As the unhinged left continues to come unglued in the aftermath of Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signing the state’s fetal heartbeat bill into law last week, some have taken extreme measures to express their displeasure.
Case in point: Actor Jim Carrey, who as Red State‘s Brandon Morse pointed out earlier took to the Twitter machine over the weekend to post a graphic piece of Kay Ivey “art” he created on the subject:
I think If you’re going to terminate a pregnancy, it should be done sometime before the fetus becomes Governor of Alabama. pic.twitter.com/6QgsY2rMz7

As of this writing, the tweet has over 20,000 retweets.
Sen. Ted Cruz weighed in on Carrey’s protest art earlier today, calling it “vicious” and “dehumanizing”:
This is not OK. Today’s Left: vicious, angry & consumed by hate. Instead of insults & dehumanizing rage, we should return to civility. I disagree w/ Carrey’s politics, but believe we should respect his humanity nonetheless. I wish he could reciprocate. #LoveIsStrongerThanHate https://t.co/vKVGZzou1q

As The Hill points out, this isn’t the first time Cruz and Carrey have been at odds over the actor’s political cartoons:
Last year, when Cruz was in a tight reelection bid against then-Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas), Carrey shared an illustration of the GOP lawmaker as a “bloodsucking” vampire.
Cruz responded by saying Hollywood liberals were “all in” for O’Rourke. “But (self-described socialist) Jim Carrey made a mistake here,” Cruz wrote on Twitter, “Vampires are dead, and everyone knows the dead vote Democrat…”
Hollywood liberals all in for Beto. But (self-described socialist) Jim Carrey made a mistake here: Vampires are dead, and everyone knows the dead vote Democrat…. https://t.co/pz2g4RYmMp

Other pro-life Twitter users correctly pointed out how Carrey’s drawing of Kay Ivey being aborted proved he understood the ghoulish nature of abortion and still supported it, while others noted his post should be considered incitement under Twitter’s (and the left’s) rules of engagement:
At least you seem to know how grisly an abortion is. Your image is accurate down to the abortionist’s cannula suctioning out the brain matter of the fetus, sort of like a serial killer at work. Bravo Jim Carry, you do know what an abortion looks like. Bravo!

Thank you for the truly accurate (and therefore horrifying) portrayal of abortion… sucking out the brains of a PERSON because that person is inconvenient to you. You blessed the pro life movement with this.

You were one of my favorite actors. Honestly I’m disgusted by your lack of respect for the image is what happens to babies. They are sucked out of the mother. Shame on you Jim.

The extreme double standard of @jack & @Twitter on full, gross display here. @JimCarrey publicly wishes death on someone and posts a gory photo of them being killed. He explicitly promotes a very violence that kills almost 1M people a year in the United States. & zero response.

This should be the end of your twitter activity. Period. If anyone else would have posted it, they would be deactivated.

As of this writing, Carrey’s post is still up, and there is no indication from Twitter that they’ll take action.
Typical.
