These mouth breathers call themselves "Pro-life" and all they care about is getting babies born. They couldn't give a crap if the kid is living well after that. And they certainly don't give a flying fuck about the mother. Otherwise they wouldn't elect assholes who promise to cut low income benefits and free school lunch programs. They believe that being against abortion will get them into heaven and that's is all they really care about. That and growing their insane death cult membership rolls.

Gotta love it when the racists self identify.

It's a Vice article so it's all bullshit anyhow.

I was admittedly pulled in by the clickbait title but then saw that it's a Vice article and realized that reading this crap would be pointless as it will all be absolute bullshit.

Says the asshole mooching off the gold standard free healthcare given to congressmen.

The article in question.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/phoenix-baby-left-alone-after-mother-dies-rescued/

It does say the mother recently gave birth. One can reasonably assume that the child in question is who she gave birth to. No matter what, the title and the article are terribly written.

Edit: fixed link

Edit 2: here is a slightly more responsibly written article and title.

As someone else in the comment section pointed out, this death and the infant's precarious situation probably could have been avoided if America's shitty for-profit healthcare system wasn't such a god awful shit show.

The original headline ignores the mother all together to put the focus completely on the child, seeking to engage potential readers with ragebait only to throw cold water on them in the article where they disclose the death of the mother. All in order to completely sidestep any discussion of why exactly a new mother would suddenly die in our country "with the greatest healthcare in the world!"

A statistic that is becoming more and more common.

Edit: there's also an overly heavy focus on dumping praise on the cops, which is ridiculous since they were simply doing their job.

Yes. Because old people who ~~read local news stories~~ are mindlessly anti-choice tend to care more about infants than adults.

FTFY

Not even sure what year this is from cause the murder rate in Japan is .23% per 100,000 as of 2022.

Interestingly the United States is at 5.7% per 100,000 as of 2023.

Relevant Wikipedia article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate

And as of 2022 it looks like the Christian population of Japan has declined to around .96% of the total population.

That's fine, billionaires do not add to an economy, they drain it. So if they leave it will remove a useless burden on the economy and whatever country is dumb enough to take them in can deal with them instead. Meanwhile, if they are pulling money from our country we can find ways to tax it and prevent them from draining our resources (and yes, money is a resource like any other).

I think it's both. People who've never before really considered using Linux have started migrating off of Windows ever since the end of service announcement for Win10.

Steam has especially made ditching Windows for gaming s lot easier.
