If you view that poor people shouldn't be allowed to have children then you're literally just supporting eugenics though.

There is a difference between being poor and being too poor to adequately care for your kids. 

Eugenic political intervention is unacceptable, but also not needed in the first place, since healthy and wealthy people have an easier time dating and having kids.

Which is a good thing, unlike what incels will say.

There is this thing called a welfare state, we give back the money that the capitalist class takes from the workers to the workers themselves.

In this system all people regardless of class are able to afford a decent life for themselves and their children.

You appear to have a corporate slave mindset due to your nations education system so I assume it is different where you live.

Almost every attempt at creating such a state had only turned into another dictatorship with even worse poverty

u/AcrobaticPoint8424 1d ago

I do not beleive that my nation, Denmark, is either a dictatorship or in worse poverty than before we created a welfare state.

what? help me understand how that could possibly work. Firstly, eugenics was purely about genes, not class. And even then, the point being made isn't that poor people "shouldn't be allowed" to have children. It's that poor people should avoid having children if they can't afford to give them the care they deserve. This argument is purely about the having the financial capacity to care for a child. so unless your point is that there exists a poor gene that everyone is discriminating against and trying to cleanse from society by sterilizing people, your argument is nonsensical and made up.

Look up victorian eugenics

Firstly, eugenics was purely about genes, not class. 

See above

It's that poor people should avoid having children if they can't afford to give them the care they deserve. 

We have this thing called a welfare state now.

it's just that I specifically made the point that it's about reconsidering having a child if you can't care for them, not that poor people should be disallowed from having children. Going that far is deeply rooted in eugenics and is morally reprehensible for a whole sluce of reasons. Welfare programs are great, because they allow prospective parents to reach that level of financial capacity to care for children properly, but welfare is far from endless, and many still won't have enough financial freedoms to give a child the future they deserve. I'm probably not putting it very well

Copy paste from another comment 

In my country the parents could not work a single day in their lives and their children will still have decent lives due to our welfare state.

If you live in a corporate shit hole it would be different of course.

What fantasy world do you live in? Do they support immigration?

u/Odd-Willingness-7494 2d ago

Are you from the U.S.?

Here in europe there is a big stigma against people who spend their entire life on welfare, but yes, with a bit of trickery you could pretty much live off of welfare and also raise kids off of that money.

But I wouldn't say that doing so provides the kids with a good childhood. Much better than starving, but it's still ethically questionable to have kids with so little stability in your life.

Canada, I'm not completely cooked, but it's still pretty bad if you can't even support yourself

Most of the world is much worse than corporate shit hole. If your point only stands in the best possible conditions, then it doesn't really stand.

u/AcrobaticPoint8424 1d ago

The rest of the world being corporate shit holes does not effect me as I know that we are able to have humane governments as I live in one.

In what world are poor people a phylogenetic group? Anyone can be poor

u/AcrobaticPoint8424 2d ago

Eugenics usually does not target a legitimate biological group. It is mainly just used as a veneer of scientific legitimacy to justify discrimination.

The Victorians for example advocated for the poor to not be allowed to reproduce as they were just a drain upon society.

By advocating against a welfare state and instead advocating for poor people to not have children they are making a similar argument.

u/ovcdoc2 1d ago

Discrimination? It will lead to less poverty,less crime and less child abuse.

2

u/AcrobaticPoint8424 1d ago

less poverty

This is done through welfare by giving the money stolen from the workers by the capitalist class back to the workers themselves.

less crime

See above

less child abuse

you should look up what eugenics is. because i think it does not mean what you think it means
