Israel told Gazans in Rafah to move towards Al-Mawasi because it was a humanitarian area, but several of those who did say the aid they were promised has not arrived.

    4 Grand parents, 2 parents, 4 aunt’s and uncles, 12 cousins, 2 siblings, 42 nieces and nephews. And multiply by 2 on your wife’s side. It’s not really that crazy.

    Edit: whoops was supposed to reply to another comment.

          I mean…even for someone in a wealthy context, that would seem oversized.

          How so? Each member is only raising four or three children here. If you’re having issues with people having more than two children then that’s just kind of ridiculous, frankly.

          Also raising children being a ridiculously expensive affair is partly a Western problem with uniquely Western causes. It’s not a thing everywhere.

          Thr birth control topic seems like something nobody wants to touch with a 43 1/2 foot pole…

          The only 13.2588 meter pole here is the one you’re using to avoid saying “I’m pro-eugenics” with.

      Birth control seems like a slightly less pressing issue than an ongoing genocide. You’re coming off as extremely callous here.
