I don't have the misfortune of being an inhabitant of the US banana republic.Nothing o in your long rant applies to me.Furthermore you put words in my mouth and misrepresent my view.Indeed best to stop.It's friday afternoon here and unusually sunny.I'm going to enjoy my childfree life and weekend with a nice cocktail and some excellent beers.
I don't own that book and obviously wouldn't since it's outdated and wrong.AFAIK most of the sources were UN or related.And I think you make a lot of assumptions about me. "just don’t like what most studies say" is wrong.It doesn't influence my thinking. They may be true or not, I will deal with them pragmatically since they are out of my control.It is you who believes "what’s coming is inconvenient". Catastrophic even.What do you think you can or should do about the impending apocalypse?
Studies have been wrong before.Some things are foreseable, "the future" is a combination of plenty variables and impossible to predict.The single subject of population isn't even simple.Little anecdote: I found an old school book, you know based on studies, and it had predictions for 15 years.They were off by a billion.Whatever it is, I'm not going to be a nihilist or fatalist for reasons and issues I have zero control over.I am living now and do the best with what I got.
You're right, all those holy libs complaining about it are just hypocrites.They get real mad when you call them out on it.When it's just the poor and minorities they don't actually care about they can look away and enjoy their great democracy, but when they get a taste it's fascism.
Still
one billion in 1804 two billion in 1927 three billion in 1960 four billion in 1974 five billion in 1987 six billion in 1999 seven billion in 2011 eight billion in 2022
Already too many for my taste.And no to all, don't react with irrelevant "there's enough food for..." or Malthusian bla bla
I'll just block you, the online equivalent of slamming the door in the faceof annoying biblethumpers at your door that won't go away.Go cry somewhere else with your BS
Leviticus 24:16Whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him.
Plenty of other nice punishments for whatever. burning at the stake, hanging, and crucifixion.Or maybe some non-lethal whipping or wife beating.No thanks
