The idea that society needs a high birth rate only makes sense if you are a consumer goods company, a boomer hoping someone will buy a house for a much higher price, or planning to conscript people into war.Otherwise, lower population vs national resources will be a major edge. UBI will be cheaper and quality of life will be higher. You can also turn on and off the immigration spigot selectively. ...

Just under 8 million babies were born in China last year. That might sound like a lot, but it's actually not. It's almost half the pre- pandemic figure.Demographers were shocked at this record low birth number, the lowest since records began in 1949, and warned that China's population could be aging at a faster rate than even the most pessimistic forecasts had estimated. At the heart of this baby bust is the fact that there aren't enough young Chinese people getting married. And that really is a result of h ...

Assisted-reproductive technologies accounted for roughly 3% of China’s total births in 2022. In a country desperate for more babies, even that modest share has drawn official attention https://t.co/qAijBUESpl ...

In birth rate discourse, 95% of the alarmists are men, most of whom don’t even have children themselves.From an environmental and societal perspective, decreasing population alleviates environmental pressures, food systems, over-crowding, and enhances quality of life, human rights, and creativity. The fewer children, the more special each one is. The human species will become more like Protoss and less like Zerg.The key is to reject immigration while maintaining low birth rate, and adopt AI/robotics technol ...

RT X Freeze (@XFreeze)Elon Musk shares his biggest concern about Europe and it’s grounded in hard reality"My biggest concern for Europe is that their birth rate is half replacement rateEurope is rapidly becoming with each passing year, older and older with fewer and fewer young people. So I think at a most fundamental level, unless Europe has a birth rate at least roughly equal to replacement rate, it is in population free fall. Population collapse is happening in Europe" ...

Elon Musk"My recommendation really would be: do not delay having a family. Even if things are tough, there's a baby crisis. The birth rate has plummetedThe birth rate in the United States has been below replacement rate since roughly when I was born in 1971. So that's a long time, and it's continued to decline every yearIf there are no humans, that means no humanity. So, something's got to happen to turn around this crazy low birth rate, or we'll simply disappearSo, I think even if things are financially di ...

RT Paul Weston (@PWestoff)This year will see white British births drop below 50% of total births. In the non-white 50% Muslim births account for 80%. Islam is growing 9-times faster than any other racial/religious demographic in England and Wales.Close to parity then. By 2040 white British births are expected to drop below 25%. This high speed change results from the compounding effect of positive Muslim births (2.3 TFR) Vs negative white British births (0.7 TFR).If you wish to see an Islamic Britain you wi ...
