The people that promote climate doom want their genes to propagate with abundance of resources, and are trying to convince the rest of the world to stop having kids.
- astrange 3y agoI don't think that's their motivation, but either way they're wrong, as resources aren't used per-person and reducing the population will not give them more resources. Rather less, as there will be less people to invent new more productive ways to use them. Lot of places on Earth deforested themselves with much smaller populations than they have now, because they cut down all the trees to make firewood.
- systemvoltage 3y agoYes, it’s ironic. There is no explicit direct motivation but through indirect effects of current zeitgeist: I personally know many people in Bay Area that drive multiple 600hp+ gasoline cars with child seats, no less, but are frothing with climate doom and gloom. Interestingly and again ironically, the people that actually care about climate are the country folk. Ask them and talk to them. They love their neighborhoods. They love the mountains. They don’t waste. They don’t spill. The absolute moronic population in places like Berkeley and SF want to propel the rot they’ve created in the name of whatever idiotic ideology they have going on. Irresponsible and relentless recycling like a goddamn religion without understanding the net effect of recycling. Don’t ever question, you’ll get spit on. God, I despise the laptop class people myself being part of it.
