eerily similar to a line from "handmaid's tale"

one of the young, still-fertile women is being made to speak to all the other handmaids, talking about what it feels like to be pregnant. she slips up, and says "i'm very thankful to Gawd for my baby" and the handler interrupts her and says (with this very creepy look on her face in the film version) "Not your baby. Our baby!" and the room erupts into cheering.

guess those black babies still aren't cute enough for richee white wimmin to want. prolly something about them being a dime a dozen, and therefore not fashionable.

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.
