A little more than two weeks before I planned to meet the feminist theorist Sophie Lewis, her mother died. She had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in March, requiring Lewis to travel back and forth between her home in Philadelphia and a hospital in the UK—a journey she technically wasn’t allowed to make due to the pending status of her green card. When her mother passed away in late November, she did so thousands of miles away, while Lewis and her brother sang the Taylor Swift song “Safe and Sound” to her over Skype.
Earlier that month, at a lecture in Lower Manhattan hosted by the arts journal e-flux, Lewis, who is 31, reflected on what some might see as an obvious irony to her crisscrossing the ocean to care for her ailing mother: Verso Books had just published her first book, Full Surrogacy Now, a polemic that calls for abolishing the family.
And so we can also make them different, Lewis argues. She imagines a future where the labor of making new human beings is shared among all of us, “mother” no longer being a natural category, but instead something we can choose.
Even those of us who might call our family situations relatively “happy” should sign onto this project of demolishing their essential structure, Lewis says. Nuclear households create the infrastructure for capitalism, passing wealth and property down family trees, concentrating it in the hands of the few at the top of our class hierarchy. Maintaining the traditional family structure over time has also meant exploiting people of color and disowning queer children.

When you see the greatest collective in the history of civilization, the family, smile.
Their goal all along
Democrats are evil scum.
Every single one.
Bingo.....
All I can say is ...
Lord, bring Your justice down upon these evil people.
The left destroys everything it touches and has nothing to replace it other than their own evil machinations and lust.
I’m so effing sick of these people...

‘Bout sums it up.
Yes, the continued erosion and destruction of the family unit, gg. /s
This nincompoop needs to spend some time examining the foster care programs. Without family bonds, not many people do a good job of raising children.
Familial bonds go both ways. Children bond to the parents and parents bond to the children. All types of problems can arise where there are no bonds of love.

Same.
Guess they'll just call us gestation providers"
I suspect God is too.
Wow. So depressing, so evil. I don’t think I could bear to watch that.
When Hillary said “it takes a village” it wasn’t a throwaway line. It’s actually their plan.
Leftists are such mentally disturbed losers. They seek to destroy civil society because they trust that their lunacy, strangeness and perversity will be ignored in a disrupted, chaotic, schizophrenic society. I too am tired of the mentally ill not being treated in inpatient hospitals.
Democrats are evil scum.
Every single one.
bttt . . . it bears repeating
