Mentally Unstable Democrat Politician Sterilises Herself to Gain Attention and Praise

Someone got in touch with me last week to tell me that every prediction I’d made in my book Woke Eugenics: How Social Justice is a Mask for Social Darwinism had come true. The reason? A fertile, female, Democrat member of the Michigan House of Representatives had announced that she had sterilised herself in response to Donald Trump being re-elected as president.

The Narcissistic Laurie Pohutsky Posing with Her Favourite Colors

‘My argument in Woke Eugenics was that mutants have taken over Western culture and duly push people in a maladaptive direction. This acts as selection pressure in favour of those who are genetically conservative, meaning that they, and their healthy genes, will be the future. However, the death cult of Woke — where you must resign from the gene pool for the sake of the environment, for example — will also suck in certain psychological types who may be only slightly mutated.

This is what we are seeing with Laurie Pohutsky, the Michigan House of Representatives’ member for the 17^th District. Her sterilisation in itself, however, is not an example of “Woke Eugenics” in action. That is exemplified in the fact that, despite being married, she is childless at 36. The sterilisation is indicative, instead, of the kind of personality type that gets sucked into extreme Wokeness.

Laurie Pohutsky, who has strongly campaigned in favour of “Trans Rights” including that the school shouldn’t have to tell parents if their child changes its “gender identity,” announced at a rally on the steps of Michigan state capitol that: “I underwent surgery to ensure that I never have to navigate a pregnancy in Donald Trump’s America.” She claimed to have done this because Trump’s election meant that she was, consequently, uncertain about whether she’d be able to access contraception in the future. I don’t think there’s any question of Republicans banning condoms, the coil or the pill, so we can only assume that “contraception” is a euphemism for “abortion.” It, perhaps, says rather a lot about Pohusky’s attitude to human life that she should, on some level, regard abortion as a form of contraception.

It’s also rather hysterical. When the federal right to abortion was over-turned, the State of Michigan immediately passed a law guaranteeing access to abortion. Pohutsky seems to hold to the paranoid belief that Trump will somehow pass a nationwide ban on abortion. I find it hard to accept that she genuinely believes this. Moreover, Trump will only be president for four years, so why get sterilised at all? The implication is that she is convinced that Trump will institute some kind of, from her perspective, “extreme right-wing dictatorship.”

But, in a sense, this is all irrelevant. Pohutsky is married and is 36 years-old. Realistically, if she was going to have children, if she wanted to have children, she’d have had them by now. Her husband, who is also a political activist, has publicly supported what she’s done. Clearly, he’s not too fussed about having children either. Laurie Pohutsky is also openly bisexual. Indeed, she told reporters that she and her husband, who are both extremely busy with all manner of left-wing campaigning, had decided against having children.

Pohutsky’s Husband, Nathan Triplett, President of the Michigan ACLU.
[Pohutsky:] “I said, ‘I’m sorry, I guess maybe I should have not said this.’”
[Triplett:] “He stopped me, and he said, ‘No, you said exactly what you needed to say. I know why you said it.’”

It is this decision, therefore, that is the example of “Woke Eugenics,” not Pohutsky’s actual sterilisation. Having imbibed the feminist idea that males and females are somehow equal and must both work, she has placed her career well above passing on her genes. Having absorbed the Woke idea that conservatives will destroy the various “marginalised” minorities with whom she identifies, she has put political campaigning above replicating herself. Being hyper-individualistic and self-centred, as we will see, she probably lacks the desire to nurture a baby. They do, after all, make you think about somebody other than yourself. Being highly mentally unstable and so regarding herself as “marginalised,” she identifies with other “marginalised” groups and puts fighting for them above passing on her genes.

Why? Studies have indicated that the moral circle of leftists is very different from that of conservatives. On average, conservatives are group-oriented — they care about the genetic groups to which they belong — so the world becomes a series of circles around self. You love your family more than your kin, your kin more than your ethny, your ethny more than your race, your race more than species, and so on.

And Pohutsky is not alone:

While Republican colleagues of Ms Pohutsky’s in the Michigan legislature have posted snarky comments about her online, several women have reached out in the past 24 hours “sort of relieved to hear somebody else say what they had felt… and what had led them to make their decision around, you know, a surgical option.”

“I was hoping that if there were people who were concerned or sort of on the fence or, you know, just hadn’t heard anybody say, yes, ‘I’ve been there too. This is okay for you to make this decision.’”

Some of those women said they were now calling their doctors to book their own sterilisation.

“So I guess in that regard, it did what I wanted it to do.”

But even for those who do decide to permanently render themselves infertile, finding an appointment may not be easy.

One woman told her that she was unable to book a consultation as “so many people are trying” after Mr Trump’s victory.

Liberals combine being mentally unstable with being individualists; they are adapted to an unpredictable environment in which they are out for themselves. Being Neurotic (high in negative feelings), they fear a fair fight, so they virtue-signal their supposed kindness in order to manipulate their way into power over their group, which they wish to control because they are paranoid. They identify, in terms of their moral circle, with people who are genetically distant from self. This identification allows them to collaborate with outsiders in order to attain power over their own group. Thus, Democrat Whites will care more about Blacks than about other Whites.

It is this underlying mental instability which gives us the real insight into Pohutsky’s psychology. One of the ways you deal with being Neurotic is to adopt a Narcissistic “false self” in which tell yourself that you are perfect, unique and, of course, you are entitled. This latter trait reflects the low Agreeableness that is found in both Narcissism and leftism. In an unstable ecology, you could be wiped out at any time; co-operation may not be repaid.  Studies that I explore in Woke Eugenics have shown that Narcissism is correlated with being Woke. You crave Narcissistic supply — being told that you really are wonderful. How do you get this? In a leftist culture, you competitively signal how left-wing you are and people praise you accordingly. This runaway Wokeness can reach a point, naturally, where you declare your commitment in very extreme ways, such as stating, “I will leave America” or “I will sterilise myself.” This Woke ostentatiousness also reassures you, to yourself, that you really are morally superior and just plain perfect.

Of course, if one digs beneath the surface, such declarations are often hollow. The Hollywood actress does not actually move abroad, or, if she does, it’s not very difficult for her because she’s extremely rich and likely has property around the world. The Democrat politician, who has presumably been successfully using contraception throughout her marriage, likely has more money stashed away than if she had children, and she had decided not to have children anyway, so the sterilisation is purely symbolic. In reality, with Pohutsky, what we are seeing is something closely related to Narcissism; Histrionic Personality Disorder. Such people, usually women (80% of sufferers are female), are theatrical, flirtatious, have an excessive need for attention and have a profound desire for approval.

The headline about Pohutsky in the UK’s Daily Telegraph was “I’m a Democrat politician. This is why I sterilised myself after Trump’s election.” Such a headline simply plays into her Histrionic Narcissism. A more accurate headline would be “Histrionic Narcissistic Democrat, Who Doesn’t Want Children Anyway, Sterilises Herself to Gain Attention and Narcissistic Reinforcement.” But, certainly, her resignation from the gene pool, quite independent of the vain sterilisation, would be a prime example of “Woke Eugenics.” Liberals are born traitors and are (relative to conservatives) mentally and physically ill, liberalism is significantly genetic, and liberals are gradually removing themselves from the gene pool. . . . Let us not stand in their way.
