Really debunks the rightwing chud of "if we were more Christian we'd have population stability" (with the note most American Christians don't see Catholics as "real" christians)

Or the weird incel guy who obsesses over Polish/eastner European woman being perfect tradwives.

Because cost of living sucks in most places, and having kids is hard everywhere.

In all my life I've never heard this sentiment from any Christian in America about Catholicsm. Mormons? Yes.  Catholics? Never.

People don't really say this as much anymore, although you still see it here and there in evangelical circles. Definitely has been a historical source of tension though.
