What even is the endgame here though?
So I get conservatives want many babies but without providing any care or (especially) pay, perfectly fuels their pockets this way. But how does this work to their advantage? You just get more abuse this way. How the fuck does that help in their baby factoring scheme?
Broken homes feed into the prison-industrial complex, the only remaining form of slavery currently allowed in our country? It's not just about the babies. You need to make sure they end up poor, desperate, and too broken to hope for better as adults.
It's easier to manipulate uneducated people into voting against their interests as well, so they want them poor and uneducated
the endgame is when they start saying "well I didn't think they were gonna do that" and acting all innocent as their fascist rhetoric turns the country into a fascist hellhole thanks to their violent dipshittery
Control. Power. Compelled obedience.
Seriously? The endgame is clear. Reduce access to education, force people to have kids that will be born in that environment and raise an ignorant neglected bigoted class that is easily controlled and manipulated.
Biblical law.
Suffering. Suffering is the endgame. They get off by causing those they feel are lesser to suffer as much as they can.
Never assume that there's an endgame. Some people just like watching others suffer.
Life is a journey, not a destination. <3
