    Wait a minute… deep in there he suggested incentivizing smart people to have babies. Like a handout? Susidized childcare, free healthcare for kids? He must be a socialist. Lol.

      Also, improving sex education and access to contraceptives would almost certainly reduce the number of poor Black (which I’m about 100.2% certain is what he means by “low IQ”) children being born, but I doubt he’s in favour of that either…

        That always did strike me odd that they are against such things. But I guess the greedy ones who want more poor people to exploit win out over the eugenics people onthat one.

      It’s probably more like Robin Hood: take from the brown, give to the white.

    Well. Yeah. Because he’s a Nazi. Nazis have Nazi opinions. But his version of “low-iq trash” isn’t people with “low-iq” it’s people that impede the image of the in-group.

    Otherwise the majority of conservatives would be sterilized.

    The irony. I bet most MAGA have sub-median IQ. But apart from that:

    That stance of mass-sterilization is quite a hefty turnaround from “people should have more children”, which we heard just a few months ago.

    I don’t want to be a doomer, but the economic prospects are bad. Lots of people already struggle to make end’s meet, and if the mass layoffs of white collar workers due to AI are real, it will be even worse. Notice that it doesn’t matter whether you think that AI can replace people, it only matters whether companies think that AI can replace people. Now, having children costs a lot of money, at least $100K, depending on where you live, and i understand people being reluctant about having children.

    I also think that it’s politician’s job to improve the living conditions of the people, and GOP might actually for once be doing its job if it starts educating people about the socio-economic implications of having kids.

    I also advocate for UBI (universal basic income), but the way i see it today, there’s a high likelyhood that it will come, but will be too little to actually cover cost-of-living costs. I.e., it might be a “support”, providing $400/month no-strings-attached and it would definitely improve the living conditions of many people, especially in low-income households. But it would still not solve all problems.

    So they stop funding education and now they can want to sterilise low IQ individuals. Seems like a well thought out strategy
