IT ALWAYS BEGINS AS A JOKE. LISTEN ME BOTH OF YOU.
ONE SEES A FATHER OR A MOTHER OF WHOM THEY DO NOT APPROVE--
AND THEIR BRATS WON'T SHUT UP. AND THE PARENTS ARE SO EXHAUSTED THAT THEY JUST LET THEIR CHILDREN SCREAM. ALL STICKY AND CREAM, ALL STICKYG AND CRYING G AND HITTING AND WILD.
AND YOU SAY TO YOUR FRIENDS. YOU SHOULD HAVE TO PASS A TEST TO BREED." DO YOU UNDERSTAND? "YOU LD HAVE TO GET LICENSED TO HAVE KIDS.
IT STARTS AS A A JOKE.
THEN PERHA THERE RE IS IS TRAGEDY TRAGEDY, THERE A POSTPARTUM MOTHER WHO SHOULD'VE GOTTEN HELP, BUT HER INSURANCE DID NOT COVER THE THERAPY.
THE TEST COMES OUT. AND YES. THERE'RE SOME PROBLEMS, BUT NOTHING THAT CANNOT BE IRONED OUT. YES?
BUT NOW ANYONE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS, WITH A CRIMINAL RECORD, IS BARRED FROM BECOMING A PARENT. AND YOU THINK, "WELL THAT IS SENSIBLE YES?
BECAUSE YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN ANYONE LIKE THAT. SO WHO IS TO TELL YOU THEY ARE NOT LIKE THEY ARE PORTRAYED IN STORIES?
DANGEROUS, CRIMINAL--THESE WORDS EXPAND
AND YOU THINK, GOOD YOU THINK THOSE CHILDREN WILL BE SAFE NOW.
THE FIRST TESTS ARE DRAFTED.
FATHER ERRED BECAUSE HE WAS RAISED BELIEVING MEN ARE PATHET IF THEY ARE CAREGIVERS
SUDDENLY IT IS ANYONE WITH DIABETES ES, ANYONE WITH CANCER. BECAUSE THEY COULD DIE AND LEAVE THEIR CHILDREN ORPHANED SO HOW DARE THEY EVER TRY TO HAVE CHILDREN?
IT IS DEAF COUPLES, DISABLED COUPLES, INTERRACIAL COUPLES, GAY COUPLES.. BECAUSE DON'T THEY KNOW HOW HARD THEY'RE MAKING IT FOR THE CHILDREN?
THEN IT IS WHOEVER THEY WANT.
THEN ONE DAY--IT IS YOU.
SOME GENE SOME HISTORY, SOME PAST BEHAVIOR--AND SUDDENLY, YOU TOO ARE SICK, DANGEROUS CRIMINAL
--HUMAN HATE CAN ADAPT TO ANYTHING.
YOU THINK SAFE
[Cut here rather than truncate the end]
BUT IF SOMEONE HATES COME UP WITH THE REASON AFTER THE FACT
ONLY THEN DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU PUT IN POWER. ONLY THEN DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU STRIPPED AWAY
THERE IS TERRIBLE POWER IN A JOKE, IN A STORY, IN TAKING THE TRUTH AND MAKING IT UGLY.
UNDERSTAND CHILDREN?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mx2hu54nwubxe2pcntjmdk6r/bafkreihyk3urrhru3srmdsfyce65y3nmalr743blhw47s7vd2ffsdgmake@jpeg)

YOU CAN'T JUST HELP PEOPLE--
Sure you can.
BUT PEOPLE MIGHT ABUSE THE HELP--
Sure.
BUT THAT'S WRONG--
Who cares.
BUT WHAT IF THEY WERE LYING--
So what.
BUT THEY DIDN'T EARN-
Money is made up.
BUT THAT'S NOT FAIR-
So what, you want to stop helping people because a few people might abuse it? Fuck off.
Sure you can.
