Important reminder: No one "owes" anyone children. You don't owe your parents, you don't owe your grandparents, you don't owe your deacon, nor your cult leader, and sure as shit not your country.

This is the fucking truth. It is also a very easy solution, most people want children, it is baked into our genes. It is just when the countries of the world have made the rules like they are now. That encourages ans premieres the hoarding of wealth into the hands of very VERY few. At the expence of exploiting everyone else and the planet. It makes human civilization a dystopia not worth saving, and not wanting to put children thru this meat grinder, in order to enrich some asshole, is very normal and compassionate.
Make rules that are fair, and protects the planet. at the expence of some billionares having to be millioneres. And I bet most people would love to have children.
to put children thru this meat grinder
oh yes
What if civilizations deciding to be child-free ended up being the Great Filter.
Not my problem.
No amount of weaseling, manipulation, what-ifs, or post-hoc rationalizations change the fact that someone else's decision whether or not to reproduce is not yours.
You don't say? Wow
I give up, what then?
What do you mean? It would be crazy.
That's ableist.
Good to know. What word would you use instead?
Appreciate your time.
...what?
"Crazy"
Yes, it would be crazy if civilizations always fell due to collapsing because the people, like myself, deciding it's not worth producing children into this hell-world.
Is that so? Here's your 400k rubles ticket then
If you want to increase your country’s birth rate, give people hope that their children won’t be trapped in a dystopian nightmare. Banning so-called “childfree propaganda” won’t matter.
Not invading countries also helps.
Need to keep feeding bodies to that war machine.
What exactly is Childless propaganda... The more vague a law is the more bullshit it is. It's like the stop woke act. Doesn't define what woke even means so they can make anything a crime. Both of these laws are scaringly similar.
It's Russia. They are accustomed to creating and following vague laws that are in effect also authoritarian and arbitrary. Many Soviet laws were the same.
Showing people with free time and money
I can see why Republicans love that place.
Inb4 not having children is considerd a 'propaganda promoting childfree lifestyle'.
Any man walking around without a vasectomy is a fool.
Russia being параша again
Finally
Trump supporting troll account, you're an easy block.
No, I just shitpost.
But if my words have any influence, please jail mr. Trump
No, they want more meat mate.
No, they do not understand what they're doing at this moment
Now you can get laid.
