There's been all kinds of comments here about how Malthus' thesis was wrong. I'd agree that was the case if we could get the vast majority of humanity on the same page and actually deal with the many crises that currently face us (climate, food, extinction,etc). But given how we've dealt with the climate crisis up til now and how we handled (or didn't handle) covid, I think Malthus was probably right. I don't think he was even factoring in human nature just carrying capacity (and his calculations there were probably flawed), but it's human nature that's driving the bus.
