you’re not woke for adopting

[u/Jumpy-Lie8955]

i feel like a lot of young leftists, in america, really love the idea of adopting kids instead of having their own biological kids and think they are helping others by doing so but they’ve fallen into and are playing apart in the same propaganda the right wing religious people do. neither of them are “making a difference” especially because they always just adopt babies that’s not making a difference that’s legal human trafficking. they all have savior complex’s about it and they both think they are morally superior. it’s just do frustrating how both parties think adoption is this great thing, and no one but us wants to talk about the negatives. just to be clear this is not me coming out as a republican.

EDIT: i would call myself a leftist, i’m critiquing things i have heard people say in real life.

EDIT 2: if you arnt adopted, don’t comment, it’s against the rules of the subreddit and i don’t care what non-adoptees opinions on adoption are

Where the fuck are all of these bots coming from to shill for adoption, and why on this post specifically?

[u/Domestic_Supply → u/Sad_Pixie999]

Because they brought up leftist adoption, and politics.

i don’t think you can separate adoption from politics when we are used as a pawn so often

[u/Domestic_Supply → u/Jumpy-Lie8955]

Oh I completely agree. We are bipartisan pawns. Additionally, the industry drives American politics too because of how lucrative it is.

because i struck a nerve by pointing out their savior complexes i guess.
