Anybody Else Starting to Suspect @AmandaMarcotte Eats Dead Babies?

Posted on | April 13, 2013 | 62 Comments

Just briefly noted last night that The Beast Who Wears Bangs had made an obnoxious fool of herself blaming pro-lifers for the heinous crimes of Kermit Gosnell, but even I didn’t really expect that she would be so eager to double down on bloodthirsty stupidity:

Man, the feeding frenzy over Gosnell is a sobering reminder of how much hatred there is out there towards women.
@AmandaMarcotte, April 13

In this rhetorical formulation, the normal and expected reaction to pregnancy is to seek an abortion, so that “women” exist only insofar as they are defined by their right to abortion choice.

This conveniently defines out of existence any woman who is pro-life: To be a woman is to be pro-abortionchoice.

In this bizarre Manichean dualism, there are only (a) people who share Amanda Marcotte’s gruesome death-fetish for maximizing the number of abortions, and (b) people who hate women. Somehow, within her rigid worldview, she must rationalize headlines like this:

Abortionist Slit Necks Of Babies Born Alive
In Front Of Teenage Employee, Told Assistant,
“That’s What You Call A Chicken With Its Head Cut Off”

It is the attempt to rationalize such brutality — to think of themselves as humanitarian philanthropists for defending this cruelty — that makes Amanda Marcotte and her comrades so manifestly insane.

She sees dead babies and thinks “feeding frenzy“? As a Rorshach inkblot test, that result speaks volumes about Amanda Marcotte.

    I want to go back to the universe I was born in, where people cared about children and didn’t kill them.

    I’m sure you do like to ‘turn it around on them, which must be highly entertaining for whoever you’re yapping at, given that you’re wrong. http://www.cancer.org/cancer/breastcancer/moreinformation/is-abortion-linked-to-breast-cancer

    I don’t care about you enough to hate you, dear heart. I just think you’re a waste of resources.

    Women have been having abortions literally since the beginning of time – legal, illegal or otherwise. So, when was this idealized time of yours, again?

    Totally. Rape victims should always carry a condom, you know, just in case.
