"Many urban and secular Americans experienced those events with the same feeling of doom as pro-choice Americans may feel today after the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade," Frum wrote. In a lengthy dissection of Prohibition, Frum described the movement, as well as pro-life activism, as religiously and morally motivated towards mass mobilization. As such, he believed the pro-life movement is similarly doomed to failure."Prohibition and Dobbs were and are projects that seek to impose the values of a cohesive and well-organized cultural minority upon a diverse and less-organized cultural majority. Those projects can work for a time, but only for a time.
Although Frum criticized pro-choice organizations for being buried under political issues, he was optimistic about Democrat chances in 2022 and 2024.
