These youtubers make an interesting point.
Whenever they suggest or champion ideas that might convince people to have babies, they're accused of wanting a 'Handmaid's Tale' future.
They counter by pointing out that that dystopian future is inevitable if we don't turn this ship around.
There's zero chance the last 100 fertile women in a city are deciding for themselves how many children they have and by whom.
It's like warning about something bad is seen as encouraging it. As if the person at the beach yelling "Shark" is inviting sharks.
I've been watching this Victorian highlands manhunt for Dezi Freeman after he shot a couple of cops who came to arrest him and took off into the mountains; and the online discourse around it.
Myself and many like me have been trying to warn people for years, since before the covid silliness, that the country is on a dark path toward civil war.
That the police need to change how they act and be once again seen by the public as a part of society, not as a part of government.
Then we get told we're encouraging this behaviour, supporting him, championing his cause (whatever that is, I've never met the guy).
I'm yelling 'Shark' so you'll get out of the water because I don't want bloodshed.
I'm not cheering for sharks.
