So yeah, without a doubt some voters will think that this shows a strong woman who cares about her family as they're unable to see through the fact that this is a publicity stunt.

Reading through the article felt surreal, like watching an old Onion vid. The world is going crazier by the day.


Well yes, do you know how we all know that people are stupid enough to think that this is genuine. It's been posted here and OP is calling it "an example for all"

So yeah, without a doubt some voters will think that this shows a strong woman who cares about her family as they're unable to see through the fact that this is a publicity stunt.

They know most people probably will see through it, but the key is anyone who speaks out about it will easily be labeled as being sexist, against women's and mothers rights, anti-baby, etc. Of course being pro abortion is not anti-baby, but this would be...

It is a lot like people using the child porn excuse to crack down on free speech. When the conversation is framed in such a way defending free speech is easily equivocated with defending child porn. The same goes for gun rights. If you support gun rights you don't care about shootings, and so on and so on. This is a key tenet in Marxist Postmodernist subversion.

That's totally like them. We know what they are doing but the question is, how can they be stopped? Is it enough to simply call their bullshit? Is it possible to subvert a subversion and turn it on itself?

It seems to me one of the few tools left to battle this is to speak out against it. It will result in certain people hating you and possibly trying to destroy your life depending on how you go about it, but that is how these fascists operate, via threats and fear. Just keep in mind what comes next after these little training sessions are over and they have acclimated the population to keep its mouth shut over much more horrible things. This is why leftists can not tolerate open discussion, because this dynamic would be exposed.

These are all publicity bullshit. Are you people allowed to bring your babies into your offices? No? Yeah, work is not an extension of your home. And also, these are parliament members, they can afford a nanny if they want to.

I don't see the reason for these babies to be sitting in front of parliament, it's a show and dance for the politicians to be able to further show that they are family oriented or some bullshit like that. Save it for the campaign trail, not where policy decisions should be debated and decided.

My exact same sentiment. Do they really think people are so stupid to not think about this properly? It's insulting to their electorate.

Trevor Mallard who is New Zealand’s parliamentary speaker, tweeted a photo where he’s seen feeding one month old baby of lawmaker Tāmati Coffey. It’s pertinent to note that he did it while listening to the debate, and has set an example for other law makers to follow. In a similar incident that we all will surely remember is the case of Zuleikha Hassan, an Kenyan MP who was asked to leave the Assembly because she got her 5 month old baby with her. Which example do you wish your lawmakers follow Trevor’s who allowed the baby inside government offices, or Kenyan lawmakers who evicted the mother and the baby.

With regards to the Kenyan MP, I am sure that if the lady had decided to take some time off for the baby it would be a public debate, They should know that things like these are bound to happen female lawmakers who end up having babies should be given a nanny who should take care of their babies when they are in Parliament.

What?
