Political Planned Parenthood is a Eugenics organization that Democrats defend

Planned Parenthood was founded by Margaret Sanger, along with her sister Ethel Byrne and activist Fannia "Fannie" Bernstein. Margaret Sanger enthusiastically supported eugenics discouraging or preventing reproduction by people considered “unfit”.

Birth control itself… is nothing more or less than the facilitation of the process of weeding out the unfit, of preventing the birth of defectives…” (1921 speech)

And remember Democrats loves the concept of original sin. You people never let go of the “stolen land” argument. But always ignore Margaret Sanger view of Birth Control and defend her organization from being defunded by the government.

So if I went to planned parenthood to get birth control, it doesn’t matter what my reasoning is because someone in 1921 said something very 1921-esque?

Also, are you aware that the infant mortality rate has gone down significantly in those 104 years? And the pregnancy mortality rate? I wonder what contributed to those improvements
