My suggestion since early 2024 has been to birthstrike: no more births in the U.S. and other complicit western nations until the children of Gaza are safe and Israel has been held accountable for their heinous acts.
This is especially relevant because younger people are the ones who are: most angry about this, the most politically disenfranchised, most applicable to a birthstrike due to biology.
People shit on me and my 100% legal, non-violent / non-destructive recommendation. To the point where I've had posts and comments removed and even faced bans. So I've simply stopped recommending it.
that would easily devolve into eugenics. that's most likely why people weren't comfortable with it
Eugenics is something that is imposed, not self-selected.
I don't generally see the "quiverfull" people, or governments all over the world encouraging their people to have more kids (including financial incentives), getting labeled as eugenics.
imposed vs self-selected is a false dichotomy. if you ask a random tradwife whether she chose her lifestyle she'll emphatically reply yes. had she not been raised in a patriarchal cult, most likely not.
you're not following the right people if you don't see it. creating a white ethno state by turning women into incubators is textbook eugenics. so is antinatalism because it promotes toxic individualism and blames societal problems on individual choices.
Maybe so, but that's not what I'm talking about here. A labor strike isn't a call for people to become permanent NEETs. It has a set of conditions for an endpoint.
the US can't even do a general strike, you're telling me you'll convince hundreds of millions not to fuck? yeah, right
