Babies to Make More Boom-Booms

I feel like all of this right-wing propaganda lately regarding abortions and miscarriages and LGBTQ+ rights, all revolves around the declining birth rate in this country. More and more people are deciding early in life not to reproduce. They're not interested in having kids. Either because it is not affordable, or they don't want to bring kids into the world and screw them up like their parents screwed them up. Or they just don't like children. So they not only are trying to outlaw abortion, some places are pushing to arrest people for miscarriages if suspected that they "did it on purpose." Which is ridiculous considering most times miscarriages are unavoidable. Some people's bodies for whatever reason, reject the zygote or embryo. Some folks who actually try to reproduce have this happen to them again and again. Not doing it on purpose. If anything it's a traumatizing ordeal to experience. I think attacking people like this is ridiculous. And some will even push conversion therapy on LGBTQ+ people so if they're "cured" they'll reproduce. They also talk down climate change so perhaps people won't worry about overpopulating the earth and the effects on the environment. I really think all of these things are being proposed in efforts to increase the birth rate. More babies born = more kids to grow up and join the military, either out of necessity or some twisted sense of patriotism. Population growth = more people to join the armed forces to fight their bullshit wars in the names of power, imperialism, and capitalism. Nevermind actually giving a shit about the kids' welfare growing up. More Babies = more people to participate in this illusion of freedom we call a country.


I just wish old fart right-wingers would just die off. I wish the younger fools who follow these ridiculous ideologies would just wake the fuck up already.
