Your white children reinforce the white supremacist society that benefits you. If you claim to be progressive, and yet willingly birth white children by your own choice, you are a hypocrite. White women should be encouraged to abort their white children, and to use their freed-up time and resources to assist women of color who have no other choice but to raise their children.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Don&#8217;tcha especially love that part about women of color not having the &#8220;privilege&#8221; of having an abortion when abortion violates their religious or ethical beliefs?

It gets increasingly harder to tell real craziness from supposedly exaggerated craziness.<\/p>\n<p>OTOH, if this is real, then think of the effect of calling <em>every<\/em> white person a white supremacist.
