Recognizes that people are working hard to make money but still not having children, blames it on everything except capitalism. Woke, 14 words, etc…

Surprisingly critical for an article out of Politico
These people are disgusting and dangerous. Probably a good thing it was only around a 100 people.
Also no surprise here:
NatalCon’s emphasis on childbirth notwithstanding, there are very few women in the cavernous conference room of the LINE Hotel. The mostly male audience. . .
Edit to add: oh gods. That poor child.
(Simone was pregnant with the fourth child during the conference. That baby, Industry Americus Collins, was born in April.)
They beard things with supposed concern about Social Security and Medicare (which in reality they’d love to eliminate), but never acknowledge the straightforward path to saving those programmes, which is more and better paths to immigration.
So as usual with conservatives, the real motivating factors are a mix of racism and sexism.
The real problems with social security include removing the tax cap and that people can’t live on it.
Cross-posting:
Reminds me of the recent efforts to make Buckhead its own city - it was incorporated into ATL in the 50s, because of white fears of a Black “take over” demographically, and now they want back out.
It’s not fully clear from that article, but the fight from St. George is mostly over anger that some of their tax dollars go to educate black children and that some of their children share a school with Black kids and might not grow up to be as racist as their parents. They tried some previous bullshit to separate from BR public schools and failed so they just declared they’re their own city. Fuck those selfish, racist pricks
Have they considered substituting the skulls of ancient Tories, starting with the ones in the House of Lords?
Do you want liches? Because that’s how you get liches!
You do know that might just be revealing them for what they are, right?
Is that a thing? I’ve never heard that as a thing, but i am old, so maybe? One of you youngins gonna have to larn me.

Black voters won a big victory in Louisiana. Some White voters said it violated their ‘personal dignity’
In the current phase of the dispute, a three-judge trial judge panel sided with a group of 12 self-described “non-African American” voters who alleged that their “personal dignity” had been injured because the new map with two Black-majority districts “racially stigmatizes,” “racially stereotypes” and “racially maligns” them.
