    JD Vance says that the country is run by "childless cat ladies" who don't have a "direct stake in it," specifically naming Pete Buttigieg and AOC. "If we want a healthy ruling class, we should support more people who actually have kids." pic.twitter.com/at1DYcT4G9

        continually difficult to remember if I'm seeing a real TV show or one of those things they do in sarcastic dystopian movies where they try to show how horrifying the worst TV punditry could be

        Why does anyone want any type of “ruling class”? Giving the game away with how these people view the world.

        Also, hemophelia is inherited so I'm not sure just having more kids will solve the problem anyway
