Speakers predict dystopian future, call for dismantling capitalism

PHOENIX — Two professors discussed dismantling capitalism and electing a female president to restore reproductive rights, and warned of a dystopian future with “cannibalism” and “forced breeding camps,” at an event held Wednesday at Arizona State University.

“Jenny Irish’s HATCH: A Speculative Future for Reproductive Rights” was held both in person and via Zoom.

It featured Irish, a poet and English professor at ASU, as well as Professor Angela Lober, director of the Academy of Lactation Programs at ASU’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation.

Professor Lober opened the one-hour moderated discussion by stating she “got into this space because the United States hates women and everything the female body does.”

She said she is concerned about the state of maternal healthcare in the country, citing the existence of “maternity care deserts” and the lack of comprehensive care for mothers and children.

Economic interests often override health concerns, as evidenced by the lack of financial incentives in breastfeeding and maternal-child health, Lober said.

Irish, when asked about her concerns for the future of abortion laws, said she fears the possibility of “forced breeding camps” and “cannibalism” driven by a lack of resources.

“So much of our reality points toward those futures,” Irish said.

Lober added: “The balance between hope and despair is an everyday experience for me.”

“A couple years ago I never thought Roe v. Wade would be overturned. How could we possibly do that?” Lober said.

Asked what they would do to restore reproductive rights, Lober said “dismantle capitalism” and “elect a female president.”

Irish said any time Americans have an “external entity” asserting control over women’s bodies, they should all be “terrified.” She said the country should consider how “forcing women into motherhood” affects the broader community.

Irish also talked about transgenderism and said there is an “all-out assault on the trans community and people’s ability to self-identify.”

“It is disgusting, immoral, and wrong,” she said.

The scholars also took questions from the 15 or so students in the audience as well as over Zoom. When asked about the decline in birth rates globally, Lober said it doesn’t “bother” her, as “we are overpopulated.”

She also said she encourages her children not to have children of their own.

Karina Fitzgerald, the event coordinator, said the goal of the event was “to encourage students that are following creative pursuits or other types of worldbuilding to simply explore other elements that they haven’t thought of before in their writing, or other ways to challenge themselves in creative processes.”

“It’s an element of worldbuilding that people might not think of a lot when they are creating fictional stories,” Fitzgerald told The College Fix in an interview. “It’s a good exercise for students to get in the practice of.”

The event was co-hosted by ASU Lincoln Center for Applied Ethics, which hosts events that aim to design “a future keyed to human flourishing,” according to its website.

The event description states the “prose poems in Jenny Irish’s newest collection, Hatch, trace the consciousness of an artificial womb that must confront the role she has played in the continuation of the dying of the human species.”

“This apocalyptic vision engages with the most pressing concerns of this contemporary sociopolitical moment: reproductive rights, climate crises, and mass extinction; gender and racial bias in healthcare and technology; disinformation, conspiracy theories, and pseudoscience; and the possibilities and dangers of artificial intelligence.”

“A couple years ago I never thought Roe v. Wade would be overturned. How could we possibly do that?” Lober said.

Well, actually, you can STILL kill all the babies you want - you may just have to travel if your STATE doesn’t allow it. Which is where this matter should’ve been settled in the FIRST place.

But, don’t confuse your students with FACTS, K? *SMIRK*

Exactly. It sounds like The Handmaiden’s Tale.

Maybe it was never intended this way but at this point I'm pretty sure "The Handmaid's Tale" is nothing more than libtard fan fiction and that the women who spend so much time cosplaying as handmaidens at protests secretly fantasize about being forced to procreate with some alpha chad after their beta cuck soyboy boyfriends have been eliminated.

Anyhow, I've come to really enjoy the show! The trick is, you have to regard the Republic of Gilead as the good guys, --sensible men forced by circumstance to fix the country after it was destroyed by woke libtards.

These “ladies” are radically anti-children and pro the killing of babies. It’s beyond parody that they accuse their opponents of being anti-women.

Conceiving and bearing children is the ONLY thing women can do that men can’t. This capacity is precisely what defines “woman” as a category.

The position taken by these gals amounts to the erasure of women as a distinct type. It is impossible to be more anti-woman than that.

But of course, if they didn’t project, they wouldn’t be leftists.

Forced breeding camps?

Has she been taking LSD? Peyote? Crystal Meth?

[realcleanguy]

You may be correct.

[realcleanguy]

Well, here is the good news. When they die alone in their homes their cats will feed on their decomposing bodies.

[Billthedrill]

Huh. Forced breeding camps. Not sure how that would work, actually, but it might be the only way a feller my age could get laid. I’d have to brush up on the basics, though. Flowers and kissing are involved, aren’t they?

[nickcarraway]

This is what they call projection.

"Irish, when asked about her concerns for the future of abortion laws, said she fears the possibility of 'forced breeding camps' and 'cannibalism' driven by a lack of resources."

I think the author has substituted the word "concerns" for the word "plans" above.

[Secret Agent Man]

Omg yes , they are so correct its scary.

I can’t wait for the forced breeding camps. /super sarc

[Secret Agent Man]

Actually let em. They strut around saying women are better than men, don’t need no man, they do everything better than men. They need a few smacks to the head to get straightened out on this.

I’d have to brush up on the basics, though. Flowers and kissing are involved, aren’t they?

If you really want to sweep the lady off her feet offer to fix that annoying flicker in that one wall socket.

"Breeding camps?"

This is an ongoing sexual fantasy among uber libbers. They want children. They want marriage and children. However in their circle of friends, that is totally "uncool".

So their psyche dreams up these scenarios where that choice is out of their control. They are forced into "breeding camps". A breeding "husband" is assigned to you. You are impregnated and give birth. It fullfills their yearning without the need for betraying their social circle. It was "forced" upon them.

A major example of this is the popular "Handmaidens" thing.

[null and void]

Irish sounds like she needs an Australian kiss.

[2CAVTrooper]

I wouldn’t be surprised if either one of these have ties to antifa.

[Dilbert San Diego]

LOL.

Reminds me, that Chasten changed his last name to Buttigieg. Apparently that means Pete is the man in the relationship?

[Thistledew]

ASU was my Alma Mater. Very disappointed, needless to say. Dismantling Capitalism is analogous to dismantling reality. It just will never happen, unless insanity replaces meritocracy in this world.

[Drew68]

This is an ongoing sexual fantasy among uber libbers.

You said it better than I did in my post #62.

But yes, nailed it.

[madison10]

Must be projection ‘cause no one else thinks of this crap.

[Bikkuri]

I had to check the article because it mentioned ASU..
I went to ASU, but it is in Texas (and it isn’t Austin!), lol.
