This. I wish more people realised there were about 200 million humans on the planet during the Roman Empire's existence. Nobody was worrying about eugenics or world crises. What I'm worrying about is raising children in a continually prohibitive and hostile world where we sacrifice the quality of life in the name of the environment and financial frugality. What's the point? Where is the incentive to reproduce? Humans will not disappear naturally. Anyone who's seen a Lotka-Volterra model will not be surprised we haven't reached equilibrium. There is no equilibrium. There is no infinite growth.
