At a plenary meeting of Russia’s State Duma on Tuesday, Russian Health Minister Mikhail Murashko said that women should give birth as early in life as possible rather than pursuing their education and building careers.
Yeah, Russia has massive demographic issues and their very special military operation has caused much of their prospective parents to be killed or flee the country. They need all the births they can get.
That said the population is in that special place thats generally called FUBAR BUNDY.
The population will not recover before generations and will probably stabilise at if not preindustrial levels, at least 1950s, and that's without the war.
Not sure this is the best way to go about repopulation though....
So the men get slaughtered in the trenches and the women are busy with childbearing? Question: Who actually does any work in this Russian utopian society?
Of course it is, it’s the only solution that violent authoritarians produce. Educated women reproduce less and raise good citizens of a democracy. Uneducated teenage mothers that survive and make lots of babies raise children to be soldiers and mothers. They don’t raise their kids to think or improve society.
