Probably the free birth control supplied by Monsanto and DuPont chemicals.

Can’t say I blame the teenagers.

Now that many states are mandating birth, I fear that this trend won’t last.

And that’s depressing as fuck…

Good, at least education/programs having some effect. But we should be doing better.

American conservatives, of course, will see this as a bad thing. Especially regarding white births.

Yup, you can be sure they’re doing everything they can to reverse this statistic.

i also wonder how much of this particular drop might be due to the pandemic. isolating teens from each other must have had some effect…

The fascists will use this as “proof” of the epidemic of abortions. After all, facts don’t really matter to them.

Make the future bleak enough with all the fascism and forced birth and you will have everyone think twice about doing anything. As the birth rate going, eugenics will make a comeback under various forms (forced insemination, racial cleansing, etc), sponsored by the fundy and carry out by the fascists. They need a new generation of slaves to indoctrinate to keep their pyramid scheme going.

13 babbies per kiloteen?! That’s, like, seven births per high school per year.

Clearly the solution is to pressure them until they drop out.

What do you mean Goodhart’s law?
