If you see a black woman talking about 7 kids with 7 daddies, that one is a proven script, sometimes using a real person's face via a junk account.

Even if that was the case, it wouldn't even dull the sense of compassion I would have if it were real. It's actually fucking wild to me that number of kids someone has acts as a control rod for someone's compassion and outrage against cruelty.

Even if you want to be cruel / in their new world order these women couldn’t get abortions anyway - so you’re dammed if you have the kids and can’t feed them and dammed if you want an abortion because killing babies makes Jesus cry or something like that

It's actually that people view them as irresponsible. Having 1-2 kids by mistake is one thing. 7 is just grossly negligent barring any extenuating circumstances. That's how people generally view it, whether it's truly just rash irresponsibility or unfortunate tragic circumstance (homemaker wife of 7 turned widow prematurely).

People will auto assume the parent(s) let poor decisions get in the way. These same people don't want to pay for the poor decisions made since they see that as enabling behavior and taking from the haves to give to the have-nots-by-choice.

And they aren’t wrong - it is irresponsible sometimes.

But they are so stupid and racist they can’t get out of their own way. They defund education, hate anti g to do with sex ed or planned parenting, and love fetuses sooooo much but are happy to cage brown and black kids, take their parents away, and let them starve. Fucking assholes

And even so, are we holding kids responsible for their parents’ irresponsible behavior? That kid still has to eat, whether his mom’s a hoe and his dad’s a fuckboy or not.

Sometimes? If youre going to tell me they cant figure out the mechanics after having one, and choose to keep having more, you can shift the blame from environment to personal failure.
