Could 'the horrors of parenting' be something that is promoted to younger people, to discourage then from having children? A sort of governance marketing to help address the perceived issue that there are simply too many people?
- HeatrayEnjoyer 5mo agoThere's an accelerating population crisis. Who would have motive to push birth rates lower than they even are, and how would they "push them"?
- michaelmrose 5mo agoThe world has enough people and can trivially import some from places with too many to places with too few.
- lukan 5mo agoThat process has some social complexities, because as it turns out, human cultures are not all the same.
- lukan 5mo agoGovernments usually rather have homegrown babies, where they can influence everything from day one, than importing different ones. So .. if this is a conspiracy, it would have come from a private entiety (like club of rome, who lamented overpopulation a long time ago). But I don't think so. Lamenting and whining has just become a sport for some.
