Ignoring the genocide-apologist trend, the pandemic did wonders to reduce global warming.., perhaps start taxing more the companies that force back-to-office when they could clearly keep most of their work force at home?
And, eliminate Euclidean zoning in the U.S., so that people can live near where they work, or work near where they live. (Not all of us can do it, or like working from home.)
Yup, mixed zoning would do wonders. Why we don't do that is beyond me...
What genocide? Just sensible reproduction. There's two options. 10 billion people living miserably like during the pandemic. Or maybe 1 billion people being able to live good lives.
What about 2 billion people living pretty-good lives or 9 billion people living less-miserably? That's at least two more options right there.
There are infinite options we start doing fractions! (Please don't)
We can completely solve it with 10 billion 1/2 people
So who should go? You?
I’m pretty sure he said have less children, not start death camps.
I literally said just having less children.
And I'm totally ok to only having between one or zero children myself.
China tried it, didn't go too well... good luck trying it on a global scale...
Chinas problem was also a still very uneducated and traditionalist populace, that insisted on having boys as heirs. Leading to abortions or straight up murder of female infants. That wouldn't really be a global issue I beleive
Derived problems were product of a sexist society should be avoidable, you know, ending sexism...
Or are you supporting that people should be able to want male babies over female ones?
Oooooh, of course, how could i forget? Blame the cis white male and the patriarchy, or course!
Literally the only big problem with china one-child policy, was that sexist parents were practicing selective abortions to ensure that they get one male kid.
No sexism = no problem
