MODERATORS
aaaaand now we know nothing will be done.
(until doing work becomes worth it and doesn't take over your life and until the power is with the employees and bosses have to treat workers with respect, there will not be more children. governments do nothing to support people with families. paternity / maternity leave is a joke, childcare costs are astronomical, both parents have to work...it's bonkers that this is normalised and in some ways I'm glad birthrates are going down, as scaring our slave-drivers with potentially reduced profits is the only way anything will ever change and they can't do anything about it EXCEPT concede some freedom to the workers)
