Capitalists continue to exploit, glorify breeding

I live in America. Here, I witness things that make the rest of the world laugh at us almost daily. You see that quite frequently in the American Bible belt, which to me is the representation of this nation's ills. It is where the slave trade began. It took almost a quarter of a millennium for that area to shake off segregation. People there seem to think that church and government are somehow hand in hand. How they see this, I don't know.

A family in Arkansas (big surprise) has given birth to eighteen children. You might have heard of them. The Duggar family. These people are members of a racist cult (The Quiverful Movement), an arm of the far religious right that indoctrinates its members to have a double-digit number of children to keep whites from being out-bred by Mexicans. Research it.

Now, you wouldn't expect a racist group of people (one that is breeding like rabbits with no regard for the environment) such as these individuals to be glorified by the media. You wouldn't expect the Ku Klux Klan to get their own reality show on the Discovery Channel would you? Well, in this country, which is run by companies, they are held to a high position on their very own reality Discovery Health series.

Of course, one should expect this in a country run by ruthless companies. Breeding feeds the capitalist machine. It creates more consumers and wage slaves. There is no regard for the environment, and there is no regard for the general welfare. This is the one commandment of capitalism: profit is good.

This Duggar brood pays no property taxes, since they live on church property. Money that they could be paying in taxes to help promote the general welfare (a really crazy concept in the U.S. Constitution) is pocketed so they can raise their brood.

The companies have the media firmly in their grip, so it should really come as no surprise to anyone that the media would glorify this sort of behavior.

Shit, have you noticed all of the new movies that have been coming out glorifying pregnancy (e.g. Juno, Knocked Up)? The media is attempting to saturate our culture in this propaganda that breeding is good. Breeding creates more consumption. Like George Carlin once said, "Consumption! That's the new national pastime. Fuck baseball! It's consumption!"

While I'm on the topic of reproductive and environmental irresponsibility, let's discuss Octo-Mom. This clearly incompetent, baby cannon bitch has successfully made her mother a nervous wreck with her fourteen children. Her dumbass fertility doctor could face probing from an ethics committee. (I hope they strip him of his license!) Guess what, there's a possibility there could be a reality show about her! Only in America, friends. Only in America.

The shitty thing is that she's complaining about not having enough money. Well, those fourteen children may have something to do with it! Put those kids up for adoption, you stupid bitch. Those tax dollars going to support your breeding lifestyle could prevent teen pregnancies with birth control!

I am embarrassed for my country today.



Duggars celebrate the birth of their grandchild:

Behold the glorification of mindless, irresponsible breeding by corporate-controlled media:
18 Kids and Counting! stupidfest on Discovery Health

Octo-Mom could have her own reality show:
