Before we get to the meat of this post, we wanted to point out that YouTube is apparently appending “context” to videos about abortion the same way Twitter offered links to official sources to tweets referencing COVID-19. The House Oversight Committee on Friday held a hearing called, “Examining the Harm to Patients from Abortion Restrictions and the Threat of a National Abortion Ban,” and YouTube has appended the following:
An abortion is a procedure to end a pregnancy. It uses medicine or surgery to remove the embryo or fetus and placenta from the uterus. The procedure is done by a licensed healthcare professional.
And then YouTube links you to a site called Medline Plus to give you more “trusted” information about abortion.
That aside, testifying Friday was Dr. Bhavik Kumar, medical director for primary and transgender care at Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast in Houston, Texas. He’s certainly not the first to say it, but he claimed that abortion restrictions are “fundamentally part of the white supremacist agenda.”

"Patients … don’t care whether they're six weeks or 15 weeks," he said. "They know they can't be pregnant. They need care, and they’ll go to whatever lengths they can to get that care."https://t.co/AogdfsRZJa

Racist, classist, and white supremacist. Yeah, we’ve heard it before.

Is there anything that is not racist?

Tell that to Margaret Sanger.

Margaret Sanger was an actual, literal white supremacist (but this guy certainly knows that already).

I think the effort on the left to make everything, good or bad, into "white supremacy" is really losing the audience.

So… I don't like wasting my time… how does that work exactly? If someone could summarize how abortion bans are part of the "white supremacist agenda" for me in a few sentences, I'd be very appreciative..

He also said men can have babies.

He's reflecting. Actually total opposite.

Where can we download the white supremacist agenda? Is there a committee? Do they hold seminars? Is there a group, we’ll call them “journalists”, that do anything other than parrot leftie talking-points?

Imagine thinking that wanting babies of all races and backgrounds to live is “white supremacist.”
Do you even hear what you are saying? It makes ZERO sense.

Yesterday's racists: "We need the minorities to have abortions to keep their numbers down."
Today's progressive: "If you don't let us keep the numbers of minorities down, you are racist. "

This is not a morally or intellectually coherent statement. It's an effort to cynically exploit natural outrage at racial and class injustice for the purpose of defending abortion. Dr. Kumar is a demagogue and propagandist.

Dr. Bhavik Kumar is a liar whose livelihood depends upon murdering babies.
— Elite Press (@ElitePressTX) October 1, 2022
Kumar’s getting ratio’d in a big way, but there’s one person frantically trying to respond to every tweet, saying that not aborting a black baby means more blacks in poverty, which sounds pretty racist. If you’re poor and pregnant, you could always go to a crisis pregnancy center, but Sen. Elizabeth Warren is on a rabid crusade to have them shut down nationwide.
