In a world where horoscopes have become as vital as a morning cup of coffee, it seems the intricacies of astrology may be influencing some deeply troubling thought processes. Picture this: a mother-to-be clutching her pregnancy test results while dabbing her eyes. No, it’s not because of an unplanned child coming into the world; it’s the revelation that her baby is a Scorpio. Suddenly, visions of an impulsive teen rebel with a penchant for wearing only black and asking “why?” fill her mind. Is it any wonder she’s contemplating her options?
The thought process here is baffling—a veritable Potemkin village of woke ethics where star signs dictate our decisions about life and death. Should parents get a “choose your child” menu based on zodiac signs? “I’ll have the Capricorn, please, with a side of responsibility and ambition, hold the emotional turmoil.” Conversations about abortion that revolve around genetic tests, astrological compatibilities, and personal preferences invoke more than a few raised eyebrows. But in the ever-expanding realm of progressivism, why should any of it surprise us?
To rub salt in the wound is the audacity of this kind of reasoning making its way to the debate stage—or rather, not making it there. Who could forget the day when candidates squared off against each other, drawing on topics like infrastructure, education reform, or tax codes, only to veer into a metaphysical rabbit hole discussing whether the fetus displays typical Aries traits? These questions remain sidelined, not because they lack relevance, but because they challenge the very foundations of the arguments that some progressive thinkers like to establish under the pretense of “choice.”
Much of this seemingly absurd line of thinking stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of life. After all, a child with a strong Virgo placement might be just what’s needed to bring organization to the chaotic lives of their parents—spiritual leaders, healers, or simply excellent accountants. Discarding lives due to astrological discrepancies opens a Pandora’s box of moral ambiguity, leaving many to wonder where the line is drawn between playing God and engaging in cosmic roulette. Whose horoscope matters? The parents, or the child who doesn’t get a say in the matter at all?
Yet, while some conservative thinkers might get anxious over the direction of the discussion, others can rest easy knowing that a well-crafted, wittily shaped argument can draw attention to this surreal scenario. At the end of the day, if America is headed into the astrological matrix, it might be the perfect opportunity to win the argument rather than the votes. Because let’s face it: debating whether you can snuff out a potential life based not on its desires or potential, but simply because of the month it was born in, speaks volumes about where progressive ideology currently finds itself. And amidst the chaos of signs and symbols, one astrological truth remains—if we don’t address the absurdities head-on, we’re just asking for astrology to truly run the show.
