A lot of people are taking Texas’ heartbeat bill going into effect pretty hard.
There’s Dan Rather, of course, who suggested that people who want to protect unborn children are the kind of people who are OK with the Taliban oppressing women. Apparently CNN is also a fan of nonsensical comparisons:

That’s not a smart take, but it’s exactly the sort of take you’d expect from a CNN legal analyst.
Just like this is exactly the sort of take you’d expect from a CNN anchor like Alisyn Camerota:

It cannot be overstated, Alisyn? Because we’re pretty sure you just overstated it.
Oooooh. Dark Dystopian Undertones™️ … <cue scary music> https://t.co/RqFT0Wc8Y7

Babies are a dark dystopian undertone?

“I can’t just kill my baby whenever I want to anymore, I have to do it before there’s a heartbeat. Dystopian. Dark. I can’t fathom it.” https://t.co/Yp6s5YE8Zt

Does Alisyn hear herself?
Because encouraging women to kill their own children is not dark and dystopian. 🤡

It’s quite literally the opposite. Only in a dystopian novel would the premise be society murdering hundreds of thousands of babies for the purpose of keeping “order” or preserving “rights”

We cannot overstate our disgust with CNN.
