I’m hoping this doesn’t start a fight, I’m just curious what the political orientation is of this community. I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me, like interest in LGBTQ and women’s rights, environmentalism, etc. Wondering where people here land?
So you are one of those types against drag story hour?
Also you want a stagnant population and prefer that over immigration?
I don’t get how bible story times is any better that drag queen story times, if the interest of the children’s well being is real. I was raised in the christian church and feel very much like I was groomed and indoctrinated as I was brought up.
Drag queens just reading nice kids books to children is better than indoctrinating kids into Christianity, IMO
CBO projects that the majority of population growth overthe next two decades is from immigration. It seems our friend here is in favor of a shrinking population

I am. Or at least slowing growth. I’d prefer stopping or shrinking, but I figure slowing is an easier sell.
Yeah that confused me, because a shrinking population is bad for the economy, no?
Yes, we cant grow forever. Better long term solution is for other countries to become livable.
But immigration is an excellent solution to declining birth rates, why be against that?
I don’t view declining birth rates as a problem.
It’s economic suicide but okay.
