“Trump’s Pentagon wants reporters to be not just docile recipients of the administration’s preferred narratives but active propagandists.”
When @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring “Asian wife sharing” books and other pornographic works, he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions.
The very next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived.

I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.

Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

the good (?) news is that many younger people nowadays don't want to have children
too many of those who do aren't prepared to put their children's needs above their own
those people tend to treat their children as accessories or cult followers or some other form of unhealthy self-validation

too many people want to have kids but don't want to parent
some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
