It does not seem like all those gay people are having babies in Japan right now either
Who the fuck is still talking about Chinese overpopulation? Feels like something you’d hear during the first Bush administration

“Collectivism is a bad bad thing for meanie poos!” MFs talking about how minorities being able to enjoy more individualism is evil because it hurts the collective.
You can’t have it both ways. If there’s no “we”, guess what? There’s NO FUCKING WE when you want me to be held back for your comfort.
While atomized, americanized types would certainly connect many civil rights to “inidividualism,” there is clearly nothing inherently “individualist” about supporting gay marriage (etc.). You are making the liberals’ case for them.
“Collectivism” doesn’t mean “everyone needs to be made into the same person,” it means that society is formed around an interest in the common good, and gay people having civil rights is part of the common good.
You know, I never thought of it that way. I always thought individualism and collectivism were things that can be both be used for good and bad, with many civil rights just so happening to be individualism’s high point.
