I always find adding “declining birth rates” to the list of things to be alarmed about, as quite curious in a world that is too crowded and still growing

Demographically it’s not anything to laugh about. Here in the US we’re already short millions of workers required to pay in to things like Social Security and further economic growth. Look at the example of Japan - fewer young people means stagnation, stress on safety nets 🙂

Sure, valid points, but we need to figure out a way to adapt. Meanwhile the earth has a finite and declining amount of fresh water, limited ability to produce food and we constantly reduce farmland. A continually growing population isn’t sustainable either

If only there were some simple solution to that... Oh wait, there is! It'a called "immigration," maybe you've heard of it?

Of course it is and I favor expanding Immigration, acting as if that is a solution in this environment is asinine though, haven’t you heard what’s happening? Acting as if I don’t know that already is ridiculous. Decking birth rates are an issue

I had a coworker, make this argument recently, and after deconstructing how stupid it was, it ultimately came down to “but the Muslims!” These people are brain dead. they cling onto the things that are truly abhorrent and disgusting. Just Christian fascism and fear mongering.

It goes along with their replacement theory nonsense.

Especially when it is their system they put in place that is leading to couples opting not to have children

EVERYTHING IMPORTANT @crazynate999.bsky.social

They always conveniently leave out the word “white” when mentioning their fear of declining birth rates

“Cultural collapse” is the new red herring they’re using as a placeholder now btw for “white”, for anyone who’s curious as to what to look out for.

Has it occurred to you that some places in the world have specific problems, and other places have different ones?
