Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

So in the past, people were sort of pushed into mariage and to have kids. And this went on for centuries actually. This caused that even if you didn't want to have kids, you had some. Humanity drag those people's genes even if they didn't want to. But now, with more free world, we sort of get rid of those people, the only ones who copulate will be the people who want to. And in the next generation we can expect more people who want to copulate and so on and so on. Good

This isn't a problem for the future, this is already happening right now. At least in Germany. Elder care is atrocious. Old people who didn't buy a house or similar are piss poor. And it's getting worse.

As far as I know this is the worst in developed nations as rich people tend to have less children.
