          It is nice to think that this would be a trend but when you start from a poor conservative family there are very good chances that you didn’t have education, emotional support and was surrounded by religious fanatics, consequently you will just propagate the circle.

    This is literally natural selection in action. Do not interfere. They want to do everything on their own, no problem. But no hypocrisy. Make your choice and stand by it come what may.

      It’s not natural selection if they breed before dying, and I think the conservatives are still having more children earlier then liberals because they think God said condoms and abortion are evil.

        Most of their kids end up just like them. It’s matrix rules, until they’re out they may as well be agents.

        The children would likely grow up to be uneducated conservatives too. It’s better this way for everyone involved.

            I’m not advocating for it though?

            I’m simply stating the obvious.

              You said it was better, but you didn’t say it should happen.

      They likely still only die after having kids, so natural selection has really no effect here.
