It would certainly make more sense to label the center as MAGAts.
The diagram presumes that people who are pro-life are pro-death penalty, and also that people who are pro-choice are automatically anti-death penalty.
There are definitely people who protest at abortion clinics and also at executions. Just because someone is pro-life doesn't mean they are automatically a hypocrite.
The point is that all three of those things are pro-death.
Calling yourself pro-life and supporting policies that directly lead to death is hypocritical.
Also, the diagram doesn't have anything in the two circle overlaps, so that's saying there's no common trait between the two (although there definitely are)
There is literally only one guy who is both pro-birth and anti-gun, and I know that because when they found him he got interviewed on Sunday Morning as an oddity.
Yes, they are, because forced birthing is deadly. The idea of calling it "pro life" is on its face a hypocritical position.
They are welcome to call it pro-forcing-pregnancy-to-term-under-any-circumstance But I suspect that even those ghouls know it makes for a bad headline
