Holy fucking fuck I almost ended two friendships over this last night. Some bullshit techbro cost analysis to determine if it was happening or not.
The biggest thing, and i'm going to put it in caps because i've been wanting to scream all day,
THEY CAN PROVIDE PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY FOR HYSTERECTOMIES AS A MEDICAL NECESSITY WHILE THEY CANNOT DO THE SAME FOR A SIMPLE STERILIZATION THAT LEAVES THE PIECES INTACT.
I don't understand these liberals who are like "but it costs more than the other thing", anyone thats been around contracting knows that that doesn't mean shit. The gov will take inefficient routes in order to check boxes. Theres a reason why the military budget is so fucking huge. Market efficiencies are BS when they could hire direct and spend half as much vs contracting costs which the individual often earns more + the actual bill rate charged by the company is often 2x or more the size due to that tasty surplus labor.
Can't believe facists commiting genocide and forcing medical procedures on women without their consent for a eugenics program are also sexist!
This DOES qualify as genocide, right? Cant wait to hear "uhh that's whataboutism and a straw man to bring that up" any time I tell reddit libs to handle their own problems before they go all sinophobic
There's no firm definition of genocide, but by any sort of meaningful definition targeted, forced sterilization would count.
Just make sure to hate them in the most cost-effective manner.
Maybe they did hysterectomies because vasectomies can be reversed.
Also women participate more in child-rearing on average, which means they're more likely to pass on language and culture to the next generation. So bonus cultural genocide points!
"Akchually, to reduce a population of k-strategist mammals is more efficient to castrate the females, as reviewed by McPaperklippen et al 1947. Also if the undesired population is allowed to mix with the other groups, the females pass more genes than males due to mitochondrias and X cromosomes"
After reading your post I googled "k-strategist", because I didn't remember which one was K and which one was r and this is one of the first images I stumbled upon.
The first time I heard about that applies to politics I heard it applied the other way around, lol.
i always feel like there's a tinge of the same effect that happens to cults when a prophecy doesn't come true to tweets like that. you have all these people who have built themselves around the idea that their votes and consumption are going to prevent things like the ICE camps from happening or at the very least they hold the idea that because of their identity the camps would mean an end to them.
then when all the handmaids tale type stuff happens, it happens mostly to people in the global south and the prisoners, homeless and poverty stricken in the north. the people who are basically completely absent from any of the discussion, viewership, or making of shows like that. those people get exiled by both the original structure and the one that was supposed to reform it. having to ask "why does evil spare me and not her?" "why does evil consider me a part of its function worth satisfying?" ends up being too much and people try to resolve the tension by reaffirming the original prophecy, ie "sure the concentration camp guards are bad, but look at the inefficiency their sexism generates!"
it's a refocus on the sliver of evil that might actually reach the speaker, the one that would reinforce their idea of the world's hierarchy.
