The Heritage Foundation’s latest document, “Saving America by Saving the Family: A Foundation for the Next 250 Years,” was published in January, and its purported goal is to reverse the country’s declining birthrate.

See, if you can’t physically force women to have more babies, which is what abortion restrictions aim to do, you design government policies that pressure women into having more babies.

You cut off opportunities outside the home, you make the public sphere hostile to women’s independence and you create a system where the only viable path left for a woman is dependence on a man for survival. In other words, you drag the country back to a time when women had fewer choices.

Please understand that this is instinct, not political-variant-specific, or culture-specific:

male-supremacy is the bedrock of totalitarian-authoritarianism, is what the evidence has been showing us, all along.

The "taliban", the "christians", zionists ( yes, the "Israel" which brags sooo much about women's rights compared with other cultures, is eradicating women's rights, & some stories about that have got visible ), the Asian equivalents, it's consistent that murdering women's validity is the basis for authoritarianism's "kingdom".

Ask yourself if the root-guru of the Christians, benJoseph, meant male-supremacists or women, in his "The Meek Shall Inheret The Earth", meaning they'll have their own flowering-time.

( "stalk-growing-time" or "animals-and-tribes-time" is the past 6 "generations"/"ages".

"flowering-time" is the time we're offered, if we get through "The Great Filter", as whites call it, or "The Great Purification", as American Indians call it: it's got nothing to do with gender-supremacy: it's got to do with values & souls.

The fact that male-supremacy has trod-on women's souls for millenia means that needs total undoing.

It in no way requires that male-lives' souls be trod-on, no matter how much male-culture presumes that it "must" mean that, in its exclusive-binary-only "reasoning". )

It's truly the deepest prejudice there is, among our world.

Babboons, chimpanzees, & human-male-supremacism are all absolute-prejudices.

Human-prejuduce, however, is voluntary & that is a difference which needs to be converted to removed.
