“This was the part the president left out of her speech this morning. She said that everyone in the old country got rid of their baby girls, but this is a lie. The rich could afford to pay the steep fines and the poor weren’t afraid to hide them in places the officials didn’t want to look. The president doesn’t want to remind people of this. She wants them to believe that obedience is the only option. Like all leaders, her reign depends on it.”
