  • I added it less than 5 minutes after I posted it, since I figured I wrote too little and wanted to make my point clearer.

    Maybe I wouldn’t have been so argumentative if you wouldn’t have been condescending in the first place.

    And yes, the idea of overpopulation comes from false premises about an exponential growth in human population which is very improbable to happen because birth rates in the global North are declining and so will those in the global South once children stop dropping like flies because of inhuman conditions forced on them by the powers that be.

    If I am so argumentative it is because overpop theory is rooted in racist arguments and is in my opinion a damaging idea to one’s view of the world and I am so tired of seeing everyone taking it for granted when really there’s nothing granted about it. It subtracts dialectical energy from actual issues and is ultimately just capitalist propaganda in my view


  • Are your implying infinite growth of Human population? Are you implying we don’t have enough resources for the 9 to 10 billion people peak estimated by 2100? Because it’s not gonna grow larger than that, the data is skewed because countries that formerly had a lot of infant deaths used to compensate with higher birth rates, but with living conditions rising babies don’t die as often but it takes one or two generations before people catch on to that and stop making babies like crazy.

    I don’t think you understand that overpopulation theory is bogus pseudoscience
