Yeah, i understand what it's referencing, but it's a stupid comic, since none of those are what the anti abortion crowd care about, or are probably even aware of.
It is pointing out the stupidity of their position because - you're right - they don't care about or even know about the other services PP provides. They tend to view it as nothing beyond a facilitator of abortion and they want it bankrupted. That's why their rallying cry is 'Defund Planned Parenthood' and not 'Defund The Abortions Planned Parenthood Provides But Keep All The Other Stuff'.
It may not be what they care about, but, if they get their way, it is what is going to happen.
