Hi interesting convo. You guys should talk about the upcoming zombie apocalypse. I know it's coming cause in my country belize some people who get sick with covid and go to the hospital are chosen to be tested on. They are infected with a zombie infection then poisoned or druged to study the reanimation. I am also infected and got infected while having to go through quarantine upon re-entering the country. It was a laced covid swab and I got sick after that day. My health had been declining since and I'm doing my best to fight it. I am in much pain and I can feel my body changing slowly and it hurts. I have no idea who to contact for help and can't go to the authorities since they are involved in having these tests done I fear I would be killed to cover up the story so I'm hesitant to make videos about my experience and pos5 it on youtube. Just hoping I can supress the infection long enough that my body adapts.

I would argue that the *depopulation phenomenon* goes back to _Noah's Ark._ Academically, however, the *depopulation discussion* is seen in Lord Byron, William Wordsworth, Shakespeare to Charles Darwin, etc. And given the history of governments and religious dogma, you can say that depopulation, i.e. *ethnic cleansing* goes back to the _CHRISTIAN/MUSLIM CRUSADES._ And let's not forget that the *Vatican* played the puppeteer role in the deadly war. At any rate, the point is that the depopulation talks are well-documented throughout mankind. Moreover, it is the so-called -self-proclaimed masters- behind their iron curtains that manipulate and accelerate the mass hysteria of everything that we're seeing now. It is them who weaponized this depopulation propaganda through mainstream *projective programming* for the so-called "necessary" governmental/elite-issued democide.

My theory is that population growth drops rapidly as soon as your society requires both parents to work. For the society to have children at a replacement rate, the economy needs to support a stay at home parent, or people will think it's too hard to have children.

The society doesn't require both parents to work. It only encourages and propels people to choosing careers over having big families. The resources are all available, there are more than when Westerners had more children. It's that people have too many opportunities to choose monetary gains over family life. And there's a question of fairness, if, as you suggest, welfare states would increase their support for stay-at-home parents. Such support goes against the principle of increasing productivity, which is the basis of creating opportunities.

I think the only way humanity can survive if we bring back the traditional family norms and values. Too many women chase careers till their mid 30's and want to become 'independent'; by the time they want to have kids, they are either too old, too picky or have difficulty carrying children altogether; not to mention, feminism as a whole has created many issues as well.

College is mostly free too, if you kids earn it by making good grades for a scholarship. 3. YOU control 'work culture.' You get to choose how important work is to you in your life. It's not easy to make it, but it is doable, if you're not materialistic and focus on love rather than having nice things.

That book came out in the 70's and scared me so bad I went down to the doctor and got a vasectomy. I wasn't going to have any children if I could help it. Then years later, when my wife started feeling her hormones ebbing away she begged me to have it reversed. In those days it was a 50-50 chance of success by it worked for me and we had two kids.

I got married 22 years ago. I was 24 and my wife was 21. We had our first sooner than we thought and he was premature. We had to rely on some good old fashioned government assistance for a year and then got on our feet. We had four more kids (without government assistance) and have been running ever since. There are a few things I would do differently but not having five kids isn’t one of them. What it comes down to is that you CAN do with less. Unchecked Capitalism is not the problem. It is unchecked wants. Kids are a sacrifice. A big one. But anything worth having requires big sacrifice. It’s a refining fire. A trip to Disneyland is a once in a lifetime thing. Not a once a year thing. You can do with an LG phone instead of an iPhone. You don’t actually need Netflix, Hulu, or Disney plus. Your kids don’t need extra presents because your sister gave HER kids more. Presents don’t equal love. People talk about the “Good Ole Days” when raising a family was easier. My grandpa used to say that the only good thing about the “Good ole Days” is a bad memory. He grew up during the Great Depression. He said “dollars (silver) were as big as wagon wheels and there were damn few of them.” It’s never been easy or convenient to raise kids and if you wait until your totally ready you won’t ever have any. I know some can’t have kids or just do get the opportunity. But the ones who can and do have the opportunity should. Strong families are an amazing antidote to overreacting governments.

Husband had to work three jobs and I had to do daycare in order to stay home with my kids. I caught so much crap for staying home too, even by other women, actually, especially by other women! It wasn't fun and I often remained silent because I dreaded the question, "So what do you do?" I'd tell them and they would walk away. I never thought I made the wrong decision though. I knew I could raise my kids better than a daycare center and I was right. I have one daughter who is a double PHd , a Biologist and a Geneticist, and got scholarships for everything by working hard. Another is a Registered Nurse and another a Psychologist. Married young and three kids by 26, the fourth years later at 36. Here I sit now 52 and thirty years married still with with two teens and an 8 year old still at home. In some ways husband and I DO regret having so many because we've never had any time to ourselves but not in a serious way.

You use the word "increasing" volume of patients implying that there is a greater percentage of people as patients than previously. Are there more people proportionately falling ill than in years gone by, and if so why? Could it be that the way our way of life has changed (NOT developed) over the last 100+ years is unhealthy for humans? I think so. Despite the discovery of antibiotics to cure many deadly diseases and other medicines to cope with many health problems, all sorts of new health problems keep appearing, debilitating rather than deadly, but destroying peoples' lives because they cannot function fully.

Maybe I can help Jordan here since I'm one of those people; how I see it: a system that relies on an ever-increasing population of young to supplant the old is inherently unsustainable. So, either it's a bad system and is fixed or it's only a matter of time until it extinguishes itself. But our system either can't, or won't, be fixed. So by process of elimination there is only one outcome left. And while I'm not happy about it, I am accepting of it. He asks, "what are we going to do about it?" Nothing.

My partner has just taken on a 2nd job as it's the only way she can get some savings in the bank, so I see her even less now.

He's more using that point 1) to dispel the prevalent myth of overpopulation and 2) to use it to suggest the plausibility that there is a growing anti-life sentiment that runs deeper than the surface talk of population (or politics) and, having infected the minds of many institutions, it may wreak havoc like we can't imagine. So that people can be aware of the mindset -- see it in themselves and/or others.

I reenlisted for 4 yrs. and got my bachelor's degree without touching a penny of my GI Bill. Now that I have my degree, I have no use for the GI Bill so guess where that went? My children I am having. I am currently getting $4200 a mo. for my service 'every month' and my kids get 100% free education along with my 450K they can use for college if they do not get scholarships.

John Calhoun's "Behavioral Sink" research in the 1960s and 70s studied the impact of overpopulation on mammals. The odd thing was Calhoun's mammal populations never hit maximum capacity, let alone reached the status of "overpopulation." Yet, with great predictability Calhoun's mammal populations experience catastrophic collapse before overpopulation! I became aware of Calhoun's research just a handful of years ago, but it seems to me Calhoun's work predicts the collapse of male-female relationships within utopian socialist conditions.

if only those utopian socialist conditions actually existed then we wouldn't have this problem socialism just doesn't work. the government takes businesses away at gunpoint and tells everyone "now if you want something you have to come to me" and that always ends in shortages, famines, abuses of power and possibly genocide

@@caralho5237 - I understand your objections, and AGREE. However, Calhoun absolutely did create just such a utopia for his mammals! He selected the healthiest mammals through medical screening, and then placed the test subjects in a completely enclosed environment free of any predators. Calhoun's environment included common social spaces, private mating spaces, and family spaces true to the nature of the tested mammals. He then provided a wide variety of the healthiest food, routine medicine, and waste management for the test subjects. Calhoun was careful not to withhold any needs of the mammals, including what might be called "playground toys" for exercise and amusement. Yet experiment after experiment, both large studies and small, saw a repeated pattern. At roughly 2/3rds capacity of the environment, the mammal populations experienced a catastrophic population implosion. This baffled Calhoun as it went against all of the overpopulation theoretical models. Yet there it was - a data set that predicted with great regularity the demise of mammal populations in utopian conditions. NOTE: MY INTERPRETATION. While Calhoun was studying the effects of overpopulation on mammalians to hopefully gain insight to predictive patterns of human populations, Calhoun actually found something far more compelling. In his last and largest study in Scandinavia, Calhoun described with great detail the progression of the decline. It appears that the socialism utopian conditions disrupted male-female mating behaviors so intensely that females no longer needed males or wanted offspring. And the males, with nothing much to do and growing more hostile toward the females, began widespread open warfare! Calhoun reported the large population of unattached young males began killing off other mice - young and old, male and female with increased regularity. A perpetual state of violence continued, in spite of utopian conditions of everything the mammals could want, until the population was completely dead.

Culture and Morals have a massive role to play in this mess. For much of America and Europe's time during the last 2 centuries, society was highly influenced by the cultural and moral beliefs of Christianity even if we structured our society secularly. Once the culture began to decay and the morals fade, the society began putting itself on the path of self-destruction. Fact is we have more than enough resources to sustain ourselves and a lot more people, but because of our lack of cultural guidance, there is nothing to channel our energy or ambitions to see it through. You can tell this is the case because the most efficient, patriotic, and stable groups of people in America today are the immigrants who arrived just in the last few decades, and that's not a coincidence.

I can recall reading about some financial research (nearly twenty years ago) which tallied up the overall tax burden for the average American citizen. I was shocked to learn that it was 56% of earned income. (the study included income taxes, sales tax, property tax, luxury tax, government service fees, bridge and highway tolls, fuel taxes, etcetera.) So, that looked rather ominous twenty years ago. What do you suppose that overall tax figure has grown to, today? My point is ... there is a reason that "Two Income Households" are the norm today. Obviously, when over half of the combined household income is taken away; that household becomes a "One Income Household" In other words, for each working parent in the USA; one adult is working exclusively to support government, while the other is working to support family. And, need I say ... if the figures were updated to reflect current tax burdens, it seems clear that the government takes a far bigger slice of the pie than it leaves for the children to divide. Surely, there is a reason that this data is not published these days.

I love that one quote: _Whoever believes in infinite growth in a finite world with finite resources is either insane or an economist._ In nature, the population is controlled by predators, and the apex predators either fight each other or starve until equilibrium is restored... Also, think of this: a decade after Germany lost the war, the middle class recovered to the point that they could afford to buy a house with a garden, have a wife who doesn't need to work, raise two kids, one car, and one vacation a year overseas. Today, both parents work 100% (I even know families with more than two jobs!) and still can't afford to buy a home, but barely afford the rent of a small, shabby flat 1h from the city center where they have to work. Yet, the media tells them that they should be happy to live in Germany, one of the richest and most peaceful countries in the world... meanwhile, for what you pay in Germany for a low quality take away food, you get a three-course menu at a decent restaurant in Portugal and Romania has far superior internet (10x as fast, more stable, better coverage even in rural areas) compared to Germany, and they pay only 1/20th for it... Did I also mention that Germans are record holders in paying taxes and yet the public infrastructure crumbles as if they weren't paying a dime... There are so many other interesting examples from other countries, but they all point in the same direction: decline and fall and probably the rise of extremist parties and civil war, or regular war...

As a youth advocate I'll tell you a core problem with this is the majority of kids being accidents, with unfit parents. Any combination of the following problems are growing rapidly: parents being poor, very young, coming from abuse themselves, multi-generational single mothers, multi-generational teen moms etc. At the same time, a growing majority of stable people are not having kids or even long-term romantic relationships well into their 20s and 30s. We also have the largest majority of virgins over 20, 25 and 30 years old than in history. The people who would have been stable capable parents have been heavily abused in childhood by being hyper-sheltered, which is corrosive to development. It's worse than Idiocracy predicted. Very soon, the vast majority of kids being born will be born into broken families, orphanages and utter chaos, desperately in need of role models & strong community, that could only come from the adults who put off having kids indefinitely. One of the most important trends I advocate for is adoption and fostering, also radically targeting the abuse in these systems via government that destroys potentially good parents before they can get approved, while leaving kids with abusive or dangerous foster parents at the same time.

I believe the only limitation for anyone having children is their ability to financially and emotionally support their children. If one cannot do both, then that person should not be having children at that time. The only problem arises when people have (unwanted) children, usually out of wedlock, that force that child to have to endure a life without a stable family or home. Even worse, some children are just dumped at orphanages. And then worst of all, some parents will go so far as taking out their frustration on the child. No child deserves to have to go through that hell.

@@jediknight38 different countries have different kinds of poor people. I'm not sure how things are in the US or UK. But in my country, Myanmar, poor people have less access to education, and most relevant to this topic, sex education. Too many people from lower socio-economic statuses have very little working knowledge of contraception. Even though there is no religious objection to contraception, the sheer lack of reproductive knowledge means too many women do not know how to even prevent pregnancy. This brings me to my next point, in some countries, there are religious objections to contraception. And it is the case that with good education, people do tend to discard the less practical aspects of religion. So the inverse is also true. Religious beliefs tend to be strongly held in people who are less educated. All of this causes a positive feedback cycle, where poor people have less education, including reproductive health education, and this leads them to have more children. And with more mouths to feed, it puts more strain on resources that are already scarce, thus continuing the cycle of poverty.

That a larger family will resolve. A friend had another baby with a drug addicted schizophrenic even with two pre-existing kids she wasn't able to care for properly. As she had an abortion and for some (as I understand quite a few because it's traumatic) women abortion leads later to an obsession to have a kid.

I'm poor too but I'm adequately rational and sufficiently intelligent to avoid those traps even with my own mental health challenges which lead me to be poor too. Childhood abuse has long lasting effects like in my case neurology gets all messed up as you fear for your life everyday for the first 20 years of your life. I know a lot I say is quite controversial but as far as I've seen having too many kids in my circle is caused by mental health challenges and the carelessness due to it. I edited a lot but just wanted to add, which came first poverty or problems? I don't know.

As someone who is a great fan of Jordan Peterson I agree nobody should be telling young people they should or should not have children. I live in Australia and I do not see the nation becoming better because there are more people then there used to be. Quite the opposite. When developers bulldoze all the trees for the next suburb, where children are going to be brought up without a backyard to play in because developers want smaller blocks at increase prices, I don't see that as a good thing. When the animals that used to live in that Bushland are laying on the road dead, I do not see that as a good thing. When I see the most fertile land is being used for housing instead of food production, I do not see that as a good thing. Of course 25 million people in Australia is going to be more sustainable and 50 million or 250 million. How to educate people in Nigeria to stop having 8 children and increasing their crime and poverty is an obvious problem. I would say more but I have to go to work.

The world was a completely different place 150+ years ago. Children learned life-sustaining skills from their family and their community. The life skills that many of us boomers developed and relied upon were learned outside the community, that is, wherever the job happened to be. Because the global community forced many of us to move to where the applicable jobs were, we had less time for helping the children and less time to develop alternative life skills. Personal freedom and progress come at a "cost". Global economies are now capitalist economies regardless of applied ideology. The trick is to "manage it" on a global scale. Until a total world capitulation comes to pass, it is unlikely this can begin to happen. I wish I had something more to pass on.

Its a conservative libertarian pipe dream that only wealthy conservatives propagate. Another reason marriage and family will fall apart is our toxic pop and consumer culture. Again this is propagated by so called capitalists who think you need porn, fast food, degenerate pop culture and social media to numb you down.

It gives you your own money, independence, freedom, your own friends, status, you don't have to put up with the abuse from your husband with " i earn money therefore i am a tsar" complex, although there is still a possible version - I earn more money than you therefore i am a tsar ;) with his betrayal(s), his bad manners, or just the fact that you drifted apart and feel like strangers. Also it makes you feel safe in case of accident or death of a perfect, loving husband.

Cost of living is out the roof even with two people working. For them to have a baby means one needs to stay home making it even more unaffordable.

That's an excuse your great granparents did it when they were poorer than you people today have a higher expectations for standard of living and see kids as a burden because they live longer, don't need the kids as much to survive when they get old as they did in the past. If your statement was true all the rich people would have the highest birth rates but that is not the case.

It would be immoral for most young couples to have a child when they can't afford a home and they can't afford to take off time to work for child rearing

I am currently 22 years old single with no children. I dream of the day where I have children and lots of them. But reality is my generation simply doesn't want kids in their 20's due to not being able to make a living in these hard times. With inflation increasing and the world looking worse and worse by the day, friends around me say they don't want their kids to suffer too.

I've been educated to think that "small family is a happy family". Then someone did a maths based on population density per Sq km with respect to the most densed populated city and it came out that the whole world population can conviniently fit inside Australia with parks and recreational centers. Then I found this video which makes me question my education.

it can but we are very wasteful, especially the global top1%. also we consume alot of animals, there are 3-4 billion pigs, cows, bulls, chickens etc. currently on earth just waiting to be eaten, they all need space and consume alot of food and pollute, and we need space for other food obviously. don't forget the hundreds of millions of Animals that live as Pets, that consum, pollute etc. currently we are using the resources of 1.75 Earths, obviously that can't end well since we've been doing that since probably a century or more! Edit: exclude Chickens, there are nearly 20 billion Chickens alone apparently... yikes.

Yup. It's all a lie. The only problem is waste and pollution, really. If we farmed locally and ate locally, and didn't live in dense cities, this would be a much better place. We are certainly not overpopulated. We are wasteful and too focused on corporate money-making.

For those who say "we can replace all the workers with robots", remember that we can't replace the consumers with robots, and without consumption, production is pointless. If there's no one to buy the goods one produces, there's no point in producing them and said goods would remain unsold.

But people need to eat! If only robots are making the food then people have no choice. They will stop farming been possible for us. They already own most businesses. The pandemic was to close a lot by making them in debt to the government and then the government buy the business or take them. Blackrock already own most and they are the true elites. They own the seeds providing the whole world, they own all the important quarries farming all materials we need etc etc. it’s already too late. War will be the next step as I can’t see them pulling the alien final card

My observation is that in our small bubbles in our small cities, our areas seem to have no room. For anyone. Everywhere you go is traffic. Every restaurant has a wait. Every home is over priced, the cost of everything is too high. All of these indicators usually point to a supply shortage, and supply shortaged usually points to not being able to meet the demand. Everyone in our generation 25-35 years now, has been getting kicked by these indicators since we have been adults. We all look at each other and say, well i didnt change anything....but now my drive to work takes 3 times as long. So whole trying to stay afloat and mentally strong and resilient, i should voluntarily add raising a child into the mix. Its tough for us to climb yet another mountain.

And unlike many other goods in capitalistic markets, one does not simply produce more land, water, or clean air. Under any other situation, we would be considered hostage to a land cartel as the supply of land is low relative to demand, but even such a land cartel can't make more land open for settlement for there isn't such land left anywhere

All of these factors are being generated to maximize profits. Create a community that is easily manipulated by false scarcities, constant underlying fear, pitting one group against another, then just sit back and see how far these factors continue to work. If not create a new virus that's just the old one but give it another name and number. Don't worry most people now a days haven't had basic biology classes so they don't know how fast they mutate and therefore are virtually immortal. But humanity has been getting along and adapting right along with them for years. AMAZING!! It's all engineered by larger and larger corporations wanting to control every facet of human life with the one main goal being MAXIMIZE PROFITS.
