    Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren’t they? They’re all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you’re born, you’re on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don’t want to know about you. They don’t want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re preborn, you’re fine; if you’re preschool, you’re fucked. - George Carlin

      Every once in a while - the New York Times interviews Trump voters that the newspaper has been keeping tabs on. For me it’s horror comedy. Here’s a post of mine from a couple weeks ago - Happy :). But also sad :(. When the interviewees say they are “in favor of some of what Trump’s doing” - the reader usually doesn’t know exactly what they mean. The Times doesn’t ask follow up questions. And the interviewees are treated like lab rats who must be free of outside contamination. The newspaper never asks them directly about what new horrors the Trump administration is committing. And the Times should.

      I really want to know how the idiots feel about the Trump administration being pro infant death. I really want to know the “other side” of this issue!

    Some leftists are slandered by this, but once again fascists are the real “malthusian degrowthers”.

    They’d rather have a tiny economy with an even smaller population because it would be more convenient for the elites. I fail to see this callous disregard of life as anything but malthusianism.
