    “They love making babies”? White conservative Americans actually do have that culture.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiverfull

    Quiverfull is a Christian theological position that sees large families as a blessing from God.

    I have a white GOP cousin who came from a family with 5 kids, and she has 7 kids of her own. I have a white conservative ex girlfriend who has 6 kids.

        Because they see it as a competition. They want to be the ones to “inherit the earth,” and see other ethnic groups “being fruitful and multiplying” as a threat to their own ethnicity. It’s barely veiled white supremacy supported by warped Christian theology.
