Let’s talk about Operation Save America, the most influential anti-abortion group you’ve never heard of! Its mission is:
1. outlaw abortion
2. criminalize homosexuality
3. eradicate Islam
And we’re just getting started. #OSAunmasked osaunmasked.com/faq/
Some history: OSA started as Operation Rescue and became infamous when they blockaded a #Kansas clinic for weeks in 1991, an action dubbed “Summer of Mercy.” Imagine facing this kinda nightmare when trying to access BASIC HEALTHCARE #OSAunmasked
Since then they’ve grown and gotten a new, equally stupid name, but the hate remains the same. Now, each summer they hold a jam-packed propaganda-palooza, descending upon a single city and hosting a week of anti-abortion hootenannies. #OSAunmasked
This year, they’re taking it ONLINE, because of the pandemic (that their leaders don’t all quite believe is real). 2020’s shindig is called “Defending the Fatherless." Father is a funny way of saying “Guy who couldn’t pull out in time.” So, WHY SHOULD YOU CARE? #OSAunmasked
Because they harass patients outside of clinics daily, they lobby politicians, they blog and vlog and spread their anti-abortion, Christian supremacist message, but they’re not household names. #OSAunmasked
And look, we don’t want them to become famous, but abortion rights are in serious jeopardy. We wish these walking nightmares were just “fringe,” but in real life they’re influencing people writing laws to block access for vulnerable people. #OSAunmasked
They believe Roe should be ignored (kinda like the politicians who pass 6-week bans) and they believe women making their own choices are VERY BAD. ( SCOTUS just said Jesus Chicken Inc. should be able to make people’s “moral” birth control choices for them!). #OSAunmasked
OSA members have harassed trans kids, they think people who are LGBTQ should be oppressed, they’ve burned the Quran. And again, these extremists are outside clinics harassing patients WEEKLY! #OSAunmasked
It’s time to UNMASK just how monstrous these people are. We’re gonna introduce you to their key players all next week, expose their hypocrisy, and tell it to the whole world! Find our toolkit here to see how you can get involved osaunmasked.com #OSAunmasked
