Your posts have been wild, but the last statement here is the biggest stretch of all.
There's a difference between actively eliminating a group of people, and that same group of people choosing not to have kids due to the requirements of "success" in their own culture.
Even though I don't agree with you in the slightest, I somewhat sympathize with you simply because I think you truly believe your perception is a reflection of reality as the saying goes. When it feels like the world is against you or apathetic towards you, that's a terrible thing.
Let me preface my point with this. I'm not white, but I am 'Western' culturally speaking. Unlike you seem to be able to do, I can acknowledge the flaw of western culture and still appreciate the positives like scientific and technological progress.
Ultimately, this is the truth of the matter. For centuries, Western European cultures have actively sought conquest of new frontiers with wealth and power being the two primary motivators. This set the stage for our modern trade network, technology, and capacity for migration.
The decision makers did not ask or care about the endgame of this activity, though. As wealth grew for the western world, it also grew for its average citizen, and like a drug, we have grown addicted to wealth.
White populations are in decline because they were one of the first groups to largely achieve the manifestation of the idea that "Anyone can be (financially) successful"
In the modern world, if your job doesn't pay you well enough, the only ways to maintain this success are to not have kids, have less kids or have kids later. You maintain this success culturally by making sure the few kids you do have know to follow the same line of reasoning.
Surely you aren't going to suggest that native non whites are forcefully suppressing white births? Or that immigrants are doing the same?
If you removed the immigrant or brown factor, you'd have the same situation as Japan with an aging population and no one to replace it.
The culture that led you to your current state, is also the culture that will be your undoing. I don't know what the solution is, but it's very clear that when financial success is the primary goal of individuals and infinite growth is the primary goal of governments and other institutions, population decline follows. Growth can always be greater, but the amount of time in a day grows ever shorter, and limits of human physical and mental stamina has a hard ceiling.

And there's a difference between not importing the third world into the West, and importing the third world into the West. >I think you truly believe your perception is a reflection of reality as the saying goes. Because it is reality. It goes against the narrative but sometimes reality gets in the way of narratives. >In the modern world, if your job doesn't pay you well enough, the only ways to maintain this success are to not have kids, have less kids or have kids later. This is not true since in "the modern world" in the West, those who make the least are the most likely to have kids. >If you removed the immigrant or brown factor, you'd have the same situation as Japan with an aging population and no one to replace it. Which is perfectly fine for Japan and their progeny. It may even be the optimal result since Japan has an overcrowding issue in their cities. Suggesting that Japan should import third world immigrants because they'll have a population decline is the exact issue at hand here. Japan doesn't need nor want immigrants, if that slows their growth that's fine for them. At least they have a homeland for their people. >The culture that led you to your current state, is also the culture that will be your undoing. Not at all. Maybe the world is overpopulated, housing in the West is critically low in supply, the labor market is historically underpaid right now, etc. Maybe a slowing, or slightly reducing the population is fine as long as there's a homeland for Europeans to turn to. The "undoing" of the West is importing people who do not share a basis in Western culture. It's also to self-hating Whites who want to accelerate the death of the West by importing backwards cultures. THAT is the undoing, not the slow decline. The West is the only area where the natives are currently being replaced with foreigners, and the natives are actively being denied a homeland by leftists. Leftism is killing the West. Not the current state you described.
