We leftists don't have time, resources, or largely even the desire to have children in such a shithole. We're also way more literate than the right and have a sense of forward thinking and planning, so we understand what parenthood requires.

We have a revolution to build, and simply don't want to be tied up in parenthood and join the ranks of the rest of the miserable, dysfunctional families capitalism has forcefully cultivated. Not only that, we're always considering what our theoretical children would want, since bringing them into this world isn't just about us. Don't forget, we were/are someone's kid. What did we get out of the arrangement? A front row seat to the end of a viable future. This is what we're supposed to reproduce? This is the burden we're supposed to force on someone else who didn't consent to being born in these conditions? Fuck. That.

The only way I'd have kids is if China or the DPRK guaranteed my theoretical partner and I a secure existence will full citizen rights, that way we'd have piece of mind we couldn't be rug pulled and sent back West to fucking die. The West cannot have my children, ever.

As for your question about being worried reactionaries are having many more kids, I honestly don't worry all that much. Those type of parents tend to be abusive and sabotage their children's interests, development and aspirations, or fight against them. How many of us are products of abusive reactionary families? Don't Elon Musk's kids hate him? Proletarianization is inevitable, and history always has a Marxist bias.
