The world is overpopulated

It’s a big problem. There’s just too many people.

Definitely.

I think it is, too.

Over-population by humans is responsible for many of the 'crises' we face, including global warming, species extinction, de-forestation, pollution of oceans and waterways, etc.

But as good, moral gay, I'm doing my part by NOT having children.

One thing nobody can blame white people for.

R4, white people right now are trying to ban abortions and birth control, so ....

The instant beatification of the vilest celebs in the days after they croak has always irked me. He was a fucking asshole and that's all there is to it.

R6, well he was a part of overpopulation. Good riddance.

Melissa Manchester addressed this very thing in her 1975 anthem ‘Just Too Many People’. Do keep up!

by Anonymousreply 9April 21, 2024 4:49 PM

Well Gates is right. The world IS overpopulated, and as R3 quite rightly says it is driving almost all the other problems the world faces today, particularly the environmental ones

Where is a long world war when you need one? Or a massive infectious disease outbreak that kills millions. And fuck wasting tax dollars on this cure business. It’s mostly undesirables and if not then who cares .Let them die of the disease.

Stop wasting money helping to turn young people into old ones. It’s an outdated model.

Recall in the 70's overpopulation was the big environmental rallying cry used to sell birth control. Like Ecology and Earth Day became passe. Now Climate Change is the dog whistle.

Cheque’s in the mail, R11.

The minute anyone suggests that third world people should use birth control and stop shitting out one kid after another people scream "racism!" and "eugenics!" It's a no-win situation.

Link? I would like to see some of those alleged “racism” comments you claim I will see

If the world is overpopulated and it is a problem, aren't you part of the problem?

This is such a dumb, limp argumentm

R18, Google “overpopulation racism” and you will get innumerable results.

It’s one of the things we are not supposed to challenge or even talk about.

People always claim the world is overpopulated, but they never follow it up with their own immediate suicide. Puzzling. Guess it's easier to complain than to take steps to solve the problem.

One benefit of being an eldergay is that I no longer have to worry about such problems.

R22

No one at any time has ever suggested or informed me that I need to look at birth control as racism as you claim. And absolutely no one ever told me I cant talk about it. And that’s over many decades.

I am sure you can find articles suggesting the world is flat. In fact I bet on a search you could find articles to support just bout anything,

Sane people support birth control. Even in Africa. There is no massive large movement not to talk about it. Saying that makes you sound like a loon.

I agree, the earth is overpopulated. I'm not even in the most populated part of my state but decent affordable housing and land are increasingly more expensive and out of reach for many. Water is more expensive than ever and becomes scarce with drought and population increase. These are in demand necessities we need to live a dignified life. As competition for necessities and opportunity gets worse culture and quality of life will continue to decline.

Crime, poor mental health, and aggression in part derive from the humas inability to promote sustainable living, and more equitable sharing of wealth.

But smaller populations are not enough as long as humans seek to dominate, oppress, and control each other. We need to change our oafish behavior, invest more in a healthy earth, and make it easier for people to reduce unwanted childbirth. While women in some parts of the world seek to have fewer babies access to birth control, abortion and women's health can be denied. The US under G. W. Bush cut back such aid to India to appease the idiots on the right.

Second sentence in R35 should read "human" not humas.

And when or if things do break down in the worlds societies from climate, over population, disease, you will wish we in the US had spent a little more on national defense not a little less. You will also wish our borders are as deadly secure as possible.

We need to begin the culling with Billionaires, Oligarchs, warlords, and Nazis and all Nazi-Adjacent fascist monsters.

You plan to personally do a lot of culling?

I think most of the population GROWTH in the world is coming from Africa now. China is shrinking and India is growing by less than 1% a year.
