I am curious if the majority of leftist people don’t actually want children haha. There doesn’t seem to be any studies about it, but my convos with leftists is that most don’t seem to want to have children either for the uncertainty of the future or because they are too expensive or because it wouldn’t give them too much time to organize or whatever other reason that I forgot about.
I personally lean on not having children because I have been laid off of several jobs and having someone financially dependent to me scares the shit out of me and would put my stress levels through the roof.
Replacement theory based on politcal views? That’s a hot take.
No, I just want children in general. But I don’t get why people say they don’t want children because the world is shit. Have kids and teach them to be better. The world can be improved.
