    It’s also just wrong, humans use half of all habitable land for agriculture alone. Unless everybody moves to Antarctica doubling it would result in destroying literally all of nature on habitable land.

        My theory is

        and I could be wrong, maybe it’s just a couple of weirdos,

        but my theory is it’s another Tankies psyop trying to convince people that “overpopulation is a western conspiracy to reduce the number of non-whites” or some shit. It would make sense given China’s sudden promotion of population growth being criticized as well as their immediate allies like Iran backsliding women’s rights and education (the core pillars of reducing population growth).
