Don't worry, Republicans will solve this by banning abortion and birth control nationwide!

They are always thinking of the children.

And legalizing marriage to minors. And outlawing comprehensive sexual education.

A few Republicans also rape and traffic minors just to show how dedicated they are to countering the declining birth rate!

Pizzagate was projection.

I think the 20-24 line is hinting at a bad economy.

35-39 maybe just barely made the cut before the start of the collapse. But generally i expect all of them to trend down in the long run

You just can't hear that hint over the hint of the constant torment of the growing lower class

Not to call out OP, but does anyone have this information in anything other than .png format? There's no timestamps, hyperlinks, or citations anywhere here. I'd love to send this to other people, but I'm not about to copy-pasta something that could be old or inaccurate.

Not the exact image posted, but this appears to be the source

It was never about stopping abortion. It’s about keeping people in poverty and creating a cycle of uneducated voters that either don’t vote or vote Republican because they don’t know better

please stop having babies ffs

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 39 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I think it's fine to have kids if you want them but the government trying to get people to have more kids for economic reasons is sickening

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 0 points 14 hours ago

Agreed, but I don't think it's fine either way. I'm an antinatalist and there is no such thing as an unselfish reason to have a baby.

let kids be kids. when you force kids to be parents, you are stealing their childhood. all you have to do is explain "sex" in bits and pieces, when it's appropriate, and eventually they're ready for the anatomy explanations and maybe you can help soften the trauma of puberty.
