Twitter is under fire for approving, and promoting, an advertisement for female genital mutilation. With the company’s history of blacklisting the pro-life message, the promotion of female genital mutilation is a huge slap in the face. The Left claims that being pro-choice is about women’s rights and that supporting access to abortion is integral to female reproductive health — and yet, FGM lies in direct opposition to both of those things. Indeed, it would seem that women’s rights only matter to the radical Left when it fits their agenda, otherwise, there’s room to compromise.
The World Health Organization considers FGM to be a violation of human rights for girls and women on multiple accords. And yet, there are multiple instances of Democrat politicians and other members of the Left wing advocating for the procedure. In March 2017, Senate Democrats in the state of Nevada were reportedly “tripping over themselves” to vote for a bill that would legalize FGM. Now we’re seeing advertisements for the procedure circulating on Twitter.
Twitter runs promotion for FGM
As Breitbart reports, Dawoodi Bohra Women for Religious Freedom (DBWRF), was recently allowed to promote a tweet intended to make FGM, called“khafz” by the group, look like a safe, everyday procedure.
The post read, “My daughters have also undergone khafz, and they’re growing up as perfectly as other children of their age. As a mother, I can never do anything to harm them.” The promotion also featured a video testimony which further claimed that the procedure is “healthy” and part of their “religious rite.”
