if people weren't aware, raising children is used as a political strategy of fascism historically and presently. look up the "quiver full movement"

whereas on the left there are tons of people that refuse to have children, maybe because it's a hell world especially for intentionally marginalized folks (who are of course disproportionately leftists). or maybe they are associating overconsumption and overpopulation propaganda with their individual choices. or maybe they hate the institution of marriage and family and it's state construction too much. idk

but then, there are literally people who hate children?? and they're moreso on the left. okay good luck with hating a defenseless and innocent little being i'm sure that'll bring more unity to our struggle

point is, the right has a concerted strategy on social reproduction. the left does not, and even sabotages it. the working class is alienated from their own determination of social reproduction. this is a key material concern that has divided along class lines through raw numbers.

I feel as leftists we need to be much more accommodating to familial struggle. I don't feel stable to have family either, so to me helping create power to benefit working families is a crucial tactic, regardless if I ever have one myself. we need to be in control of our social reproduction because it's literally an act of survival, and the people who want to end us know that as well.

i don't see any labels for NPR, BBC, CBC, or RT. maybe all the "state-affiliated media" tags were removed?

edit: nevermind looks like Xinhua has it

i mean mckinley jackson his grandson ben harrison, monroe, and teddy all got years to do that at the highest command position of the us colonial state

i meant hes best as a us president bc he achieved nothing as a president. if we were talking about US governors, WH Harrison would definitely be one of the worst

really hard to say who's worse. but prob the best president was WH Harrison because he died a month into office

why do you (or others here) think this? did it encourage some sort of ethno-nationalism? i wonder how is this different from self-determination? what's to learn from this when we look at contemporary self-determination through decolonization?
