But that’s not the sort of reaction which caught the attention of everyone else. The pro-abortion community, as embodied by NARAL, found the ad disgusting because it portrayed the fetus as (*gasp*) a person who might want some snack chips. Sarah Rumpf at National Review explains.
What's causing controversy is the portrayal of that unborn baby as one with an actual human personality. As NRO's Jay Nordlinger noted earlier, the ad dares to portray the unborn child as human, and "not a meaningless blob of protoplasm."
The pro-abortion activist group NARAL tweeted its disapproval, criticizing Doritos for "using #antichoice tactic of humanizing fetuses."
#NotBuyingIt – that @Doritos ad using #antichoice tactic of humanizing fetuses & sexist tropes of dads as clueless & moms as uptight. #SB50

By showing a "fetus" as not a "clump of cells" but a tiny human being, Doritos exposed the weakness of the pro-abortion worldview: The commitment to denying the humanity of the unborn child is in conflict with basic common sense. Those who prefer to describe their side as "pro-choice" cannot tolerate any evidence that shows the human life that "choice" could be ending.
Counter-suit for the hero whistleblowers.

The Puppy-Monkey-Baby was super stupid.
I’ve seen Mindy Kalings act. I’m amazed she manages to get out of bed in the morning without help.

“unborn child as human, and “not a meaningless blob of protoplasm.””
Saw that and got sick in my soul and physically!!!
I thought it was hilarious. It opens with the doctor or technician saying, “Any day now,” implying the baby’s at full term, so how it’s anti-life I dunno.
I thought it was funny. The worst & most disturbing ad was the puppy-monkey-baby ad
There was an ad for some website that totally didn’t tell us anything about what the website was. Some stupid hip hop people singing or something and a totally forgettable name because they showed it like once at the end.
Dear Abortion Lovers: Yes, it’s true. After 5 weeks, a fetus has a beating heart (documented by ultrasound). Early in the 2nd trimester, you can see limbs, head, body (documented by ultrasound). Just because you choose to ignore it doesn’t mean a fetus is a human (documented by ultrasound).
I laughed MAO!
My favorite.... Doritos OB
Soooooo disappointed in Budweiser. Was looking forward to Clydesdales and puppys.
The dog/monkey/baby.... creepy. Not even well made IMO.
“”That Doritos ad was chilling,” tweeted comedian Mindy Kaling.”
The only thing concerning about the ad would be having to catch the placenta with catcher’s mitt.
