    In reality overpopulation is a myth and rather population decline is a real concern in many countries.

    Now of course we can talk about who this concerns and why (under the current system? It concerns those who need workers to exploit, white supremacists looking to “overturn” the “great replacement”, in some cases both, and it also concerns the aging population that will end up with very little support, something which wouldn’t be as big an issue if we had stronger communities, but alienation and all that jazz, as well as the fewer workers who will remain to keep the economy going for minimal pay as they get bossed around by AI, because capitalism), and also about who pushes the overpopulation myth and why, but the bottom line is - the population isn’t and never has been the problem (we already produce enough food to sustain everyone alive today and then some), it is capitalism and it’s dependence on creating infinite growth in a finite world, at the expense of everyone and everything on the planet (themselves included except for the handful who will end up in orbit or whatever. And then die) that is the problem, and what we need to get rid of if we want to stop this dystopian spiral.

    But that would send me in to a rant, and we wouldn’t want that…
    😳

      So what you are saying is that given the fact that the world will not just abandon capitalism, overpopulation is indeed a real non-myth problem.

        No, but thanks for proving you barely read my reply, let alone any of the articles I linked in it, save me wasting my breath on such a loyal bootlicker!

        Perhaps you should try reading that again, properly, before attempting to insert words in to (or remove them from) my keyboard again, and showing off your laziness, if not wilful ignorance:

        (we already produce enough food to sustain everyone alive today and then some)

        Lmfao, you were convinced you “had” me there, weren’t you, clown… 🤣🤣

          Oh no, I wasn’t “convinced I had you”, I knew you wouldn’t critically think about what you said. I posted that for the benefit of others. I’m sure you’re already aware of the many articles and scientific journals discussing the problem of overpopulation but you intentionally choose to ignore them to push your narrative.
