Don't Have Kids! USA Today’s Climate Freakout: ‘War, Famine, Drought’
newsbusters.rog ^ | 3/30/2019 | Ryan Foley

Posted on 03/31/2019 7:29:07 AM PDT by rktman

Not long after spiking an op-ed because of its decision to use “not reliable” conservative sources, USA Today published a cover story Tuesday that came across as more of an op-ed than an actual news story. The story, titled “Climate change: war, famine, drought, make more women not want children,” asks the question “is the future simply too horrific to bring children into?”

The article, written by Elizabeth Weise, profiled a series of groups including US-based Conceivable Future and Europe-based #BirthStrike. These groups consist of women who have decided to forego having children because of their fears about climate change. Weise spoke to many women in the article who have decided to opt out of motherhood, regardless of whether or not they subscribed to a larger group or not.

Eventually, the article went into full-blown activism mode; with a subheading reading “Climate change poses a real danger.” This particular section of the story cites a United Nations report warning that mankind has 12 years to act to avoid “rapid, far-reaching, and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society,” which would include “more wildfires, more droughts, more floods, rising sea levels, and the loss of almost all coral reefs.”

The biggest danger to the whole world is the insatiable thirst for power from the left.

It’s a win-win. Liberals freak out and won’t breed. Conservatives say, Meh, and have children as normal.

I bet none of those women are Muslim? They’ll continue to have four or five kids while stupid white women commit racial and cultural suicide, and in a generation they’ll take over by default.

I’ll bet you can find many articles from Elizabeth arguing to bring fertile migrants into USA and Europe.

For a while, anyway.

Currently, we are keeping them alive in way higher numbers than they could ever maintain if left to their own devices.

Nonsense.

You should have kids.

Maybe one of them will find the solution to the problem.

First they tell you not to have children because Mother Earth.

Then they tell you that you must import hundreds of millions of third-world primitives because you aren’t having enough children.

See how that works?

They have no problem with cognitive dissonance. None of Algore’s dire predictions in An Inconvenient Truth came true, but they still think he’s right.

Correction Time!

Nonsense. You should have kids. Maybe one of them will prove that the problem doesn't exist.

My hope is that only liberals will listen to them...

As far as I can tell, the article only profiled white liberals; two women who didn't want kids in the first place, two lesbian couples (one of whom adopted), a woman who stopped after one child, and a 23-year old who doesn't know yet what she wants.

There's a lot of these articles coming out lately. Either it's stop having kids because of climate change, kids are too expensive, it's stressful raising kids, they all say the same thing; "WHITE PEOPLE! STOP HAVING CHILDREN!"

Notice none of these articles discouraging having babies profiles minorities.

That’s true; this is not a new concept. All that seems to have changed is that it is now directed at the most advanced cultures rather than the primitive ones initially targeted decades ago. Contrast this with the attempts in a few European countries to heavily subsidize parenting, just to get SOMEONE native to breed.
