Daily Abolitionist News and Views From the Frontlines of the Battle to Abolish Abortion.

is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

    Depravity of the American (and Phoenix) Press: A Defense of Jeff Durbin

    The serial killers of the abortion industry make up the most depraved institution in American society, followed by a number of powerful institutions which serve their interests. This would include — among many others — Hollywood, teacher’s unions, and the American press; which is, by and large, a collection of vicious, scheming calumniators who have…

    The Antidote to Van Maren’s Poison

    Jonathan Van Maren partially responded to our article which corrected his false statements from a podcast episode with Josh Brahm on various aspects of the history of the Abortion Abolition Movement and the Slavery Abolition Movement.

    Jonathan Van Maren and Josh Brahm. Yikes.

    Until recently, I liked Jonathan Van Maren despite his incrementalism. He has written good stuff about abortion victim images, euthanasia, pornography, and other moral issues. He is a skilled communicator and one of two journalists whose work I studied closely when I began as a writer. That makes this whole situation rather sad for me,…

  • “Why so vehement? So unyielding? So severe?”

    “Why so vehement? So unyielding? So severe?”

    The abortion-loving, pornified, plastic status quo exists because people love the status quo. The norm is comfort and stability. Change is chaotic and uncertain. People are sure to cling to what they know.  How do you dislodge idols from the hands of those who love them? You assail them verbally and make them look as…

    Four Problems With David Barton’s Incrementalism Apologia

    In a video uploaded to Facebook last Tuesday, author and activist David Barton argued for incrementalism and against immediatism in the fight against abortion. Barton is the former Vice Chair of the Texas Republican Party, so the video was likely in response to Texas abolitionists who are seeking to make abortion’s immediate abolition an official…

  • Why Do Pro-Lifers Despise Abolitionists?

    Why Do Pro-Lifers Despise Abolitionists?

    I was working for a pro-life organization when I became an abolitionist. In my time with that organization, I was told by my employers and by other pro-life leaders that Abolitionists were unnecessarily mean and divisive. Even after embracing abolitionism as an ideology, I still figured that the accusations were probably true. The ideas of…

    Are Nullification’s Advocates the “Villains” of American History?

    On the evening of March 10th, 1854, two wagons carrying seven men approached a cabin in Racine, WI. Inhabiting the cabin was escaped slave Joshua Glover and the men were federal agents. By the authority of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 and a warrant signed by a federal judge, the men burst into Glover’s…
