They were not wrong at all if their goal was to stem all of what you listed. They just knew from the beginning that all of what they said is not true. What they were saying was a lie.
The Population Council, eugenics freaks, and other yellow menace panickers were funded by the very same people who were running natalist policies in the West, and were trying to ban abortion, and women rights movements.
It's not correct to call them "Malthusians." The best name for them will be Luddites, and massive beneficiaries of economic status quo classes.
- someperson 6y agoYou're making a big accusation / conspiracy theory: that the proponents of "population bomb" arguments were also domestically anti-abortion and womens rights to increase the number of births in the West and decrease it in Asia (and presumably, Africa) due to reasons of race and racism. Such a comment needs a lot more supporting evidence to be considered anything but an outlandish conspiracy theory.
