“Population collapse due to low birthrates is a much bigger risk to civilisation than global warming.”
Hell, I find the very use of the word “collapse” in that sentence to be a ridiculous exaggerated way to describe population growth slowing, or even stopping.
I also can’t think of how such a thing would be a “risk” to civilization. Risking what, exactly?
Overall, kinda sounds like the inverse, equally-weird version of those people who make a big deal of declaring that human beings should all die and that we’re a plague on the planet, etc.
It is weird, it’s also the leading rhetoric for Musk and other conservative/alt right influencers that spread the message of the trad wife and the prerequisite purity required of a wife. Also how tattoos corrupt that “purity”
That population collapse quote was from Musk himself trying to downplay the environmental issues we all face as a species.
Okay. That’s totally irrelevant, though. There isn’t even a caption on this image that implies any political motivation at all.
I’ve had several left-leaning friends who hated tattoos and the idea of them, as well as right-leaning friends who love them and literally fantasize about getting the next one as soon as their latest one is done. Hell, during the brief period I tried using dating apps, it was the most aggressively-tattooed people that I recall being more likely to have something pro-Trump right at the top of their profiles.
The bottom line is, a lot of people think being covered in tattoos looks unattractive or even repulsive, and they are definitely NOT “all bunched up in one corner” politically. Hence “that’s a pretty big assumption”.
Edit: Reverse searched the image, and the only result is from a generic anti-tattoo group. Knock me over with a feather.
Alright.
…can you be more specific?
Uh…children do in fact need to be raised…?
I feel like you’re either not asking quite what you intend to, or I’m missing something.
Are you pronatalist? Specifically do you agree with the statement,
“Population collapse due to low birthrates is a much bigger risk to civilisation than global warming.”
I don’t think so, but how do you define it?

Bro, this you? Biiiiiiiiig energy switch when I mentioned Musk. Curious, it’s so easy to assume your politics.
Correct, @horse_battery_staple
