    Well, that’s why Western right wingers look to Japan. But the difference is that, Western right wingers are looking to regress back into the olden days when women were baby-churners, whereas I don’t hear from Japan wanting the same (there are some but they are not significant enough to sway public opinion).

      They want the fantasy of a one income household but aren’t willing to increase wages to make it reality.

      The right wing uses this as a dog whistle to rally the uneducated.

        Yeah, we both would love to be able to be a one income household, but it’s just but feasible.

      I’d like to take the part of the baby churning plan where a homemaker is part of each household. Like, subtract the misogyny where it’s automatically assumed it would be the woman but households with children take a lot of work.
