    Just a reminder, you can’t prove they’re not still conscious somewhere in their mind. Brain “dead” is a misnomer because having dead, rotting tissue in your skull will kill you pretty quickly anyway. You would at the very least have to remove the brain and IDK if you can still keep the body alive then.

    Keeping them alive normally honestly sounds like torture if there’s anything resembling a consciousness still in there, this is just slavery.

      A good example would be the astonishing drop in birth rates in post-Soviet countries. Capitalism, by providing no safety nets, no childcare and no community, makes it very difficult and undesirable to have children.

        Plenty of countries have worked hard to provide those things and still have declining birth rates. This take, ignores a lot of the agency that women have won through feminist activism

          Famously feminist paradises like modern Russia, Poland or Ukraine you mean? Don’t make me laugh, the drops in fertility rates in such countries aren’t due to feminism, women now have less rights than 35 years ago in said countries.

            I was talking about Sweden, Finland and Canada. Not saying they are prefect, but i am saying that an increase in rights doesn’t correspond to an increase in fertility

              All of those countries are capitalist, though, how do they invalidate my point about post-Soviet countries?

                You’re the one who connected falling birth rates to safety nets, childcare and community. I was simply providing evidence that those things don’t necessarily translate to an increase in birth rates as might be expected

      It was only proposed in capitalism, so it is.

      I guess it’s implied that somebody else is making a profit out of the pregnancy, since the mother is brain dead. So if it was a normal thing to do you could imagine clinics perhaps, buying brain dead women and then offering surrogate pregnancies. Or maybe I got it wrong?

        No it’s that everything is expensive and life is a lot of work but capitalism can’t make people fall in love so instead it will try to give birth through corpses.

      It’s not. It has nothing to do with capitalism. It’s some other horror.

        Ah yes, the system responsible for the production, allocation and hoarding of every resource and service in our entire civilization, the system that creates every single incentive by which we are motivated or punished, simply must not be responsible for this. It must just be “some other horror.”

        Abusing brain dead people for money is absolutely capitalism

          I guess if you assume the worst in people you can make any story fit any narrative.
