bad day posted:I have been toying around with a story that involves a character wiping out a large part of the human population to save the environment. This isn't a new idea - it's spawned a James Bond movie and a Batman villain - some people think it's a real thing, even. by the way, dropping asteroids on things will wreck the climate for a while due to all the dust it kicks up.

GBS Ambassador posted:Wiping out a third of the world population whether through natural or manmade causes wont stop future generations from reproducing at a crazy pace for survival. To lower the population in the long-run involves nation-wide systemic policies that minimizes incentives for producing children such as discouraging rural living and concentrating majority of the population into high-density cities to eliminate the need for children over manual labor, higher incomes that encourages people to put off having children to pursue and advance their careers, and subsidized quality education for everyone so that people can actually invent ways to save the environment. also educating fe-males and getting them into the work force no matter how loud neckbeards bitch and moan about it

Geniasis posted:They're also going to have about 30 million more men than women by 2020, which is seen as somewhat less than ideal. The pragmatic solution is to subsidise gay sex.

A Wizard of Goatse posted:Which was about establishing the strongest possible political ties and order of succession, not genotypes, any more than old money sneering at parvenus and the help alike or droning on about their Mayflower ancestry is eugenics. They weren't trying to breed an unstoppable race of superkings, nor eliminate the inferior traits that made peasants lumpen and prone to actually working for a living, they just wanted to keep the crown in the family and claimed ancestry from previous rulers as legitimacy to rule. Eugenicists, who only existed as a meaningful concept post-Darwin and Mendel, woulda sterilized the entire Habsburg line when it started producing prognathous jaws; feudal nobility woulda gibbeted eugenicists as heretics. hmmmm this eugenics thing sounds cool and good
