This is just pure gold from RNC Research. Whatever happened to “Shout your abortion!” What about the “It’s Aborted” cake for your post-abortion get-together with friends? What about all of the “Abortion on demand, without apology” T-shirts? Women have been encouraged to come forward with their abortion stories for years, but Democratic Rep. Kathleen Rice says the word has been “weaponized,” in her opinion. A doctor suggested that the striking down of Roe v. Wade was the perfect opportunity to have a robust discussion on abortion, but Rice suggested the doctor “stop throwing the word abortion around” because it makes it come across as something that’s negative.
Well … what do you want to call it?

I thought it was cool, edgy, and empowering to “shout their abortions”?
— Orwell84 (@LiveNotByLies1) July 19, 2022
That works. Let's use "baby killing."
— JungleMary (@JungleMary1) July 19, 2022
Ok, let's go with "terminating a baby in the womb" instead.

I vote for "live baby dismemberment."

Will using the word “murder” be more appropriate?
— Robby McClung (@robbymcclung) July 19, 2022
The word isn't the problem.
It's the killing part.

It is what it is.

"Abortion" is already sugarcoating what it is that they're actually doing.

Truth.
The word "kill" would be negative. The word abortion is the perfect description of what goes on. I thought the left view is abortion is wonderful and self love.
— Simon Gould (@SimonGould) July 19, 2022
'abortion' is actually a pretty euphemistic way of referring to it. the most accurate term would probably be infanticide or feticide. 'abortion' doesn't mention either the killing part or the human part, so you should want to stick to 'abortion.'

Oh my! The actual word that defines the act is a 'problem' for the mind-control language police? The culture curators are hard at work, as always.
— Chris (@myopicseer) July 19, 2022
Yeah, she's right! Infanticide is much more appropriate.

GOOD. Negative emotions are there to alert us to something is wrong so we can correct it.

Translation: it’s bad for our brainwashing propaganda to convince people that abortion is a good thing.
— Mike Logan (@SasakiKojir) July 19, 2022
The Democrats already sent out a list of talking points to use when talking about abortion; for example, there are no “unwanted” pregnancies, only “unexpected” pregnancies. Even they didn’t suggest dropping the word abortion, though.
Mostly peaceful abortion, is that better?

Is this on the Democrat clown docket as #93,250 of ridiculousness?
— Miguel (@Endzone49) July 19, 2022
You can't make up the mental gymnastics they go through. Must be exhausting.
— Adam (@imhooks) July 19, 2022
Since “abortion” has been weaponized, what term should we be using to make abortion sound like a happy thing?
