That implies that the non richest 10% is happy with that and aren't trying to catch up with the richest 10%. That is completely untrue. The idea behind decreasing the world population is that a smaller population could all live in modern comfort. I have a feeling that this comic was written by someone very much in the richest 10%.
Now please explain how you create a smaller population that doesn't reek of eugenics, and you'll see the problem.
Nazis also wanted a smaller population so that the privileged few that remained could have a higher quality of life.
Education. People tend to have fewer kids the more educated they become. Give everyone in the world top class educations, and the population will naturally decline.
Theres always the quiverful movement and similar shit to worry about. But im actually fine sterilizing them when their at fhe hospital for kid number 2. Becuase fuck the quiverful movement they want to drag us back to the fucking stone age.
The quiver-full people tend to be poorly educated, and tend to fall out of the idea once better educated.
Im aware but the problem is their super fucking insular when it comes to interacting with other groups. Anything that aint modern regressive christianity they practically hide from.
