I’m fine with this. Honestly the biggest mistake Democrats made in the 2000’s was alienating rural Democrats by requiring them to memorize and recite a urban coastal catechism preoccupied with coastal, big-city issues rather than focusing on representing their communities.
I agree and that's why I'm warming up to Walz, especially the more I hear him talk. He brings those economic issues front and center. "Call me what you want but I just want to feed some kids."

I'm not sure I would say plenty. There are certainly some, but I would say it's pretty few. The affinity you will have for your child is basically impossible to relate to someone else, it just has to be experienced to be truly understood.
That said, this is in no way saying people should all have kids. I firmly believe it has to be the most serious decision of your life and everyone needs to consider it extremely deeply before committing to it. If you aren't prepared to give up some of yourself for it, then absolutely don't do it, as you are doing a disservice to yourself, your kid, and the planet.
I also believe there are way too many fucking humans already, so there's that too.
On your last sentence, that is where these people expose themselves.
On one hand, they say we (America) need a higher birth rate for maintenance. (They may not be wrong, BTW.) Then, they'll tell you that we need to curb immigration. "America is full!" That's them telling you that they only want a certain type of children.

Setting aside that both groups try to convince themselves that their path is best, which is normal human group psychology, does it actually strike you as interesting that the with kids group tries to convince the without kids group to join them but not vice versa?
"You should have kids" seems like a pretty obviously more reasonable and socially acceptable thing to say than "you should murder your children."
"You'll regret not having kids" should be pushed back with "do you regret having them?"
There are plenty of people that regret having kids. They just never say so publicly.

Neither of us wanted kids and want them even less for every day that goes by. We also have dozens of friends just like us and we have wonderful lives.)
That being said, we're not offended by what he's saying. We just think he's stupid. It's like your 8 year old arguing with you. Why get upset about it? Everyone like me has ran across this guy dozens of times. They're perfectly normal and then they have kids which makes them think they're on a higher plane of existence. In reality, they're just the same person they were before but now just arrogant. We hear all the same phrases like "you'll regret it one day," or "who will take care of you when you're old" or "you don't know what you're missing," blah, blah, blah. The people with kids are always trying to convince the people without kids. It's never the other way around. It's like they're trying to convince themselves.
Having kids doesn't make Vance original or a deep thinker. His views about it make him a walking cliche and it's one I've seen repeated over the years.

What kind are those? Snakeskin it looks like? Do you remember the model name like they have for everything else?
I did the same thing you did. I got fitted in the store in Oklahoma City, they didn't have the exact size so they just shipped them to my house. Very easy to deal with.
Their apparel lines are also sharp looking. I still like the western look. The problem is most of the people that try it look like bro country dick heads like that ass hat Jason Aldean with his stupid broken straw hat. They look like some youth minister in some non dom church.

Walz might not look the part but the dude has charisma and speaks like average people. I'm really starting to think he should be the pick. I still like Kelly because of electoral math but Walz slaps or whatever the kids say now.

Unlike Vance or whoever, Walz is an actual populist.

Gov. Walz was just on MSNBC and killed it.
He is exactly who we need on the ticket.
I’m thinking that the Talking Heads on MSNBC agree - and are making sure he is on often enough to up his chances of Veep selection.
He's Clintonesque (Bill) in how he simply explains the issues and how they directly impact average people's lives.

Likely being triggered because they were called weird as kids.

Cross Cooper off the list
Thought he would have been a good pick but they all are. Who is realistically left on the island? Kelly, Bashears, and Walz?

But yeah, this "weird" thing is landing because it's true. Literally everyone has THAT person on FB or something and they're a little off.
