America’s premier pronatalists on having ‘tons of kids’ to save the world: ‘There are going to be countries of old people starving to death’ - eviltoast

The highlight for me is coming up with some weird pseudoscience justification for why it’s okay to hit your kids.

    I flat out write “childfree” on dating and social apps, so people think that gives them permission to attack. I’ve encountered a LOT of men with breeding kinks.

    I think the worst was after RvW got overturned, several of my other childfree friends got rape threats because then they’d be forced to carry their psychotic fan’s child. (I’m a professional cosplayer, so are the girls that got these messages)

      I’m watching all this US from a distance and it’s just fucking…bewildering and surreal to see it go as it does

      but I still remember that it happens to real people, and then to read things like this. fuck. that’s so fucking grim.

        I’ve seen so many girls posting that if aborting a rape baby will get you the death penalty, than you might as well take the rapist out while you’re at it. I’m so glad I’m sterilized.
