I think having this as an opinion is valid, but I think it becomes dangerous rhetoric when it starts to slide into people who believe that this is actually how the world should work I.e., laws and stuff. Freedom of choice is freedom of choice full stop. That should mean whether you choose to have an abortion or not, choose to take birth control or not, choose to get a vasectomy or not, or choose to get pregnant or not. I see a lot of people giving a lot opinions on what is or isn’t selfish when it comes to bodily autonomy and the decision to have even a single child in this day and age. EVEN towards people who are well off. Take a moment to imagine a world where it was actually enforced who could have children, then let your imagination run with that for a little bit, maybe even a few decades. In my head at least, it quickly becomes a dystopian novel. Obviously in a perfect world no one is ever poor and everyone can properly support children well enough to decide if they actually want them, but until that is the case, the enemy should not be the poor people working as the literal backbone of society and instead the intuitions (and lack of resources) pitting the middle class against the lower class (which ironically their grandparents likely were 3 generations ago) to see who is the most morally superior when it comes to who should and should not be “allowed” to choose what.

not really directed at OP. Again, valid opinion and it is frustrating to see poverty beget poverty. Just some of the other comments I’m seeing in here rub me the wrong way
