So, your definition of "attack" has really gone downhill, huh?

Oh no I attacked you.

I'm a horrible, horrible person for ellipsising you.

I thought of that and I'm not even really awake yet.
If you want to rip on the state for lying about conditions or inflating figures, then do that, but don't make the children sound like 1997 Impalas. It's not their fault.

This.
And mostly I think adopting an embryo is value neutral, it's as good or bad as having IVF oneself or having a child in vivo. But it's not at all like adopting an actual child, infant or otherwise. I guess if you see embryo as 'person' you're saving a life.... maybe. There's no guarantee that the embryo would 'take' after all. Which is why IVF parents fertilize so many in the first place, and implant more than one. This shit's expensive and multiple procedures increase the cost significantly.
But 'snowflake' is stupid as is whining about being "PC" when this was nothing of the sort.
