"Raising a family is getting so expensive. Can I get some help?"

Conservatives: No. Your child, your responsibility.

"Oh. I guess I shouldn't have kids, then."

Conservatives: Oh, no. You must have kids. As many as possible.

"What? But I thought—"

Conservatives: BABIES. NOW.

It’s like you’re in the room. You one of them?

@davidhmccoy Nebraska native, so I’ve definitely been in that room a time or two!

@maxleibman

Oh yes! I grew up around super-religious people.

I definitely know the lingo.

Edit: That’s why I’m so skeptical of religion. I’ve seen the hypocrisy up close.

@maxleibman They want specific kinds of babies though

It's that "No give! Only throw!" dog comic but it's "No help! Only (white) babies!"
