Yo, CBC! UPDATE

Today, there is a story on Lifesite about this train wreck, with a quote from HER, who explains that when fetus-fetishizing, compulsory-pregnancy knobs spam or freep sucessfully it is called ‘winning’. But as Allison@Creekside points out at BreadnRoses, that’s only until the sane people start to ‘win’, then that’s called a poll ‘losing its credibility’.

By the way, CBC, this Lifesite piece includes another link to HER blog with explicit freeping instructions. Share the love.

Edited to add a ten-gallon hat-tip to canadian cynic for the phrase ‘fetus fetishist’, which is soon to become even more widely used. :wink:

    I got FF from pogge who credited canadian cynic.

    That article, yeah. The self-righteous seldom have even an inkling of how freakin’ hilarious they are.

    fern hill, forgive me :sad: I didn’t mean to suggest that everyone should have to give props for the term FF, only lifeshite (and that was kind of a joke, too). We all use it so much, I don’t think anyone cares. And I only found out it was cc’s invention from a post on breadnroses a few months ago, so there you go, credit was already given. :oops: sorry

    S’aright, jj. In fact, over here, Allison@Creekside said it was coined by Gore Vidal. :grin: So like him, yes? I haven’t yet found any reference for that.
