Would anyone be surprised if they were? After all, progressives have spent decades championing abortion at all phases of pregnancy right up to birth — and sometimes immediately after. Over the last decade, they have taken up the Queer Movement’s transgender campaign and demanded pediatric sex-change therapies that leave adolescents neutered for life. Their climate-change agenda emphasizes the need for population reversal and rails over the insult to Gaia that human procreation creates.
They’re not exactly kid-friendly, in other words. But don’t just rely on instincts and political posturing on this question, because actual data shows that progressives practice what they preach. Financial Times analyst John Burn-Murdoch reviews the results of a study on declining birth rates in the developed world, including the US, and the impact of political ideology on procreation. While those rates are declining in all categories, they are collapsing among progressives.
