You all motherfuckers know deep in your hearts that humanity can’t survive this shit without a couple billion dying off. It’d be better if those couple billion were never born.
There’s no sustainable living without sustainable reproduction. But that’s even more taboo than everyone going vegan/vegetarian.
Damn, Thanos! We are overpopulated, I agree. But human numbers have always (and I do mean always, as long as we've been able to track it) adjusted to the sustainability of their environment given all but the most dire of economic factors that might affect that. Right now, we're seeing a rapid decline in children being born throughout the world. Just because it doesn't happen on a particular time table doesn't mean it's not correcting itself.
Oh look ecofascism
Oh look, a buzzword
Ecofascism is a legit problem, people in the US would rather have unsustainable lifestyles than not commit genocide.
The definition of fascism isn’t „things I don’t like”.
Name 5 scholarly works you've read on fascism, or 3 on ecofascism specifically.
In other words: I have a lot of knowledge about this shit. The overpopulation myth is tied to fascism at the hip. You've integrated fascist propaganda into your worldview if you think overpopulation is the issue.
I've never heard about the overpopulation myth is tied to fascism. Got any more information or sources on this? Cheers, bud.
You can just Google "overpopulation ecofascism" and the first few results in normal and scholar mode are pretty good (the former for well cited intros, the latter for more in depth stuff on the topic)
Any ideology that incorporates vying for genocide is pretty close to fascism.
This. Tell people to not eat meat and hear the cries of agreement. Tell people to stop having kids and all of a sudden you're another Hitler.
Gee I wonder why
