”. She’s gonna walk into an abortion clinic, get the job done, and be traumatized by how invasive and physical the ordeal is, of how she was treated like a number in the line. She is not gonna reach out and talk about how much cramping and bleeding there was, she’s not gonna properly process what happened, and will also have to deal with whatever shit situation drove her into abortion to begin with (crappy boyfriend, rape, poverty, etc), all because abortion is supposed to be ““funny”” and obviously it’s something wrong with HER, not abortion. Teen girls, malleable and un-educated on the subject of abortion thanks to ignormuses like LPJL, are being targeted by this propaganda and it’s going to kill innocent babies as well as their mother’s innocence. This is evil, pure and simple.
