I am curious if the majority of leftist people don't actually want children haha. There doesn't seem to be any studies about it, but my convos with leftists is that most don't seem to want to have children either for the uncertainty of the future or because they are too expensive or because it wouldn't give them too much time to organize or whatever other reason that I forgot about.

I personally lean on not having children because I have been laid off of several jobs and having someone financially dependent to me scares the shit out of me and would put my stress levels through the roof.

OK, buddy. You're wrong on like every point, but you go on believing whatever you want.

Masterfully refuted. Great engagements with all my points. Really convinced me to be a baby making machine.

I also did not make many assertions for you to agree with, I only stated what communists believe for most of it. I expect you to disagree with most things as you are a liberal. I just thought you don't seem to understand what communists actually think so I explained for you.

I'm not a liberal. Thanks.
