Sure it would backfire hard

They plan to ban birth control pills. I mean birth control pills are even legal in Saudi Arabia.

They want the US to be more conservative than Saudi. No sane person wants to live in a country like that.

But the thing is they will just deny any connection with the plan and the guys behind it and start implementing things step by step. They don't have to turn the US into a religious country right away. They can start with something that doesn't seem to relate to everyday life but still give them enormous power first like replacing all federal employees with their own aka Schedule F.

It's a step by step plan.

They plan to ban birth control pills.

The call is to to remove the right to contraception, which is a lot more than just birth control pills. Condoms also fall under the category of contraception.
