Planned Parenthood Uses Star Wars to Push Agenda

Is Star Wars pro-abortion? Planned Parenthood would like you to think so.

Capitalizing on the Star Wars: The Force Awakens opening weekend, abortion giant Planned Parenthood promoted its cause with a series of light-hearted tweets using phrases and images from the beloved series to push for something serious: its agenda.

Taking to Twitter, Planned Parenthood used Star Wars Pez characters holding up a #StandwithPP sign to prove that “the force” was with it:

WE ARE THE FORCE (to be reckoned with). #StandWithPP https://t.co/HwidqSddKB

Planned Parenthood also combined Rosie the Riveter with Princess Leia to push for a pro-abortion provider “alliance”:

But that wasn’t explicit enough so the organization then reimagined condoms as lightsabers:

May the force be with you. #safersex #condoms #starwars #StarWarsTheForceAwakens pic.twitter.com/W2aQhPTJNc

Despite Planned Parenthood's attempts to portray itself as the “good guy,” the shocking videos released this summer suggest the group aligns more with the Dark Side.
