I don't necessarily disagree. In fact, I've made similar arguments over the years. Remember when the argument was "Well, abortion sucks, but it's necessary"? Yeah, that's went out the window now. "Let's celebrate our 19th abortion on Twitter! sponsored by Google! Yay women!"
I still think you're arguing semantics, though. But it's not an invalid approach, I guess.
You do you. If it works for you, you're doing God's work. Despite your well-reasoned argument, I would, myself, still consider any sort of abortion ban a success.
Think of it this way, if it is God's work, learn all the ways to communicate with someone. Learn all the semantics if needed.
My point is what is posted will not succeed in swaying people. Something like: Planned parenthood made 1.67 billions in 2017-2018 & 79% of their surgical abortion facilities were within walking distance of African American or Hispanic communities.
How do we feel about profiting off of abortions? what would Jesus say?
I found your reply here, which perhaps you meant for me?
I dislike the term pro-life because it's not what I support, at all. The moment you take this stance, you're asked how can you support the death penalty if you're pro-life?
Therefore, I define what I support as anti-murder, which includes some of these important points:
No murdering of innocent babies.
Don't let murderers live.
If someone attempts to murder someone else, killing in defense of others is fine when it's the best option available.
When a baby is going to murder its mother, we can protect the mother from being murdered by killing the baby.
A baby can't "murder" it's mother. (Murder is intent.)
But I understand your point.
I don't support the death penalty for one reason - if the state murders someone who didn't murder, then they committed murder. It's a catch 22. I'm not against the death penalty for moral reasons, but there have been far, far too many cases of people murdered by the state who were later exonerated. People on death row, too.
I know that's a digression. But I guess it's germane. So, at least I'm logically consistent.
The phrase anti-murder is derived from the Bible. Exodus and Deuteronomy have 10 statements, one of them being "Don't murder". Therefore, I am anti-murder.
Hmm.

IMHO is more effective in reach and persuasion.
See,I disagree that it's not persuasive.
I've seen no evidence to support your claim, and I've never even heard it before you, at least in terms of this specific phrase - "anti-murder."
Persuasion is one level, one tactic, say. Legal redress is another. Both support a strategy of no (minimizing) non-therapeutic abortions.
