Our favorite Democratic wunderkind is at it again. Pete Buttigieg, the man who never met a microphone he didn’t like, has graced us with another pearler of wisdom. This time, he’s decided to enlighten us on how abortion makes men “more free.” Because nothing says freedom like shirking responsibility, right? But before we dive into this cesspool of progressive propaganda, let’s remember why this matters. It’s not just about one man’s misguided musings; it’s about the values that shape our nation’s future. So, buckle up, patriots. We’re about to take a wild ride through the liberal looking glass.
Buttigieg’s Controversial Claims
During a fundraising event aptly named “White Dudes for Kamala/Harris,” Pete Buttigieg dropped a bombshell statement that sent shockwaves through conservative circles. He boldly proclaimed, “Abortion makes men ‘more free.'” This assertion came as part of a broader discussion on various freedoms, including contraception and same-sex marriage.
Buttigieg elaborated on his stance, stating, “I’m so glad she has made freedom the theme of her campaign, and I think in so many ways that’s what’s at stake. And, yes, women’s freedom is Exhibit A after Donald Trump demolished the right to choose. But, of course, men are also more free in a country where we have a president who stands up for things like access to abortion care.”
Pro-Life Backlash
The reaction from pro-life advocates was swift and severe. Ashley McGuire of The Catholic Association didn’t mince words, asserting, “Buttigieg’s male ‘freedom’ comes at the cost of women’s freedom. It creates a world where men are ‘free’ to use women and women are coerced into abortions they don’t want to have.”
“Buttigieg is just admitting what we have always known about abortion: that it empowers men to exploit women” – Ashley McGuire
Carol Tobias, president of the National Right to Life Committee, went even further, calling Buttigieg’s remarks “creepy and disgusting.” She elaborated, “Pete Buttigieg is recklessly suggesting that legal abortion makes men ‘more free’ as they can push a woman into having an abortion in order to shun responsibility.”
The Darker Side of ‘Freedom’
Emily Davis, a pro-life advocate, shared harrowing experiences of women being coerced into abortions by male partners. She poignantly asked, “These brave women have a question for the Democrats: Where was our freedom?” Davis continued, “So far, the Democrats have no answer. Under abortion czar Kamala Harris, they’re too committed to pushing an all-trimester, no-limits abortion agenda.”
“Not only have I experienced this firsthand, but every day more women come forward to talk about how they were pressured or coerced into unwanted abortions, often by male partners” – Emily Davis
Despite the controversy, or perhaps because of it, the fundraising event managed to raise over $4 million. This substantial sum raises questions about the values driving Democratic fundraising efforts and the priorities of their donors.
