29 - Kevin Dolan (Bennett's Phylactery): Rebooting Natalism for the 21st Century
I’m joined by cofounder and organizer of the 2023 Natal Conference in Austin, TX, Kevin Dolan.
We talk about the conception of a conference to promote having more babies, the various religious and techno-optimist factions of the Natalist Movement, environmental detriments to fertility, how we’re radically undervaluing motherhood, thought-terminating technical solutions to the fertility crisis, surrogacy, expanding freedom of association as the key to self-replicating communities, like-minded community as a solution for the alienation of motherhood, and setting sights on Natal Conference 2024.
“It’s not about stopping the rain, it’s about building a boat.” - Kevin Dolan
