Well, when you live in huts like cavemen and your population is very spread out, of course you’re going to be less impactful. Shrinking the population WOULD help, no matter how much you scream about eugenics and fascism. Gonna be downvoted for this, but it’s just my opinion at the end of the day. No need to get butthurt, keyboard warriors.
What an extremely bigoted thing to say. Most of the worlds indigenous people don’t “live in huts like cavemen”. Where they do have poor living conditions, these are usually a product of external colonization and/or forced migrations leaving them in lands hostile to human life. You realize there are still over 6 million indigenous people in the US, right? Almost 500 million worldwide.
Yeah, shrinking the population would totally help, if we shrank the population starting at the top.
NEVER trust the vehement anti-natalist movements. It’s thinly veiled eugenics that brands itself as super-moral.
Reminder that almost every single one of us is part of the world’s richest 10%.
Agreed. Exactly why we need to listen to these marginalized communities, and empower them to take action on our behalf and with our cooperation. It’s why no matter how good I think my ideas are, I try to recognize that I come from a position of relative privilege, and that it is likely that even my best of ideas will be lacking in intersectional analysis that is needed to develop real, powerful solutions.
I mean, shrinking the population would absolutely help assuming that you shrunk it enough.
It’s hard to destroy an environment when the destroyers dont exist.
It would be more efficient if we shrunk the power of the wealthiest individuals and made everyone fall under a wealthy limit
Why should one person own and control so much wealth when they will never realistically be able to enjoy all of that wealth during their lifetime? Especially if that one person hoarding all that wealth they’ll never use is producing, creating and maintaining so much pollution for one individual.
Sure, or we could just ban super yachts, private jets, cruise ships and empower those indigenous communities who have had such meaningful successes to spread their ideas and understanding so that we can begin to develop a sustainable culture, and we don’t need to kill half the worlds population.
¿por que no los dos?
Also, not half the population, more like 99.9% of it. Start with the richest first, and work your way down.
I mean, were you paying attention? The answer to why not is because it’s eco-fascist rhetoric and I’m not an eco-fash.
