Absolutely. Which is exactly the reason they want to take it away from you.
You still are a wage slave paying rent to a landed lord.
Better than committing another soul to the same fate.
Republicans:
Ban it
The folk wanting to restrict it probably don’t want to respect autonomy too much.
Pro-lifers don’t care.
All they care about is the fact that the white population will decrease as no one can afford/wants children, so the best way to remedy that is to force them to.
I was confused at first, what you meant by professional-lifer
How else would one mass-produce gullible, uneducated voting cattle to exploit and fleece?
They know, that’s the point.
Birth control is nothing more than a form of medical technology. People against birth control and abortion(also medical technology) are Medical Luddites.
They must be afraid of losing their jobs at crisis pregnancy centers, or be afraid they won’t be allowed to shame young single mothers anymore.
Either they are afraid of losing jobs, or afraid of not having hot single moms in their area. Make a pick
Not so funny.
this mf spittin!
might be preaching to the choir a little bit
And mutually beneficially so does UBI et al
How is this a meme?
Ikr? Lemmy is 99% stuff like this, when really all i want to do on here is laugh
Yes. It gets tiring. There aren’t even breaks in between “zomg! Look what trump and friends are doing! We are so much better” memes over and over and over and over.
A meme (/miːm/ ⓘ; MEEM) is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme. A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices, that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures. In popular language, a meme may refer to an Internet meme, typically an image, that is remixed, copied, and circulated in a shared cultural experience online.
It’s not and such content should be banned from memes. But Lemmy has nearly no moderation on validity of content. Tbh, I like Reddit a lot better in many ways except for the asshole admins. It has problems, but still lot better controlled than here.
Which is why republicans and conservatives want it gone: they want you to have children.
New meat MUST be bred to feed the machine of infinite growth.
They want having children to be a woman’s punishment for unapproved sex, and they want the kid (who had zero responsibility for creating that situation) to suffer through it along with her, with zero help so it’s all as unpleasant as possible, cuz apparently that makes Baby Jesus smile. Fucking lunatics.
At its core it’s about population control. As the birth rate is falling capitalism needs bodies to keep the cogs turning.
To a certain extent, but capitalism always adjusts to changes in birth rates. Reducing payroll has been a trend since the 80s, accelerating with computers, robotics, and now AI.
They want you to have children, and they want you to do it before you’re ready. They want you to be barely surviving so you can’t afford to switch jobs or take time off. They want you too powerless to have any leverage over your
owneremployer.

The worst part is draconic abortion bans also hurt those trying to have children. No one’s getting recreational third trimester abortions. You picked out a name, painted the nursery. Late term abortions are tragedies to all parties, and only ever happen because of life threatening conditions.
I wouldn’t want to plan a child when any complication could mean death.
