Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

Same clowns who trash-talk minorities for having kids underage.

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 0 points 4 days ago

They envision an American Lebensborn program. I hate to tell Fox viewers, but it wouldn't be incels doing the deed.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

These are the same people who claim that kids shouldn't get sex ed in public school because they're too young and innocent to understand sex or safe sex. That abstinence-only is the best lesson.

doesn't provide free childcare

complains about lack of teenage pregnancies

Eat a fat dick fox promote free child care or stfu

Edit oh and free delivery for kids. As well as free medical care for kids. If that's too radical then eat a ghoneria soaked cock.

There are fewer pregnant 15yos? What a fucking nightmare!

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

To them? It is. Because young girls aged 13-17 are "the most fertile" or some remarkably gross ass shit.

[–] yuri@pawb.social 0 points 5 days ago

conservatives LOVE teen pregnancies.

[–] JennyLaFae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 5 days ago

People having kids too young contributes to both worker drones for the capitalist class and exploitable youth for the e-suite. Our current wave of transphobia was started with the intention of making trans people more exploitable.

[–] NathanRanch@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago

YSK: Birth control increases the birth rate when you exclude children getting pregnant.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Breaking news! The party for defending pedos is defending raping minors! Who could have seen that coming? More news at 10!

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

I wouldn't even go as far to defend raping minors (they totally 100% do), but they're also upset that young girls aren't getting pregnant at all, even through consensual sex with a male partner of their age group. All those damn liberal types are ~~educating~~ grooming our kids into "safe sex" and giving them "autonomy over their own decisions". More kids are growing up with more information about sex and that is resulting in a drop in youth pregnancies.

And that is what is upsetting them.

“Birth rate by age group, 1000 females”

Why don’t they include 1000 males?

[–] CarstenBoll@feddit.dk 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It's very hard to tell if a teenage boy is pregnant, you have to get real close and it often scares them.

[–] Aneb@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

To add to the vocab lesson. Fox News will write "Females" then right next to it have "Men". They are not the same. Calling a woman a female is so condescending.

What do you think abstinence means, Barbra?

These people are beyond parody

When I was in high school over 20 years ago they made us read The Handmaids Tale. I laughed thinking that book was so extreme and pessimistic. I'm not laughing anymore.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 5 days ago

I read that book after graduating high school in the deep south a decade-ish before you did, and it was so validating to me see that someone else also saw how dangerous Christofascists are. I doubt our school library would have been allowed to carry it, much less assign it as reading.

Note that 30-34 and 35-39 groups are up. So maybe people just can't afford to have kids.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Yeah, but this isn't about people having kids. It's about kids having kids.

Grown adults who can make conscious choices in life, tend to be more balanced in life decisions every day, are not the ones they care about having kids. Those adults have agency, and can make informed and consensual decisions to have children, and can weigh their current life situation, financial situations, etc.

They want kids to have kids, so they are forced at a young age to drop out of school and get working to raise your kids. Oh, you wanted to grow up, experience life, and go to one of those liberal indoctrination buildings they call "post-secondary education"? Fuck you and flip my burger for $7 an hour, you have a child to feed.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Well yeah, but they also have the agency to prevent themselves from having kids they can't afford, and that's just flat-out unacceptable to conservatives.

Capitalism demands... rolls dice... teen pregnancy?

[–] boonhet@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Not just capitalism, same with communism and any other economic system. You want to have more young people than old people because old people don't work. Of course it doesn't have to be teen pregnancy, but people need to be having kids.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 0 points 5 days ago

capitalism demands teen pregnancy

not just capitalism, same with ... any other economic system

Of course it doesn't have to be teen pregnancy

So they demand teen pregnancy but it doesn't have to be teen pregnancy

[–] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

This feels like a cards against humanity play.

Capitalism demands... 50,000 volts straight to the nipples.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

Three card hand.

Capitalism Demands

Barefoot and Pregnant

Praise Hitler.

Desperate slaves are cheaper.

[–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Well, pregnancy in general. It's based on "continued growth." It cannibalizes itself in any other conditions, well, in general.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

Capitalism eventually cannibalizes itself as well but they seem to be perfectly fine with the state of the world.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 5 days ago (3 children)

Preventing teen pregnancy used to be considered a goal.

[–] theparadox@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago

I don't know if "preventing teen pregnancy" was truly the goal. Controlling women and their sexuality was more the goal. The real problem was their daughter getting pregnant by someone not of the parents' choosing.

[–] homik@slrpnk.net 0 points 5 days ago

It is a goal if you're not a fascist.

[–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago

Well, you know, they defend pedos so CSAM is their goal.

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Or, OR, hear me out, people are having to wait longer to be financially stable enough to bring a child into this world care care for them with the proper resources. Either that, or people just don't want to bring children into this world. Nah, couldn't be those reasons.

[–] echolalia@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Right?? 20 should be the optimal time to have kids. We should reorder society around that.

I know someone who is 40 and their mom is 80. Its not ideal!! Actually it sucks!!

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 0 points 5 days ago

I don't know why the downvotes. Mid 20 for men and women is the best time to have healthy children and be active, good parents.

It's when people would naturally have kids if capitalists held up the social contract and a single income with a degree or after 5-10 years experience was enough to buy a house and start a family.

[–] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca 0 points 5 days ago

I think lack of teen pregnancy probably is a problem for the republican party.

[–] Z745812939054@lemmy.zip 0 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

of course it's a problem, when you see ~~women~~ females as property whose function is to make sammiches and be perpetually pregnant with their head of household's future manly maga men sons

Don't tell them that some men can get pregnant. Their head might explo.....

Tell them some men can get pregnant.

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 days ago

some men can get pregnant.

I guess I have to try harder.
