What a wonderful concept. Is there a special community you should live in to get in on this deal?

So far it seems to be working out.

It definitely satirizes the anti-adoption movement. But it also takes aim at all sorts of targets (e.g., homophobia, religious intolerance, PC talk about kids), which made it funny to me.

I had not considered this. Good observation.

Ari is likely correct, the site is just going after a lot of different extreme positions. Personally I had never hard of "Anti-adoption moment" before. Is that for real?

I'm "anti-mosquitoe". Wanna join my cause?


I've also never heard of an anti-adoption movement. I'd have to say I'm against anti-adoption. I think adoption is a good thing.
