stop fucking having children you can’t afford, god fucking dammit. there is no way two adults can’t survive off $100k anywhere in this country.
Economically mediated de facto sterilization is an extremely dystopian thing to just accept. I think it's pretty justified to be more or less outraged in this case.
Definitely better to be egalitarian climate motivated

China's single child policy wants your location.

No. Stop having children. Even if you can afford it, the other species can't afford having more humans.
