The Twitter account @LibertyHangout is attached to an organization founded by Kaitlin Bennet‘s husband, otherwise known as “gun girl,” a conservative talking head who never says much of anything worth listening to. Now she has extra Twitter accounts to spread her bad idea from, including this one that is getting roasted on Twitter and Reddit at once.

“Birth control is just another form of abortion,” the account lied. “You cannot be Christian and participate in the willful termination of children’s lives. Thank God for the Catholic Church for consistently opposing this evil for 2000 years.”
The responses make it very clear why almost every word of that post is false, just in case you need a medical or history lesson. That probably doesn’t mean anything to Bennett, because facts and logic aren’t her thing. But pretty surprised to see birth control isn’t her thing. Is she still a virgin?

“Liberty Hangout,” yet spends all of their time describing all of the ways in which personal liberty should be limited. Curious. —Cheshire_Khajiit

Condoms are birth control. Condoms prevent a life from ever beginning. If that is abortion, then not having sex while fertile is abortion. If you are fertile and not married, then not having premarital sex is abortion. Therefore, if you oppose premarital sex, then you are supporting abortion. —Cometguy7

I was on my mother’s health insurance (she taught at a Catholic school) when I was a teen. My Dr prescribed birth control for managing PCOS and severe acne- I wasn’t even having sex. They refused to cover it so I had to pay out of pocket- over $100/month. —fortalameda1

The same Catholic church that blamed the little boys for turning priests “gay”? The one that simply moved abusive priests to a new place? —Longjumping_Zebra_23

Once these nutters get abortion outlawed, they’re going after birth control next. Isn’t it fun to be traveling backward in time? —tkp14

Masturbating is literally the same as several million abortions, according to this. —Marilius

Abstinence is also another form of abortion, right? —Cookie-Ecstatic

I think if science can’t be accepted in super strict religious people, then they should sacrifice most technological advancements from the past 2,000 years. Brush your teeth with a twig and charcoal, wear a potato sack for clothing. Shit in a bucket, wipe your arse with a washable cloth and pray away the polio. Electricity is a total no no. Slaughter a goat and make candles from ovine fat. Don’t use that fucking ballpoint pen, make a net out of your old potato sack dress, catch a squid, steal it’s ink and write on a splintered chunk of oak that you lumbered with your bronze tools. Antibiotics are the devil, because god wanted 7 year old children to die from Whooping cough, so throw them out; and blood transfusions can fuck off because the book of Genisis and Leviticus told them to fuck off.
On the upside, at least you can kill babies on your own watch. —MustardKingCustard

I just don’t understand. Jesus was literally born from a Virgin. If the messiah wants to be born, birth control won’t stop it . —sssnakeysssnake

It’s so wild that this is a thing. There are many reasons people use it, not just to ‘terminate children’. For example, I have to take birth control as an estrogen supplement for my health… They’re so dumb. —chloe12801

Looks like someone hasn’t read Thomas Aquinas. Ensoulment happens during the quickening which is around 4-5 months of pregnancy according to the Catholic Church until around 1890 or something. —1hour

What even is the upside to being Christian these days? You gotta do shit on Sundays, AND you can’t take care of yourself? What a f-cking joke. —Mr-Papuca
