Kevin Roberts, who leads thinktank that drafted blueprint for second Trump presidency, made remark in January

In a speech earlier this year, Kevin Roberts, the architect of Project 2025, a vast plan for a second Trump administration, compared abortion to slavery, lynchings, the Holocaust, antisemitic violence and terror attacks.

“Every slave auction, every lynching, every concentration camp, every abortion mill, every pogrom, every terrorist bombing from the Middle East to Kermit Gosnell, from Herod to Hitler to Hamas, has been justified on the same inhuman pretense that the victims aren’t really people,” Roberts said.

    What in the ever-loving fuck is an “abortion mill?” Geez.

    I’m pretty sure he has it backwards. Forcing people to go into labor (literally forced labor) and have an unwanted or unviable birth, is much closer to slavery than allowing people the freedom to make their own healthcare decisions. All women are the slaves in this understanding, in case that wasn’t clear to the ignorant women-hating assholes who believe they shouldn’t be able to control their own families or bodies.

    I know logic doesn’t apply to these people, but for fuck’s sake, I wish they would take a breath and listen to themselves and how absurd they sound.
