Uh, yeah, birth control is being depicted as the problem. Birth control which would solve overpopulation. Really seems to be an anti-contraceptive cartoon to me.

This.  There are still idiots who believe that widespread use of contraception would somehow be enough to cause a population collapse.

I have actually seen documentaries about this. One of which relied mostly on the idea that showing videos where children are fading out makes people go 'Oh noes!'

'Demographic Winter', I think it was called.

Uhm... do any of these people realize that THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WHO UTILIZE CONTRACEPTION EVENTUALLY HAVE CHILDREN ANYWAY?

People who either elect voluntarily not to reproduce or are in some other way unable to do it (infertility, being trans, being gay) and don't utilize fertility treatments are in the minority. A tiny minority. MOST PEOPLE STILL HAVE CHILDREN AND CONTRACEPTION USE DOES NOT CHANGE THAT. All it does is let people decide for themselves when and how often.

Of course anything but GAWD'S WILL is unacceptable, amirite?

This sums it up.

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Today my dad was going on and on about how it's bad that there are fewer kids being born in the world today because he wants someone to pay for his social security.

Which is only funny because he's totally against government handouts.

Well, see, handouts are only bad when it is SOMEONE ELSE getting the handout.

I do want to point out that even if the first pic I posted is supposed to mock it, it doesn't do a very good job at all and just looks like an alternate poster.

-pic snip-

I thought I'd give that second one a little update, considering no abortion would be preformed on an infant.

So, here you go. My take on that little pro-life tripe (forgive the comic sans, please):
