Who was your (abortion access synonym) for president? [The Questionable Authority]
Today, we’ve got an absurd story that leads to a more absurd story. The absurd concerns yet another remarkably asinine wonderfully American attempt to use the inauguration of our 44th President as a marketing ploy:
“Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Inc. (NYSE: KKD) is honoring American’s sense of pride and freedom of choice on Inauguration Day, by offering a free doughnut of choice to every customer on this historic day, Jan. 20. By doing so, participating Krispy Kreme stores nationwide are making an oath to tasty goodies — just another reminder of how oh-so-sweet ‘free’ can be.”
That’s right, in celebration of inauguration day, you have the freedom of choice to do your part to enhance the obesity epidemic without paying one thin dime. Or perhaps I should say, you have the “abortion access on demand” to do your part to enhance the obesity epidemic:
Just an unfortunate choice of words? For the sake of our Wednesday morning doughnut runs, we hope so. The unfortunate reality of a post Roe v. Wade America is that “choice” is synonymous with abortion access and celebration of ‘freedom of choice’ is a tacit endorsement of abortion rights on demand.
That’s right, folks. According to the American Life League’s Judie Brown, the word “choice” is synonymous with the phrase “abortion access” - apparently regardless of the context. Some of you might think that’s a little bit scary. Some of you might think that’s a little bit insane. And some of you might think that this is just funny. That’s fine. Everyone has the right to make that abortion access for themselves. (My own vote, if you’re curious, is for “all of the above”.)
