Have ya'll ever met eugenicists and racists? those are some of the most natalist motherfuckers out there. You think all the mystic woo woo "having children is like +1 good" bullshit you want, THOSE PEOPLE THINK THAT HARDER THAN YOU DO!!!

This rant is sponsored by yesterday's grandma demanding in the form of a question when I'm going to shit out babies for her and also random strawman comments in an obscure subreddit.

Edit: ITT: people actually starting to bully me for not wanting to have kids. Did not expect this on "leftist" website.

        Damn I don’t know why these people who only exist because someone had a baby might be in favor of people having babies when it’s presented as a philosophical question. They must be insanely racist.

          Actually, I am a "white passing" individual, so their demands that I have children might be influenced by qanon-style concerns about race demographic chnages in the US, which would in fact be a form of racism that is insane.

          It's not a philosophical context, it's random inlaws bullying me at thanksgiving.

            In laws arent random. They’re like the opposite of random. They just want you to have kids so they can blow their retirement fund on Lego sets for em. The older they are the more dire it feels for em because each year, month, week or day could be their last and they wanna pet that baby, can they pet that baAaBbY?

            Should they be pushing their ideas about what you ought to do on you? Idk. At a certain point in the function that’s all there is to talk about.

            “My family wants me to have kids, they might be racist” is a wild take.

              I already know they're racist, this about them pressing me into having kids I don't want.

            family pressure to have kids you don't can be invasive. relatives pressuring you to have kids is almost certainly because they want more children in the family
