“Pregnant people of color”, the phrase you use when you want to be both sexist and racist (and the audacity of saying both “people of color” and “white people” in the same sentence)

Frankly, I'm shocked that they used the word "pregnant" at all, and not some troon appeasement term like "birthing person" or "womb carrier."

Nothing would highlight woke newspeak like "womb carrier of color." I'll bet black women would just love the absolute shit out that, having some sanctimonious, racist white lefty calling them that.

We got "native womb carriers" a couple of days back. What's worse there, is it was apparently a quote from a native woman

Native politics have been crazy for far longer than other race identity politics.

They will literally get people killed in South America to hold on to their favourite buzz words. All to push their favorite corrupt political party, of course.

A few months back I saw one arguing for the reintroduction of the one drop rule and getting cheered on (because many in native politics are like Elizabeth Warren).

Some natives have been betraying their own interests since the colonists got here. What else are you going to do when your colonizers not only control everything to the point that you have no hope of reclaiming your culture, but when some of them start to pretend they’re different from the rest of the colonizers and they can speak on your behalf?

Of all the people that have been fucked throughout history, I feel the most for the natives.

It's hard to consent to a life saving procedure when you are in a diabetic coma or passed out due to hypertension.

Unfortunately the risk of type 2 diabetes is based on race so white people will always have better outcomes and less procedures in some areas of medicine.

Nothing says "r/science" more than "pregnant people".

That sub is nothing but social "science", a.k.a propaganda.

Do pregnant men have different experiences than pregnant women?

Well, squeezing a baby out through the pee-pee is something of an adventure, or so I'm told. Like passing a kidney stone, but dialed up to 11.

Or a pregnant boy?

It's true, chartreuse women get more episiotomies and magenta women never are offered epidurals.

I'm wondering how many of those 13k up votes are bots. Ditto for the 800 and something comments.
