“Je suis Charlie Hebdo. Spartacus, too.”
Don’t believe me? Tucker Carslon made the factual observation that the military’s effeminization and war-fighting are incompatible objectives. This is obviously so, so of course the armed forces declared war – “Mean Girls” style – on Carlson. Now he’ll never be Prom King.
Here is an obvious truth, one so easy to understand you need six-figures’ worth of student debt to miss it: Fertile women ought not be put in peril.
We say “women and children first” but the purpose of civilization is children. We can tell we are at war with ourselves – with our undeniable natural identity as organisms – by how much we are at war with that simple fact.
A woman in combat is not as stupid as a man in a birthing chair, but both are obvious misapplications of limited resources. But while a man dying in combat loses one life, when a fertile woman is a casualty of war, she takes legions with her: Her eggs, of course, but also the family she won’t have, the investment that family would have made in the future, and all the children and grandchildren never to come…
All lost because we are mad – and in our madness desperate to cease to exist.
