The sad irony is unwanted babies tend to grow up without the parental involvement and financial backing required to become a successful sports person.

Yes, so we should murder people who don't have finances! More money for the billionaires, eh?

Please explain how abortions mean more money for billionaires.

Because then there's less pressure for the state to pay proper welfare. I recently learned that the United States doesn't have guaranteed maternity leave! "Oh, we don't do maternity leave, just have an abortion" the illusion of choice in a world ruled by billionaires!

Damn. This is 90% pathetic and the rest is cringe. This is like advanced boomer humor, but for idiots.

So that's how Charlie survived the abortion!

Seems more like a premise than a joke.

OP appears to be another comic bot. A few hours old and posts nothing but a handful of comics.

Tons of these accounts have been cropping up since early January. A lot of the accounts delete themselves after a couple days. I have no idea what the goal is, but the comics these accounts post tend to be either really mediocre (like how this one is more of a premise than a joke) or purposefully have some sort of divisive content (often about gender).

I hope that the goal is just to get people engaged in the comments and grow Lemmy, but this being the internet I can't help but wonder if there's something more nefarious going on.

The joke is the implication of what he's fencing in the womb.

I got what they're going for, it's just that they stopped before they made it funny.

Which is why I'm criticizing it as being half of a joke.
