Coming soon to an American state near you!
Took me a moment to understand this headline wasnt banning “propaganda that doesn’t include children”
China and Russia are pushing their people to have more kids and increase their numbers while amplifying the sentiment that people from enemy nations shouldn’t have kids.
Because nothing says, "I should have children" than living under an overbearing autocratic government trying to control your life!
Children are future workers, soldiers and parents.
These countries see that birth rates are dropping in the west and are looking to become dominant in numbers.
I'm pretty sure their concern is their own birth rate dropping, actually. Have you seen the demographics graph for Russia? They're facing a complete collapse of their working-age population in a decade or two
~~promote traditional family values~~ *produce more meat for the imperial meatgrinder
Russia giving JD Vance some great new policy ideas
The only thing more pathetic and limp than this law is the men who wrote it.
Putin enacting a law that wont affect him in his life time…
That is not the problem. Politicians should often be forward-thinking. In the US, failure to plan more than 2 years ahead is a huge detriment to infrastructure funding. Of course, central long-term planning à la USSR that does not consider market developments is an example of how wrong the opposite extreme can go.
LOL. Fuck the blyats. The war will just accelerate their demographic crisis.
I have a feeling that they are planning to use the survivng ukranian women and children for something.
Lmao, not like anyone is gonna want to have kids there anyway
CAN something like this really works? Because its not like he did anything at all to make life for familys easier.
Ƿ get it, Y hæv ė brıdıŋ fetic.

We get it, you have a breeding fetish.
Oh thank Moses I was wondering when all the flood of people telling me to not have kids was gonna stop! /s
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
