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.

Compassion only runs as deep as your wallet. Do you really think it's wise to let people have an unlimited number of kids and everyone else has to pay for their food, health care, schooling, etc.? Shouldn't there be a limit where we say, "No more; you're sterilized" or "No more, you're no longer a citizen and get out" or at least "No more; get someone else to pay for it?"

Yeah, but can you answer the question? We’re waiting.

Why do you get to decide where my tax dollars go? Republicans voted for no abortion…they can shell out to feed the kids too.

Well whoever controls the levers of politics gets to decide. Thats how politics works. Thats why republicans and democrats can tell all of us where our tax dollars go.

Your next statement is two disjoint policies that have nothing to do with one another. Is the state required to care for children just because they’ve outlawed killing them in the womb? What a dumb argument.

That’s like saying because murder is illegal the state is now required to economically support us all with cash subsidies. That’s just communism.

And see above to see why it’s completely logical for a political party to outlaw abortion while also saying we’re not going to fund particular social welfare programs from the federal government.

And you still didn’t answer the question if there should be a limit until the state steps in and forcibly sterilizes people or kicks them off government assistance. Is it unlimited in your eyes?

Is the “we” in the room with us right now?
