Is there some benefit here for Trump voters?
I don't see it.
But then again, I don't see how a trade war against the world is going to "Make America Great Again" either. It is much more likely to do the opposite.

If pro life people really cared that millions of babies were murdered every year there would be assassinations against abortion providers and bombings of clinics.
It's about pushing Judeo-Christian morality. Punishing women for having sex outside the goal of procreation.
This has the same goal, STDs are a punishment for loose morals. Preventing or curing them works against that punishment.

Are you claiming there aren’t any?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-abortion_violence#United_...: “In the United States, violence directed towards abortion providers has killed at least eleven people, including four doctors, two clinic employees, a security guard, a police officer, two people (unclear of their connection), and a clinic escort.

If pro-life people really cared about babies they'd put more effort into making sure they were fed and cared for after they were born instead of decrying any programs meant to help. Or about the mothers suffering medical complications because they can't have their non-viable fetus aborted. Pro-life is generally code for pro-birth.
I completely disagree with the parent post's politics but he's right-- abortion providers are frequently compared to Hitler and regularly come out with higher numbers too. If these are your true beliefs, you are a coward for not taking action.
I meant to say the actions against them would be more numerous or meaningingful. I should have been more clear but basically I'm waving off how little has been done by tens of millions who "believe" millions of babies are being murdered. Literally the worst crime that can ever occur, murder, against the most innocent and defenseless humans, babies
Vandalism and stink bombs are what bored teens do, trespassing is a person refusing to leave, and bomb threats are also called in by students hoping to avoid an exam.
As for what matters, even being nice and assuming all the arson crimes were serious..
The 41 bombings and 173 arson events over 48 years in all of North America is nothing
