Where do 2020 Democrats stand on misguided, immoral population control?

Voters deserve to know where 2020 Democratic candidates stand on the issue of population control. Defacto party leader Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., says it’s appropriate to question the morality of human reproduction. She said, due to climate change, “There’s scientific consensus that the lives of children are going to be very difficult. And it does lead, I think, young people to have a legitimate question, you know, is it okay to still have children?”

Her remarks have already inspired the “BirthStrike” movement in the United Kingdom, where some women are vowing to swear off having children to ensure that future offspring don’t contribute to carbon emissions.

This isn’t a new line of thinking from the Left. Before the outspoken congresswoman from the Bronx, many in the liberal movement have questioned the merits of human reproduction, arguing that population growth should be controlled. They almost always cite how human births hurt the environment. Feminist icon and Planned Parenthood pioneer Margaret Sanger pushed for population control of African-Americans. Billionaire Warren Buffett started donating to population control efforts in the early 1990s. Just six years ago far-left Princeton University professor Peter Singer declared that a woman’s right to reproduction may need to be abandoned in order to reduce population growth and, in turn, help the environment.

In recent months, we’ve watched the Democratic Party move exceedingly to the left especially when it comes to devaluing the dignity of human life. In states such as New York, Virginia, Vermont, and now Illinois, liberal politicians seem to be racing toward extremely aggressive abortion policies, many of which would allow mothers to end their child’s life even after giving birth. This drastic shift in the political spectrum makes it entirely appropriate for voters to wonder where the 2020 candidates currently stand on a woman’s right to...

If they are so convinced of this stupidity why don’t they just kill themselves to stop their own carbon footprint. Actually anyone this stupid to follow this blatant bull Sh*t
should exit themselves from the gene pool.

In states such as New York, Virginia, Vermont, and now Illinois, liberal politicians seem to be racing toward extremely aggressive abortion policies, many of which would allow mothers to end their child’s life even after giving birth.

While such a policy is of course an abomination, there is absolutely nothing wrong with choosing not to have children in the first place.

[virgil]

Abortion has been a kind of third rail that politicians don’t want to touch on campaign. Now they should shout from the rooftops what the viscous, brutal agenda is of the left.

[lurk]

Muslins will keep having children.

[butlerweave]

I bet it’s in AOC’s Green New Deal

[Westbrook]

Selecting themselves out of the gene pool?

Works for me.

I have 11 kids.

The "Climate Change" fraud is all about population control.

It's the left's excuse for not allowing energy development in the third world.

With energy they would have industry and independence and demand the benefit of their own natural resources.

And, heaven forbid, make good use of modern medicine, increase their life span, and GROW THEIR NUMBERS!!!

Fortunately many liberals are selfish twitsc who are too selfish to have children
Therefore they don’t reproduce
Furthermore they never really experienced life

Ah, the old "You don't want kids? How selfish of you!" attitude.

Therefore they don’t reproduce Furthermore they never really experienced life

One does not need to reproduce to "really" experience life.

Children aren't for everyone.

[Do the math]

I have 4 grand kids now, the youngest is only 1 month old. I spent about an hour holding him last Sunday. I was in papa heaven. Grand kids are GOD'S presents for raising your kids, and resting the urge to strangle them.

I had enough trouble raising my 3 kids, I think 11 would have killed me. GOD bless you, my hero.

[FlipWilson]

The democrats stand for one thing and one thing only. Totalitarianism.

[Nifster]

Was it ever off?

[HiTech RedNeck]

Not sure how the two issues became associated, though when the third world is busy producing people without any qualms about “global climate change,” it’s a foolish thing for the first world to supinely let itself be outpopulated.

[Westbrook]

LOL! Don’t make me a hero, yet, my FRiend.
;)

Still praying for a couple of them that went astray. Morphing the urge to strangle them into praying for them is hard work.

But the old saying, “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world,” is true. Put another way, demographics is destiny.

The anti-breeders, like AOC, are depending on the government indoctrination centers to do their dirty work with our kids. That’s why we homeschooled/Christian-schooled ours.

It’s essential not only that we outbreed them, but that we aggressively direct the education of our kids.

However, if they open the borders, the government indoctrination centers will be flooded with migrant fodder to be programmed as willing subjects for the global totalitarian collective that is the vision of the anointed elites.

We won’t have much of a chance against that.

Good on ya!
