        Most of their kids end up just like them. It’s matrix rules, until they’re out they may as well be agents.

        The children would likely grow up to be uneducated conservatives too. It’s better this way for everyone involved.

          Imagine publicly advocating for the deaths of children via preventable and gruesome illness.

            I’m not advocating for it though?

            I’m simply stating the obvious.

              You said it was better, but you didn’t say it should happen.

              Huh.

              Yep, that’s not advocating. Checks out. Carry on.

            Nah just advocating for the obvious consequences of their specific actions. Cause and effect.

      They likely still only die after having kids, so natural selection has really no effect here.
