Poster family for Anti-Natalism

Tuesday February 19, 2008

Categories: Family

Um, ya 'member when I said I was all for natalism, and having big families and stuff. Well, these bums aren't what I meant. This father is a no-good layabout who gives natalists a bad name. He is some sort of kooky Islamist too, and founded his own not-very-popular political party dedicated to Islam. While one wishes Her Majesty's Government would find some way to deport this jerk, who is in no way helping do his part for his family or for the society he depends entirely on for support ... on the other hand, as Steve Sailer says, "It's pure comedy gold." Yes, well, that's one way of looking at it.

Speaking of comedy, the Labour government has decided British Muslims with multiple wives can collect extra welfare benefits on each of them, and have their polygamous marriages recognized in Britain provided they were performed in places where polygamy is legal. Onward and upward, Brittania! The Archbishop of Canterbury must be so pleased.

Back when I worked in the juvenile court, we had one case involving a woman who had 22 children total (naturally we called the case "Catch-22), of whom 18 were already in the foster care system, and we were working on numbers 19-22. I pointed out at the time that in the USSR, she'd be a Mother Heroine, but for some reason nobody at the office thought it was funny.

These parents are like the cuckoo or the cowbird--lay your eggs in someon else's nest, and let the stranger feed them. Kick the stranger's chicks out of the nest.

He's not the poster child for "anti natalism". He's a symptom of the absurdity of the welfare state with open borders. And the poster child for that would (currently) be Gordon Brown.
