Hedenius posted:Hot take from me: how about everyone worried about “overpopulation” just kill themselves to help alleviate the problem? But I somehow have the feeling that they don’t consider themselves a part of the problem. It’s always some guy in China or India. are you suggesting that the actual “solution” to “overpopulation” is for everyone who’s worried about people who are worried about “overpopulation” to kill everyone who’s worried about “overpopulation” to help alleviate the problem of an overpopulation of people “worried” about overpopulation?

If we give everyone first world levels of living standards and consumption they too can stop making children at the same rate we've reached, overpopulation solved.

I mean it seems mostly like a sane take. Or at least getting really close to but missing the point. The blurb is super clickbaityquote:Together, these books paint a bleak picture but also offer a weird kind of comfort. They assure me that the tension and guilt I feel as a working mother isn’t something I can relieve on my own or even with support from my family-focused husband, fabulous nanny, dear circle of sister-moms, and deeply empathetic boss and colleagues. It will take an entire society (perhaps one a little more like Sweden’s) to truly ease the burden. very privileged take not withstanding

No but you see if we let everyone in China or India live like Americans, they will destroy the planet with their overconsumption!!!! Only the Westerner can live in such excess and not doom the planet, everyone else will just have to deal with it!!!!

I like the take I got yesterday where they were lamenting the fact the "Earth's biocapacity" could only sustain a quality-of-life "comparable to Cuba's" at our current levels of population, so therefore you really had to reduce the population or else.

the people complaining about overpopulation always have a far greater carbon footprint than anyone living in a developing country so it’s only logical for them to “go first” so to speak but obviously they want to genocide the poors so they get to keep living their unsustainable lifestyles

Shalebridge Cradle posted:More carbon pollution comes from 330 million americans than any country except china, and they have 1.4 billion people and population controls in place already. Talking about overpopulation in regards to climate change is dumb as hell, because it a very few specific first world culprits that are doing most of the damage. I believe everyone should have a decent, first-world standard of living and that is not possible with the number of people on the planet Shalebridge Cradle posted:Fair enough, but the entire EU has 518 million people and still only makes 70% of the pollution the US does. It actually has less than half the pollution per capita of the US. In fact per capita basically every major country except Canada, Australia, and Saudi Arabia is below the US in carbon pollution. yeah I'm not a Malthusian Hedenius posted:Hot take from me: how about everyone worried about “overpopulation” just kill themselves to help alleviate the problem? But I somehow have the feeling that they don’t consider themselves a part of the problem. It’s always some guy in China or India.
