I have felt that they have been after family planning and birth control for years. It was so well masked. For some reason they feel that they can be out in the open now and even double down on their agenda.

Why now? Do they feel that they have the election rigged? Do they feel that the brainwashing for 30 years has been so effective that young women won't notice or care? Or do they feel like they have marginalized and dis empowered the feminist movement? After all most of the most active feminists are now much older and younger women seem to be much more pliable.
