          “I’ll do for my children what my parents refused to do for me.”

          They know they’re already “in the system”, but they think they help their child stay out of it. Of course it’s bullshit. Anyone who freely uses social media, especially Facebook and is only worried about g-men tracking them has severe brain rot.

            It’s never about being tracked or anything tangible, just vague “gubmint is comical Saturday morning cartoon evil” bullshit.

            I had a bartender at my neighborhood dive going on about the “Vax is trackers” crap. I told her if she was worried about being tracked she needed to get rid of her smartphone.

            Obviously she got real pissed and stormed off. Blocked me on Facebook too. 🙄😂

              “Vax is trackers”

              If they were tracking you thought vaccinations, they’d be handing you a real card with an rfid chip at least. Not a flimsy piece of paper. God, I wish the vaccination program was run half as competently as the anti-vaxxers thought it was.

    @BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world, thank you for all of your posts. I’m absolutely fascinated by all the insanity you’re bringing us, and I know it’s a big ask, but I’d love to see a bit more context. Even just a few of the ‘best’ responses would give them more flavour. Do they ever report back when things inevitably don’t go according to ‘plan’?

          Specific to your point, my local state run/funded hospital does offer several rooms with birthing pools and midwife lead births, they weren’t pushy in any direction regarding birthing options and were generally positive on the experience, certainly didn’t discourage the option.

          Granted this is in a hospital, doctors are on hand if required and the option is removed if the pregnancy is higher risk, but a no-Doctor/kiddie-pool birth in and of itself isn’t super remarkable.

        Setting that child up for failure. An actual pull themselves up by the bootstraps situation for them to have a chance at deciding if they want to be a part of society or live the life their parents forced upon them.

          Deciding if they want to be a part of society or live the life their parents forced upon them.

          I just realized we all face this choice at some point. Some are more drastically different than others, but at some point we all have to decide if we follow what we’ve been taught through childhood, or if we follow outside influences of society.

            Actually many people believe the same but in reverse. A lesser known fact is that the SSA assigns a SSN to every child born in a hospital Source - SSA guide on Process. It is supposed to be opt-in but court cases by Native Americans have shown that its essentially mandatory and so the driving force of these live births are to avoid their children being branded by a number than can serve as an identifier for the rest of their information. When these kids grow up they often have to get their congressmen involved to get the SSA to issue an SSN since one was not issued at birth. It shows their process works to an extent since they literally have to be vetted by local congressman to show they exist. I am sure there are users in privacy focused communities who would kill to drop off the grid similarly.

        I remember a case like this that was on reddit. She posted some video explaining the whole thing and that she turned 18 in a few weeks and had no documents. No birth cert, no SSN, no DL, no official docs of any kind. She was leaving her crazy anti gov parents when she turned 18 but realized she had no way to do it for that reason. The easiest solution people had for her to start the ball on all that was for her to sue her parents for a paternity test and go from there with sworn statements and such.

          As I was reading I was wondering how one would start to prove who they are. A paternity test is definitely a good start. It links you to people who exist. I hope they write a book or sell the story at some point to help with their life. Parents really fucked it up for them.

        Home-birthing is more risky, but a “70% mortality rate” is leaving the area of “overestimation” and entering “lie” territory.

        The neonatal mortality for US hospital midwife-attended births was 3.27 per 10,000 live births, 13.66 per 10,000 live births for all planned home births, and 27.98 per 10,000 live births for unintended/unplanned home births.

        https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32044310/

        I couldn’t find numbers for births without a midwife.

        Also, in 2020, the most recent year for which the CDC provides data, a total of 9 people have contracted the plague.

        It’s a price they’re willing to have their children pay if it means they can vicariously live out their legal fantasies through them. Obviously all the trouble in their life comes from the government and creditors having some records on them so pump out a couple stealth babies while nobody’s looking, [step 2], profit.

      Oh, the parents often have passports. Consistency isn’t a real feature of sovcit fuckery. I think some do try to travel with their fake ids that they bought from some lunatic/grifter, but when it inevitably doesn’t work, the desire to go on vacation outweighs their desire to not be part of the system, so they end up applying for a passport eventually.
