I know it's weird but among all the other better reasons to despise anti-abortion activists, I always felt like, if you genuinely believe that abortion is murder and that hundreds of thousands of innocent fully human babies were being murdered every year, its shocking cowardice that they aren't firebombing clinics every day. I'd like to think that if I was convinced that there was a building in my community that murdered children all day every day that I would do something about it?

    Odds are there's some weapons component factory in your area, given how they like to spread those out everywhere. And there's certainly a prison and a police station. And it's pretty rare for any of those to burn down. Idk where I'm going with this, not trying to be edgy or fedpost, just saying people lived normal lives next to the concentration camps, ya know? Cognitive dissonance or willful ignorance or whatever it is, seems to be a pretty strong force, I don't see why the right wouldn't also be able to believe something and completely ignore it at the same time.

    yeah I hear that. prioritizing personal safety or comfort over action isn't unrelatable lol, there are things I believe are terrible that I don't take direct action against in my community. personally I'm going to wait until I'm old before I start seriously considering assassinating politicians or whatever.

    but people did firebomb abortion clinics and get away with it at one point. they close at night so it would be relatively easy. also lots of people believe that these unbaptized babies don't just die but go to hell so that's a whole other level lol.

    still tho I do understand what you are saying. I guess I could have the same opinion about vegans who don't blow up slaughterhouses right. its just something I always felt about abortion activists probably because I already hard then lol
