Is there an example of an anti-abortion group being deplatformed that you can point me towards? I saw Reddit banned a number of subreddits on Jan 6, but I don't specifically recall any of them looking like anti-abortion subreddits.

I am wrong about deplatforming in response to 6 Jan. However, prolife groups are regularly deplatformed without presenting misinformation or hate speech.

Liveaction hasn't been deplatformed from what I can see.

https://twitter.com/LiveAction

Looking through their feed they have a real bug up their butt about Planned Parenthood.

Well, I guess they were deplatformed a bit:

Yes the wiki page states their Pinterest account was suspended, along with other media getting dropped from other platforms. Most pro life groups experience the same thing.
