They are pro-birth and not pro-life. Pro-life means actually caring for other humans and their struggles. Make life better for all. Making a liveable habitat.

But they just want the R number to go up for either not enough of their own or not enough wage slaves in the future.

    That is the majority of people, indoctrination runs deep. Pro birth is just a naive take to further separate and reinforce the patriarchy.

    Explain to me how this seperates and reinforces the patriarchy? I genuinely cannot understand it from the explanation and would like to understand your point of view.

    Reinforces the view that men go out and work and earn the money while women either stay home as babymaking machines or bear the majority of the responsibility of childcare and domestic labor while also working. It also disproportionately affects women by stripping them of their free will and bodily autonomy

    The part that I just don't understand how the pro-birth thing is a naive take? For clarity's sake, it is the language part that baffles me. English isn't my first language and things do get lost in translation.

    I get that it will be downvoted some more, but I rather try to understand what I don't know.

    It's not naive, actually -- I'm not sure why it was referred to as such. It is a highly calculated and very malicious move to force pregnant women to give birth whether they want to or not -- thereby reinforcing the patriarchy by making it infinitely more difficult for women to access education and the workforce.
