Nicole Shanahan is sounding the alarm🚨
China is developing a robotic womb, and the FDA is reviewing similar technology for premature babies.
“It’s as if we’ve just accepted that babies will be manufactured by machines instead of conceived by women.”
Thread🧵
Nicole Shanahan warns that governments are ignoring the fertility crisis and chasing artificial wombs instead.
“Did you see the story about China developing the world’s first pregnancy humanoid, effectively a robot womb?”
“Across China, Asia, and even here in the West, we’re facing a population collapse.”
“For perspective, replacement level is 2.1 children per woman—China is at about 1.1.”
“Instead of asking why women can’t naturally conceive and carry healthy babies to term, the response has been to double down on artificial solutions.”
She says this shouldn’t surprise us—we’ve built a culture erasing moms and redefining womanhood.
“It’s as if we’ve just accepted that babies will be manufactured by machines instead of conceived by women.”
“This of course follows years of communist rule in China, where they effectively erased much of what it meant to be feminine.”
“In the West, we are seeing the word mother being quietly erased, replaced with words like ‘childbearing individual.’”
“It looks less like science helping women and more like science trying to redefine what it means to be a woman.”
Nicole warns how quickly technology shifts from emergency use to mass-market norm.
“The FDA is reviewing an artificial womb technology for premature babies.”
“IVF was a breakthrough for women with cancer who couldn’t conceive.”
“But within a decade it was commercialized and today it’s a multi-billion dollar industry.”
“Some even argue it’s irresponsible not to use embryo editing in IVF.”
“That's how fast these things move from medical emergency to a mass marketed product.”
She concludes by asking whether just because man can play God—should he?
“Fertility rates are in a freefall. Natural motherhood is under attack.”
“The artificial solutions are racing ahead with almost no ethical or spiritual guardrails.”
“Just because man likes to play God, does that make him God?”
“Where are all the freedom fighters for protecting women’s rights to healthy natural reproductivity?”
