4 ways commercial #surrogacy violates the rights and well-being of children.
1. Commodification
2. Intentionally broken families
3. Motherlessness
4. Mental and emotional trauma

"Best practice in adoption makes every effort to keep the child w her birth parents, then carefully screens intended parents. Surrogacy inverts that- it intentionally separates children from their birth mother & conducts no vetting of intended parents."
“Unlike adoption, which functions as an institution to protect children’s needs, commercial surrogacy functions as a market to meet the desires of adults.”

Glenn Greenwald’s sex tape leaked. Within hours, right-wing elites raced to defend him.

Candace Owens. Megyn Kelly. Charlie Kirk, among others.

When progressives do this, they denounce.

But Glenn is “on our side.”

🧵Let’s talk about the cost of conservative hypocrisy.
Megyn Kelly slammed Biden’s non-binary official Sam Brinton for being a “diversity hire” when he was caught stealing luggage.

No pass. No nuance.

But a gay journalist who sometimes sides w conservatives? Big pass, because he's a "friend of many years."
Owens condemned Kevin Spacey,
Andrew Gillum, Lil Nas X, asking
"Why has 'oh, but I'm gay' become a default excuse for immorality?"

But there's no critique of Greenwald's behavior, just that he is "one of the most important and honest voices of our time."

Despite @TimTebow's statements, fathers are NOT the most likely to sexually victimize children.

Why being raised by their biological father is one of the safest places a child can be 🧵
Tebow wrote, “where the relationship between the victim & the offender was known to law enforcement, fathers were the highest category of offender”.

He gave the impression that a child’s own father is the most dangerous person in their life, which isn’t true. Image
Let’s look at the source he cites:
the Federal Sentencing of Child Pornography: Production Offenses (October 2021).

It distinguishes between bio fathers and other categories.

Of victimizers it finds:
•Biological Parent: 18.2%
•Stepparent/Guardian/Parent’s Partner: 14.2% Image

Facts about mother-loss, father-loss and divorce that progressives want to bury but never will- from my interview with @jordanbpeterson 🧵

1. Kids don't want a "mother figure" they want their mother.

"30 years later, the impact of her absence is still felt every day."Image
2. Maternal separation after birth inflicts a #primalwound.

"I have a terrible feeling of loss, longing, pain in my heart towards the unknown mother [I never] ever met."Image
3. A butch woman cannot be a father.

Girl raised by lesbians heartbroken watching her friend dance with her adoptive father.

"I was deprived… each time I went [to the school square dances] with my loving, masculine, adoptive, mother, I felt sad during those car rides home."Image

The Conservative, Pro-Life Case Against Surrogacy 🧵 Image
First, surrogacy critique must stem from defending the child. Bioethics and feminist opposition is strong, but can fall flat when all parties — the egg seller, surrogate, and commissioning parents — all love and consent to the arrangement. Image
A conservative position rejects surrogacy based on the self-evident, natural rights of the child:

• Right to life
• Right to their mother and father
• Right to be born free and not bought and sold.

The child never consent to the intentional loss of his or her mother. Image

Phoenix Ikner shot 8 people at FSU this week.

Media blames guns.

But here’s what they skip: his parents spent 16 years in a bitter custody battle, his mom abducted him to Norway, and he changed his name to escape it all.

Broken homes are the common thread in mass shooters. 🧵 Image
