Don't Forget What They've Taken From You - II

II. It used to be that a woman could choose to stay at home, do the job of molding children, at least until they’re grown, shielded from this quite brutal world, quite the great privilege, and base on what we see these days it was better they did. But then the feminists came ’round, called raising kids a curse, shamed the women who would do it, an action quite perverse. Shamed the women who would do it, an action quite perverse, said women should be just like men, called that equality, pushed it so hard the most people no longer have babies. Ignoring that most men hate work, and wish they could escape, but now women are just as sad, and damned to lonely fates. Politicians all went along, driven mostly by greed, more workers means more tax money, which those scum always ‘need.’ Now our kids are raised by strangers, and grow up wrong, it’s true, see the evil and don’t forget what was taken from you.
