Incredibly hot take but if your parents are not smart enough to learn about how useless polygenic risk scores are before they select their lineage based on them, your IQ is already doomed (genetically and environmentally).
For Hume The Bell Tolls@seashelljulia
Incredibly hot take but if you have the financial means to do this with your future child you might be morally obligated to do so

@davidslosttt Bush won the majority of Arab Americans in 2000 and Republicans had a major break through during the 2022 by talking about lgbtq and schools
English
@davidslosttt I 100 percent agree that without Gaza Democrats would have still won but by a much larger margin but tbh I still imagine eventually soon Democrats would eventually return to losing Muslim Arab voters, them voting democrat has really been a marriage of convience
English
i think people forget how crazy the swing in Dearborn was even from 2022
it went from Biden+40 to Whitmer+30 to Trump+6

@davidslosttt Whitmer 2022 did like 20-30 points worse here than Biden 2020. Dems tied themselves to the Abortion referendum, and that also did terribly here, which was likely one of the reasons they moved right. This area probably moves right without the genocide in Gaza, just not as much

@Trop4444 @KyleSeraphin means that while yes AIPAC got their prefered candidate today Israel is rapidly losing support in America especially long term
English
@Trop4444 @KyleSeraphin Israel is rapidly losing support in America their standing has been completely nuked in the democratic party and if you saw the exit polls The pro-Israel candidate did terrible with younger republican voters. The fact that Israel is so clearly influencing our elections

@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 it is a financial obligation not a medical one. Three one a child is born the legal focus shifts entirely from the parent's right to the child's right. Child support is not a punishment to the father or a reward to the mother it is the right belonging to the child
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 abortion is first of all not murder and the man is not the one carrying the child. secondly understand the difference between bodily autonomy vs financial responbilities. abortion is rooted in bodily autonomy where as child support does not infringe upon a man's bodily autonomy
English
Maybe it's just me but I dont understand how the legal system allows shit like this. 33k a month is just ridiculous.

Floyd Mayweather reportedly had a baby with a dancer at his Vegas strip club He’s been ordered to pay $1M in back child support and $33k a month (via TMZ)

@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 yes they should legally still be forced as it takes 2 parents to sign of on adoption and so long as parent is refusing the child can not be put for adoption and as result you are still responsible for your child
English
@ByMSA21 @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 There is no reason a mom or dad should be able to say no to adoption and also force the other parent to be involved. If you put a baby up for adoption the parents are paying for anything, why can a mom force a dad to pay?
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 when a child is put in foster home, group home, or becomes a ward of the state the parents are still legally responsible for paying child support, the thing is the vast majority of parents with children in foster care are living in deep poverty so they pay very little if any
English
@ByMSA21 @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 No they aren’t, kids don’t have adoptive parents all the time dumbass. The have foster homes everywhere, group homes where the kids are waiting. You don’t know what you’re talking about
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 nothing I said is false if you are such a danger to kids then yes the goverment in extreme cases can strip you of your parental duties but that is only in very extreme cases where the child is in danger
English
@ByMSA21 @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 That’s also not true, the government can decide a parent is unfit to be around the child and keep them away from it. You just making shit up.
English
voters identify free healthcare & other left economic populist policies as moderate. dc thinktanks & corporate sponsored legacy pubs are the only places where these concepts are seen as radical. that’s why they look at this graph and think, “we gotta pivot right on culture wars”

@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 raising your child is not the duty of the state the other parent isn't forcing you to be a parent it is the state that is forcing you take care of your kid
English
@ByMSA21 @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 Shouldn’t be a system that allows either parent to force on to become a parent at any point
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 they are legally handing off that duty to adoptive parents
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 nope putting a child up for and one parent walking away is different. according to family law a child must always have 2 legal parents responsibile for them unless one is deceased. in standard adoption biological parents are not dropping their financial duty into the void
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 the millions are not entitled to her it is the child. two I really hope you are smart enough to understand the difference between bodily autonomy vs financial obligation
English
@ByMSA21 @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 That’s not how it should be, the father is choosing to not be involved and is getting charged more than necessary for it. The kid isn’t apart of his life, the same way an aborted child isn’t apart of his life. A woman choosing to give birth should not entitle her to millions
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 neither parent can waive their parental rights or escape financial obligation once the child is born
English
@LFC_UK_MVK @amimevalepitito @jmacckie @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 this is such a retarded take I don't know what is worse the fact that you not knowing even if he split custody he would still have to pay child support. Society does not care wether the father wants to be in his life or not child support is the right of the child not the father
English
@amimevalepitito @jmacckie @LFC_UK_MVK @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 and I am saying you are wrong I do think it is a good thing that we try to give children the same quality of life as their father
English
@ByMSA21 @jmacckie @LFC_UK_MVK @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 The whole original point of mine that you initially responded to was that i think the current approach to child support is wrong. I know what the current system is.

@ByMSA21 @jmacckie @LFC_UK_MVK @playboyswervo @Mushur9a4 Sure, the point we are discussing in this thread is that that system is wrong
