Planned Parenthood Tweets must be written by The Onion…
I’ve written previously about the tone-deaf nature of Planned Parenthood tweets, so much so that I had wondered if a pro-lifer had secretly infiltrated their ranks. Now I’m starting to think that they’re actually written by someone from the satire site, The Onion…
In our hearts and minds today: all of the fathers and parents who have been separated from their children at borders. Keep families together. #FathersDay

Planned Parenthood cares so much about keeping mother and child together and about celebrating fatherhood…

You know your founder, Margaret Sanger, was a eugenicist, right?!

Well, Planned Parenthood has a way of avoiding needing to go to the delivery room at all…
Friday Frivolity: Cecile Tweets
In the past I’ve covered some of the breathtaking marketing programmes from Planned Parenthood and their tendency to shoot themselves in the foot. For today’s “Friday Frivolity”, I wanted to share a tweet put out by Cecile Richards, the President of the abortion provider:
You know what we call people who practice the rhythm method?
Parents.

Here’s how my friend Katie responded…
You know what we call people who continue to call NFP "the rhythm method"?
Ignorant. https://t.co/rmABf8QNyX

I was about to close the browser tab, but then I decided to peruse some more of Ms Richards’ tweets as I drank my tea. I then came across this tweet…
Birth control is good for business! Commit to providing birth control coverage. Join us: Be a #BusinessForBChttps://t.co/diUpYufYwO

I first noticed the comment. The phrase “Birth control is good for business” pretty much translates into “Sterilize your workforce and their family won’t get in the way of their productivity”. However, then I noticed the graphic used in the tweet. It looked so familiar… they didn’t, did they? I clicked on the link…
Yup, Planned Parenthood had used a graphic of an NFP chart! Apparently they do know what is! Maybe they could consider this a better way to plan parenthood?
Planned Parenthood Marketing strikes again!
A while ago I commented on some recent gaffs from the Planned Parenthood marketing department. Today I came across an old one from 2015:
Apparently, Planned Parenthood is a “safe” place for anyone, regardless of “…age…body shape, size, and ability”. This is an immensely interesting claim, since the killing of the unborn is very often justified because of their age, body shape, size and ability…
Is a pro-lifer in charge of Planned Parenthood marketing?
Over the past week, I’ve shared several short posts pointing out that Planned Parenthood doesn’t seem to understand irony (Post 1 | Post 2). I’m now starting to think that there’s some kind of conspiracy theory! Has Planned Parenthood has accidentally hired someone who is pro-life to head up their marketing department?
The latest advertising campaign from the abortion provider begins with the words “Watch. Share. Slay“:
What an unfortunate choice of words! The introductory paragraph attempts to explain this rather questionable title:
If there’s anything we’ve learned from Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, The Avengers) over the years, it’s this – every single one of us has a hero inside ; and its our responsibility to use our superpowers to slay.
Erm, Planned Parenthood, this isn’t sounding any better… What exactly is being slain here? In Joss Whedon’s TV show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it is evil beings which are slain: vampires, demons etc. Tell me, what exactly gets slain at Planned Parenthood?
Being able to thank your mother…
A couple of days ago I had a quick post where I pointed out that Planned Parenthood, the abortion provider, doesn’t appear to understand irony. Well, they strike once again, this time by retweeting a Mother’s Day message from their president Cecile Richards…
Nothing says "I love you, Mom!" like standing up for the right of mothers everywhere to get the care they need. https://t.co/uFRM9UeosH

Thanks to the work of Planned Parenthood, 50 million people never had the chance to tell their mothers that they loved them and a similar number never got to hear it…
PP Irony
You know, I don’t think that Planned Parenthood, the abortion provider, gets irony. This was one of their recent tweets…
