I'd like to parse out the underlying ideology of Vance's "childless cat lady" statements.
He proposes that people who do not have children have no investment in the future.
The underlying ideology of such a statement reflects a selfishness so complete it cannot see itself. And that foundational narcissism pervades the GOP and its voters.
Firstly, many people cannot have children biologically. It's not a choice for them. For them, Vance's stance is eugenicist - much like the Nazis. 1/
