Homicide always requires a certain hubris: a pride that vaunts the "wants" or "needs" of the killer over the life of the killed.
That hubris is now on display with a posting from "Auntie Lynn."
That hubris is now on display with a posting from "Auntie Lynn."
That posting directs itself to the women of Georgia (and other States adopting "#heartbeat" #abortion restrictions).
The posting pretends to be an invitational note from an old Auntie who lives in New York. Well, no, it is an invitation so it isn't a pretense in that respect.

The pretense is that it comes from one's Aunt rather than from folks involved in #murdering #uterine #children for hire. Auntie Lynn wants poor repressed mothers in #Georgia and elsewhere to know that #abortions will still be available to them in #NewYork.
In fact, Auntie Lynn assures her readers that they will be welcome, will be treated like family (after all, isn't this what family is about, killing off the progeny?),
and will be feted in such a way that social media reflections of a visit to NY will actually look like a vacation rather than a trip to a death camp.
Yes, you see, in the snarky fashion that guns for hire can have, in their hubris, these folks are calling themselves the #undergroundrailroad2019.
What complete #assery.
What complete #assery.
The #undergroundrailroad didn't lead to #Auschwitz, to #BergenBelsen, to #Dachau. The #ThirdReich's railroads did.
To discern whether Auntie Lynn is a new #HarrietTubman or an #AdolfEichmann, you simply look at the terminal station of the railroad.

The real #UndergroundRailroad was a road to life. It was a road to recognition of #equaldignity as humans of African slaves.
#HarrietTubman's railroad operated on the basic principle of that very HUMANITY that #Southerners denied every time they claimed that blacks were the mere #chattels of plantation owners.
So, in the rather @RashidaTlaib fashion of a complete rewrite of the Palestinian cooperation with #AdolfHitler, Auntie Lynn converts the road to life that was the #UndergroundRailroad into a #railroadtodeath and #destruction, which is what #abortion always involves.
