The closest anybody came was <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PPact\/status\/696793894634151936\">one tweet<\/a> from Planned Parenthood Action, and even that was just a broader objection to \u201csexist #SB50 ads.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Most of them, it seems, have the good sense to understand that there is no public-relations upside to politicizing something that was not a commentary on abortion in any way, or going out of their way to associate abortion with a pregnancy so far along that the baby was about to be born (as Mollie Hemingway <a href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2016\/02\/08\/abortion-activists-respond-to-funny-doritos-ad-about-babies-with-bizarre-twitter-rants\/\">puts it<\/a> at the Federalist, \u201cWhat the hell? Aborting a baby who just exited the womb in order to have a Dorito chip is called infanticide\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>This wasn\u2019t an anti-abortion use of an ultrasound, or an ultrasound early enough in pregnancy that there\u2019s any ambiguity to the image. This was just the ultrasound of what appears onscreen to be a nearly full-term baby, the kind of image seen by most of the parents in the audience (and one with an <a href=\"\/news\/naral-missed-doritos-ultrasound-ad-features-filmmakers-preborn-son\/\">endearing connection<\/a> to a real-life child, no less). To single it out as anti-choice propaganda does nothing but alienate people who don\u2019t already think like them, by emphasizing the <a href=\"\/news\/quote-of-the-day-doritos-didnt-make-the-human-fetus-human-naral\/\">absurdity of pro-aborts\u2019 denial of basic biology<\/a> and detouring the cause of abortion away from feigned concern for women\u2019s health, their strongest ground, and instead associating it with irrational fear and hatred toward the mere sight of a cute, innocent baby\u2014lending credence to critiques such as Matt Walsh\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theblaze.com\/contributions\/yes-abortion-fans-resent-children-that-should-come-as-no-surprise\/\">assertion<\/a> that \u201cwhen it comes down to it, abortion fans hate children,\u201d or at least \u201chate or resent what the babies represent\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">To abortion lovers, children are grotesque symbols of the enslavement and subjugation of women. Radical pro-abortion militants may claim that they have nothing against women who choose to birth these parasites, but in their weaker moments, when their guard is down and they\u2019ve been sipping a little too much Pinot while monitoring the big game for the faintest suggestion of anything even slightly unfeminist, their true feelings come out. They see a child in an ultrasound portrayed as a child \u2014 even in the context of an idiotic Doritos commercial \u2014 and they react with revulsion. It\u2019s instinctive. It\u2019s reflexive. Children are offensive to them.<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So with the exception of NARAL, most of the abortion lobby has had enough restraint to avoid inviting that kind of <a href=\"\/news\/not-buying-it-swift-backlash-against-naral-anti-life-super-bowl-tweets\/\">inevitable backlash from normal people<\/a>. But where does that leave NARAL? Just crazy?<\/p>\n<p>Not exactly. While simple radicalism is surely the reason why they saw nothing untoward or self-defeating with condemning a chip company for showing an ultrasound on national television, blind, irrational hatred is probably not the only thing (maybe not even the primary thing) that inspired the tweet in the first place. No, in all likelihood, strategic desperation was at least as big a factor.<\/p>\n<p>Abortion is most palatable when one is under the impression that there is no baby, just some inhuman, irrelevant tissue. If it doesn\u2019t kill anyone, there\u2019s no controversy. Abortion advocates <a href=\"\/news\/some-pro-choice-activists-admit-abortion-kills-life-i-knew-it-was-a-baby\/\">know this is nonsense<\/a>, but most of them also know that if they shifted to an <a href=\"\/news\/abortionist-secret-meeting-violence-person-killing\/\">honest \u201cyes we\u2019re killing, but here\u2019s why it\u2019s okay\u201d argument<\/a> like the <a href=\"\/news\/pulling-the-plug-on-the-violinist-argument-for-abortion\/\">bodily autonomy case for abortion<\/a>, the public would instinctively reject it. So they\u2019re stuck with an unsustainable lie.<\/p>\n<p>They mostly get away with it, thanks to a <a href=\"\/news\/257-media-outlets-and-journalists-awarded-by-planned-parenthood\/\">complicit<\/a> <a href=\"\/news\/mainstream-media-gave-1-minute-13-seconds-reporting-planned-parenthood-baby-parts-videos\/\">media<\/a> that refuses to confront them on it. They <a href=\"\/news\/abortions-decline-planned-parenthood-cant-honestly-deny-ultrasounds-power\/\">fear ultrasounds<\/a> for their power to expose the lie, but even when discussing state informed consent laws, they usually manage to shift the conversation to the <a href=\"\/news\/president-of-now-equates-ultrasounds-to-rape-outright-lies-to-gain-support\/\">supposed burden<\/a> on the woman, and can take solace in the fact that the only people ultrasound laws expose prenatal images to are potential customers rather than voters.<\/p>\n<p>But put the image of a live, adorable baby in front of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.si.com\/nfl\/2016\/02\/08\/super-bowl-50-tv-ratings-media-circus\">111 million viewers<\/a>, many of whom don\u2019t follow politics regularly and may not have made a conscious connection between abortion headlines and the identifiable life at issue, and suddenly NARAL\u2019s got a public-relations nightmare on their hands. So from a certain depraved starting point, lashing out in hopes of discrediting the image would probably seem like the only logical decision.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for them, just because you\u2019ve backed yourself into a corner doesn\u2019t mean the only option you see is a good one. NARAL has only reinforced the inhumane public image they had hoped to deflect. So, pro-lifers, let\u2019s keep the ultrasounds coming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The most interesting thing about NARAL\u2019s freakout over the Doritos Super Bowl commercial depicting a hungry baby on an ultrasound is how few of their own allies wanted to join them in bashing the ad\u2019s \u201c#antichoice tactic of humanizing fetuses.\u201d [youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vH2LsFcWOFY&amp;w=560&amp;h=315] Sure, there were tweets of agreement from pro-abortion viewers, and a variety of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":54,"featured_media":87182,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false},"categories":[3],"tags":[19,5804,7424,1150,76,3962,6708,7422,7425,5522,127,3741],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>NARAL attacked Doritos baby because they know the dehumanizing jig is up<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"NARAL has only reinforced the inhumane public image they had hoped to deflect.
