I think the combination of porn, abortion have basically created a lonely, isolated generation that isnt getting married, theyre not having families, and theyre actually not even totally sure how to interact with each other, Vance said in a newly unearthed interview with Crisis Magazine from August 2021.

The Crisis Magazine writer added that after asking him his thoughts on porn and birth control and their effects on familial decline, Vance admitted he wants to outright ban pornography.

Of course the guy obsessed with people increasingly choosing not to have kids is blaming declining birthrates on porn and abortion. Of course he wants to ban porn. Of course he wants to ban abortions. Trump is a menace to democracy, but this guy might actually be worse. And given that Trump is old, obese, and in a constant state of anger, we can't let this guy become VP.

PS - Him blaming fewer marriages on abortion is a tacit admission that he supports two people marrying solely because of unwanted pregnancies. Add to that the right's stance on no-fault divorces, and you've got a nation of people trapped in loveless marriages. That's the American JD Vance wants for us.

My friends and family members who dont want kids cite things like climate change and the horrible proliferation of guns as reasons not to bring more lives into this world. Genuine threats that the GOP is uninterested in doing anything about as long as donations and wedge issue voters keep rolling in.

None of them mention porn. Vance and the GOP are just weird and creepy as fuck.

Vance should ask Mike Johnson's son how much porn his dad watches, (since his son is his "accountability partner").

If they actually cared about the loneliness problem (which is admittedly a real problem), maybe they would push back against the shitty work-life balance and implement laws and rules to push back against the work week that's become a 55-hour thing, but...no, they won't ever do that.

An actual reason why people are more isolated in the US is car dependency, suburban sprawl, and lack of third places. Young people nowadays in many parts of the countries have so few options for socializing in their communities.

It's because the US has chipped away at the quality of life so much that people can't afford to have children and the other groups don't want to birth someone into this crappy environment. I wanted kids I told I saw how much the US doesn't care to make sure they'll live a better life than I did.

The #1 reason the birthrate is declining is that teenage pregnancy rates have cratered, and the #2 reason is that nobody has the financial stability to have kids anymore.

"Why aren't you all out here buying homes and starting families?"

"We can't afford to. You people (the government) have destroyed our ability to do so by combination of stagnating wages, unregulated soaring rent and allowing unregulated businesses to sweep up all the homes as investment properties creating a housing crisis in a nation where 10% of homes sit vacant* and another 34% are being rented out to tenants who would otherwise be purchasing**."

"Right, it's the porn. I knew it. You disgusting masturbators. FUCK you. Childless creeps. No votes for you."

Add free or reasonable day care and I would have another kid. Make all these free and I would have 2 more kids. Solution is so simple, but of course its just virtue signaling to fan the culture war flames. Also weird how all these tech people are obsessed with the birth rate. Probably cause they know they need a growing population to maintain the growth of all their companies.

It's always a bit strange seeing birthrates get spun as a culture war issue.

Kids just suck. I don't want to raise a messy annoying goblin and I don't want to spend ANY money on raising it. No amount of porn bans or financial incentives will change that.

I just don't see a point in kids. It'd be a purely negstive impact on my life with no positive value

Problem is that banning porn isn't going to suddenly make people go out and start having sex with each other. It's probably more likely to just make people have less avenues to relieve themselves and be even more pent up and frustrated.

Fact of the matter is that the politicians are too selfish to comprehend why anything is going on in their own country. And if they aren't too selfish to understand, then they are too greedy to stop saying stupid shit and would rather cause a cultural divide than admit the problem .

It's a multiprogned attack, though. Banning porn in conjunction with abstinence-based sex ex and abortion bans will lead to higher birthrates, especially in poorer communities. This is going to be exacerbated if Republicans get their way vis-a-vis contraceptive bans.

Poorer communities (and by communities at large I mean countries in general) already have more children than rich ones. So that's actually just inaccurate. They're going on with a flawed premise.

Poor people can't even afford to watch porn because they may not have the time or resources to do so.

None of their plans will make people start having children. The reason it's not working in the US is because corporations have made it unviable. You don't have enough time, money and several politicians want to strip away protections for people to be more likely to have a child and not care.

If you strip away these things, all you'll see are things like coat hanger abortions making a comeback.
