    This is what gets me The story doesn't make any sense - what society has ever told people to stop getting married and having kids? - but people are somehow invested in turning the most culturally normative, often mandatory institution in Western history into an act of defiancehttps://twitter.com/wife_ofbrian/status/1228061807006404608 …

    Lol, pretty much. It's not that I'm against love and everyone sharing cards and candy with each other but there is such a deeper meaning to the day and what Valentine died for that gets neglected.

        This pure fantasy where heterosexual marriage for the purpose of childbearing is BANNED and people who do it are HEROES and the childless and the gays are the oppressors It's just as obviously silly as their fixation on the idea of Christian martyrs in modern America

        This is why you can't do satire that reverses oppressors and victims It's guaranteed to be appropriated and misused, because it's already how oppressors think The oppressive majority's thirst to reimagine themselves as the oppressed minority is overwhelming and unstoppable

        If you make some kind of arch joke about how in your circle in NY cool queer people run everything and married straight people are the struggling outcasts, they will take it and run with it completely seriously because deep down they already narcissistically believe it

        (Every day someone scrapes an ironic meme from Tumblr going "Ewww cishets don't interact" or whatever and puts it in a compilation about how Gen Z cishet kids get bullied and beaten up in school every day and have to become queer to survive until graduation or some shit)

        Christian ascetics got pretty close, ironically.

        The Shakers, I think, were the biggest example of a society that actually preached *no one* should get married or have kids

        There apparently is this one sublegend where single men were easier to conscript and a general theme of conducting *Christian* rites under prohibition so you can barely latch it to some late, made up looking hagiography

        This. Which, even for Christianity, is a pretty lousy story.

        I guess there's anti-natalist stuff like the one child policy, but that's more for population control.
