A recent article in Politico Magazine titled “The Far Right’s Campaign to Explode the Population” portrays a negative view of individuals interested in raising a large family. The article suggests that the first Natal Conference, held in Austin, Texas, was an event where individuals concerned about the declining U.S. birth rate gathered and that raising a large family is a sinister plot of religious zealots and racists. The author tries to paint the idea of increasing the U.S. birth rate as a way for certain groups to ensure a future for their own kind and to create a new majority that looks and sounds just like them.
However, the idea that encouraging people to have children and raise a family is a far-right ploy to advance a particular race is absolutely ridiculous. Many people on social media also called out the author for promoting a radical agenda in the article, arguing that advocating for babies is a natural and positive endeavor. Even Tesla CEO Elon Musk made fun of the article in a response to a conservative commentator’s video about it.
In reality, people have babies for many reasons, and there are good reasons to encourage American couples to have children. The fact that many leftists today seem to prioritize their own interests over the idea of raising children does not diminish the importance of child-rearing to society.
The article fails to recognize that the declining birth rate in the U.S. could have serious ramifications for the future of the country. Encouraging family growth and ensuring a healthy population is a vital aspect of maintaining a prosperous society for generations to come. The 2024 election is of utmost importance, and it is vital for all Americans to understand the impact of their choices.
As such, it is important to support news organizations that provide accurate and balanced reporting. The Western Journal, for example, relies on direct support from readers to continue its fight for America’s soul. By supporting such news organizations, individuals can contribute to a more informed and vibrant public discourse.
