    I’m sorry. I think it’s terminal.

      You haven’t been in a real conversation about this, have you? I understand, we’re all in echo chambers of varying sizes. I noticed you also didn’t say ‘where’ which was my original question. I think you’re a little younger than I initially clocked you, so I’ll ask this carefully:

      People move to your country; what does that have to do with having a vasectomy?

      You’ve said passing on ideals, but you haven’t explained the connection. The more people around me the more people I can pass my ideals onto – why would more people decrease that ability, and why would getting a vasectomy stop it, either?

        I’m just not super interested in people so hellbent on ideological purity that they’ll ignore the most basic mechanics of the world we live in.

          So why are you concerned about people getting vasectomies? Why does that mean they cannot also put their ideals out into the world?

            Concerned? Hell no! I fully support it.

            If you’re stupid enough to fall for this asinine bullshit, we definitely don’t want you reproducing.

              Fall for what? You haven’t committed to a single idea here, you’re all over the map.

                If you still don’t get it, I can’t help you.

                  Well if I’m going to ‘get it,’ you have to actually explain it. You’re dancing around the issue and I can’t tell for sure if it’s because you never get to this point in the conversation, or if you legitimately don’t know. You’ve been told to not like something and you’re following through on that, but it’s clear you just can’t fit the parts together. Why would being a blood-parent allow you to send your ideals forward, yet being an adoptive parent, or an uncle, or just a member of the community wouldn’t allow it? Do you feel your parents chose who you are, and how you think, and that you’ll do the same for your kids?
