Once they realize that "having kids" does not mean you're white, and, in fact, correlates with being black or brown, he'll stop having his "thought experiment."

White people are having less kids than any other racial demographic in the United States.

Me-Well I have three sons so me and wife get 3 extra votes to vote for Harris making it a total of 5 in my house hold?

JD Vance (couch fucker)- Not like that.

This guy fucking dumber than bag of nails.

Don't worry. I'm sure phase two will involve the Originalist SCOTUS ruling that only literal landowners actually get a vote so all those people of color who rent in urban areas won't get to vote no matter how many kids they have.

And then phase three: you get three extra votes for every five slaves you own.

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Was that phase three? I thought phase three was when they rule that employers get the votes of any employees who don't own their own homes.

That's a big part of it though. While yes there are benefits to oligarchs forxing births on the poor, many of these force brithers are white supremacists afraid of great replacement. They want white women to be forced to make more white babies, want parents to be able to give away child brides (this allows them to control who the white women marry), and people who are into their stuff like quiverfulls to have more rights.

Remember there was a hint of trying to tear down the decision that protected interracial marriage as well, which also aims for more controlled births.

people who are into their stuff like quiverfulls to have more rights.

And by all accounts, these are the white demographic having the most kids, even if white birth rates are lower, swinging the “white vote” by a great margin. Not to mention all of those arian eugenics tech bros…

Doubtful. Non-white children already make up a dominant majority of children in the United States (~60%), and that trend is increasing.
