Libs of Tik Tok retweeted a new ad from the pro-Kamala group Won’t PAC Down that explicitly mocks conservative Catholics and Christians who are pro-life. As The Wrap explained, it “features a series of creepy white men telling women that what happens in your bedroom is their business.” They wear cardigans, eek. Or sweat through their shirts.
“Us MAGA Republicans banned abortion, but that’s just the start,” the Cardigan Man with Bad Teeth begins. “If Trump gets elected, we want the government involved in all aspects of your sex life.” The creep actors then claim the uptight religious Republicans want to ban everything, because they're weird:
THESE GUYS ARE JUST WEIRD.

It should be illegal to use contraception. No pills. No condoms.
Your genitals are preserved for procreation.
If you freeze 12 eggs, you should be required to have 12 babies. Or else you’re a serial killer.
The Wrap notes “He adds that he’s not a serial killer — in a way meant to be completely unconvincing.”
It's pretty upside-down to imply the pro-lifers are serial killers, and the abortionists are heroic "life savers." But that's the Left. The PAC was formed to help boost Kamala's appeal to those "sex-positive" voters under 30.
Catholics aren't calling for a contraception ban. The Catholic Church teaches that contraception is sinful because it represents a failure of a man and a woman to give completely of themselves in the conjugal act. On top of that, the spread of artificial contraception matches very neatly the Sexual Revolution, which led to a massive increase of children born out of wedlock and the spread of abortion as the most desperate contraception.
The writer of this supposedly comical ad is a man named Travis Helwig, a former head writer for Crooked Media — best known for hit podcast Pod Save America hosted by former Barack Obama minions. They also attacked Speaker Mike Johnson:
Another leering man says, “My son monitors my porn usage to make sure I’m not self-pleasuring…”
“… Just like Speaker of the House Mike Johnson,” says another unkempt guy, who then talks to his hand in a high-pitched voice. “Don’t you think that’s normal?” “Yeah, I do.” They also offer a QR code to point to online verification of that fact.
They add that "pleasuring yourself is very, very naughty."
One could certainly argue that some of these sweaty men could be swapped in for an ad mocking porn addicts. They're upside-down again: resisting pornography as a sin or as disrespectful and objectifying to women is creepy, and it's not at all creepy to drown yourself in porn. Creepy pornographers are part of the Democratic base.
The ad ends with “I’m voting in November...Are you?” And that "mouth stuff [oral sex] is a sin."
Helwig, whose past credits include the "investigative comedian" series Adam Ruins Everything, told Politico in June they wouldn't be using celebrities in their ads.
“We’re taking the best young writers and directors, who are the age and demographics of the people we’re targeting, using poll-tested messaging, and shaping it in a way that will resonate with young people and get them excited.”
