    As a male Harris voter who loved the Barbie movie unironically, I get all her points. However, I do want to point out that if liberals simply stop raising kids, all that guarantees is that the next generation are going to be a bunch of conservative pricks. Yes, the future looks like it’s gonna suck, but our options are either to raise better humans for the future, or give up on humanity altogether and ensure the future does not align with our values. Consider having kids as an insurance policy for a better future for everyone.

    And you don’t have to birth the kids yourself if you don’t want to, or are unable to. A few of my kids’ friends parents are various flavors of LGBTQ++, and I don’t necessarily know if they are biological or adopted – nor is it any of my business. But these families are in our community, and providing an example to others that there is no single family archetype.
