It’s disturbing, how many people eagerly embrace eugenics and anti-natalism as long as they can cite a left-wing cause like ecology as their reason

Gee, I dunno, maybe everyone having 3 or more kids in the long term will lead to overpopulation issues we cannot resolve even with improved technology.

Is there a workable plan to get to that point or is it a theoretical idea like communism

This study is dangerously stupid.

We are rapidly running out of resources for survival.

Global fresh water demand will exceed supply by 40% by 2030 and 90% of topsoil is at risk of depletion by 2050.

We are already over capacity on fresh water demand for the amount of humans alive on this planet.

Top soil is what food grows in. Without top soil we can't grow food.

Billions of people will die this century. The planet cannot support any more people. Don't have kids.
