One of these is a one-time stunt, the other is thousands of storefronts that hope a women seeking an abortion will reach them first and they can talk them out of it.
I live close to a very liberal city (we call the high school ‘Evergreen State High’) that has 1 abortion clinic and 2 crisis pregnancy centers.
I don't think the differing scale explains this. It's not like people said the "one-time stunt" was wrong but they weren't going to get upset because it wasn't a big deal; they instead actively supported and condoned it.
This isn't a 1700s philosophy discussion. People aren't upset about this because of 'the element of deception'. It seems to me that someone playing a joke on a guy is very different from systematically trying to stop desperate people from exercising their right to bodily autonomy. Maybe that's just me though,
But crisis pregnancy centers don't perform fake abortions. It'd be more like a fake gun shop that didn't actually stock any guns, and instead just tried to talk anyone who showed up out of buying one.
