    …well…I would say that this isnt the beginjing of a revolution as revolution typical require substantial action from the majority of the populations that leada to permanent changes. We saw that with the Haitians, Cubans, North Koreans, Vietnamese, Slavic peoples, Chinese, etc… during EACH OF THEIR respective revolutions. And surveys from like last year show that most people either already have children or plan on having chilldren eventually. If you indicate that youre chilfree or a regretful parent today in most places on the planet theyll either stone you, misunderstand you, or turn you into a pariah.

    I feel like what falling birth rates and falling sex rates indicate is that there is a potential for revolution to eventually be initiated not that a revolution has already initiated. I feeo like there is a potential for us to initiate a revolution that normalizes the childfree lifestyle for ALL types of peoples globally. And yes it will also normalize access to birth conntrols methods, abortion, and adequate sex education.

    When the majirity of people start reporting in studies and surveys that their main reason of apprehensiveness towards having children is that ‘they are afraid of the direction thst the planet and humanity are going in’ and ‘the financial and chronological costs of raising a child is too expensive’ AND they substantiate a substantial apprehensiveness towards birthing any children ? Then and only then will I believe that a childfree revolution is happening and its basis for happening is that most people want to end this climste change-ignoring , capitalistic dystopia. …I havent seen such a thing happen yet… but I will remain hopeful. 🤟🏿

    but thanks for the video anyways🤟🏿
