WTF

Edit: I wasn’t sure what I was appalled by at first but now I realize it’s that this fucking medal just encourages women to be treated no better than a prized heifer.

    Ugh, we shouldn’t condemn something for being something Nazis did. Hitler liked dogs, doesn’t make it wrong.

    I don’t approve of natalism. Some natalists are driven by white-replacement cringe theory. Some are just inexplicably concerned about population decline. (I still don’t understand why.)

    Fuck this medal though. It’s going to help make people think women are only good for one thing.

      Offering a medal for baby making while erasing women’s achievements in science and leadership is definitely sending a message.

      population decline is incredibly problematic… demographic crises can literally lead to the collapse of a society in a slow enough manner that it’s kinda difficult for people to see coming unless they know what to look for

      i’d highly recommend the recent kurzgesagt video about south korea
