Oh no you see adoption. We have the best adoption centers and pro lifers line up to adopt. Adopters get training and support, adoptees get excellent pre-K and excellent public schools. Everyone gets excellent universal healthcare. See?

The sad thing is that stable, loving families will line up to adopt a healthy newborn. But then you have some of the same fuckers shaming the mother because that’s somehow dodging your responsibilities or taking the easy way out.

Don't forget conservatives blocking out thousands of married gay and lesbian couples from adopting despite them ACTIVELY wanting to adopt.

It can be really helpful for some neurodivergent folks.

It can be helpful for anyone when reading text that doesn't indicate tone very well.

Not everyone is a professional writer that can properly express sarcasm through text

Poe's Law, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parody or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.
