    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.

        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.

                  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.

    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.

    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.

    Birth rates are declining across the globe, across cultures, and generations.

    No propaganda could be created to execute that initiative.

    This is a byproduct of the system.
