And here’s the answer to why rightwing Americans like Russia.
I mean, tbf, they do seem to need more Russians…
Got to replace the hundreds of thousands that fled the draft or are currently fertilising the fields of Ukraine somehow.
Yeah, Russia has massive demographic issues and their very special military operation has caused much of their prospective parents to be killed or flee the country. They need all the births they can get.
That said the population is in that special place thats generally called FUBAR BUNDY.
The population will not recover before generations and will probably stabilise at if not preindustrial levels, at least 1950s, and that’s without the war.
Not sure this is the best way to go about repopulation though…
Why build a career, when you can have sons to replace your husband on the battlefield? It’s not like those babies need to eat or anything.
So the men get slaughtered in the trenches and the women are busy with childbearing? Question: Who actually does any work in this Russian utopian society?
The kids ;)

Well, or as we in Germany say: 1933.
At the same time Ukraine is making weed legal and allows gay marriage.
Noice! But for real, none of this was necessary. What a complete waste of life.
It’s not just the people who died, but the sadness and emptiness that is left for the people who loved them.
Russia is in a demographic crisis even without the Kremlin’s violent, barbaric war.
Is that their solution to not enough soldiers? JFC fucking orcs
Of course it is, it’s the only solution that violent authoritarians produce. Educated women reproduce less and raise good citizens of a democracy. Uneducated teenage mothers that survive and make lots of babies raise children to be soldiers and mothers. They don’t raise their kids to think or improve society.
Christ. This is just creepy, not to mention anti-science.
I don’t like this one bit, but I do believe that you are mistaken.
This is a moral stance. A bad one but only a moral stance. How is it “anti-science?” Science does opine in moral issues. It simply describes the universe.
