Oh, I would say hate is very much involved in abortion, in order to work at one of these places, or have any kind of involvement requires some level of hate within the person.
I would say if the doctors, nurses, staff, etc were truthful, they are most likely very unhappy, hateful people, but they have learned how to put on a good poker face.

I'm a medical assistant and it takes a certain amount of compassion to work with sick, irritable people who are in pain. Yes some days suck, some worst then others but you put up with it. At the end of the day you have a satisfaction of helping others.
I don't work in an abortion clinic but I'm sure that the doctors, nurses and other staff have their own opinions on abortion. But as long as the patient can make the decision rationally, they have to put their options aside for the patient.
A person with no knowledge of what it's like to provide abortions is now trying to offer us secret knowledge of what must be going on inside abortion providers' heads. The worst thing about it is the way the statement preemptively argues that anyone with actual, real life experience of being in that position (doctors, nurses, staff), who tries to use the benefit of their experience to refute this claim, must be lying. It's just their "poker face". Ugh.
Most people become doctors or nurses because they want to help people. When a woman gets an unwanted pregnancy, or whose pregnancy threatens her health and/or life, she needs help to remove it early.
In Sweden, abortions are part of a midwife's and gynecologist's work. If you can't make yourself perform abortions, you can't become a midwife or a gynecologist. Women's reproductive rights are civil rights, having a particular degree/profession is not.
I'd say it's much more hateful to refuse to help women with unwanted pregnancies or pregnancies that threaten their health and/or life.
@ Swede
What a rational, civilized policy (requiring providers to perform all services under their specialty).
Wish we were rational and civilized in the US.

I guess those Samaritan unborn were the softest targets for your all-powerrful 'God', eh?
What had they done to him at that point in time to warrant all of his hate , milekek...?
This sounds like a type of ad hominem fallacy. First it denies the existence of a problem, an actual need for girls and women with unwanted pregnancies, who may resort to dangerous procedures without access to proper medical care. In some cases, abortion is also a medical procedure to save the life of the pregnant person, or to protect their health in case they're too young.
Then a frivolous attack on science and medicine that can provide safe solutions and the demonization of its subjects. This makes no sense when aware of the above. It's irrational, it's patriarchy and women subjugation enforcement, natalism enforcement, etc. This type of poster can be predicted to also be against sex education and preservatives, actual working solutions against the unwanted pregnancy problem.
Confused?
