Let's check on the ghouls at The New York—oh, oh no
· Jul 14, 2022 · NottheBee.com

Sometimes I like to go over to check out The New York Times opinion page, Knucklehead Row as the Daily Wire's Andrew Klavan has dubbed it, to see what the crazies on the Left are thinking about.

But honestly, I never thought I would see such a ghoulish headline as this one:

We've gone from "safe, legal, and rare" to "shout your abortion" to "please laugh about my abortion with me" in just a few years.

Just in case anyone tells you the right are the radicals, point to this story.

The article is from a self-described comedian, Alison Leiby, who is obviously trying to hide the guilt and shame of murdering her preborn child by joking about it and getting you to join her in her self-deception.

I know that the attention "Oh God, a Show About Abortion" has gotten is not because I wrote a perfect comedy show. It's in part because we're living through a tumultuous and painful — and hopefully brief — moment when the right to abortion has been ripped away. It's also because a lot of people appear to relate to my story. I talk in the show about how I feel bad about not feeling bad about my abortion. I talk about how hard it is to be a woman who doesn't want children in a culture that doesn't make room for us outside of a few depressing stereotypes. I talk about how surprisingly simple my abortion experience was, despite the fact that every corner of our society told me it would be an overwhelming tragedy. I get messages from audience members all the time telling me they were delighted or relieved to see something they have felt or experienced accurately reflected back at them, without apology.

This is a culture that has gone beyond the brink. Leiby crafted an entire show about the murder of her child and then gets laughs and applause from people in the audience.

She not only assuaged her own guilt but has worked to silence the consciences of others.

It used to be that every abortion is a tragedy. Now it's a joke.

I hope that the show helps destigmatize a procedure that should have no stigma. The show also has helped me on a personal level. I needed to laugh through my abortion experience because the alternative — the way my life without the abortion could have turned out — is so upsetting.

Also, it's funny that there was a maternity wear store across the street from a Planned Parenthood.

There are no words to describe this type of depravity.
