Unbelievable. The #BrokenTimes (again) promotes pronatalism, a cousin to eugenics, when the reason the US has a population problem is not sex but Trump and immigration.

I am not seeing the problem with a reduced American population.
@jeffjarvis Every time you read an op-ed from these places, always do a cursory background check on who’s writing these single ply editorials:
“Lyman Stone is a demographer and the director of the Pronatalism Initiative at the Institute for Family Studies.”
(He’s also a former missionary)
Sane people don’t expect an infinite boom/line go up scenario for most things in life. Eventually, what goes up, must come down.
@jeffjarvis it’s that too…but it’s also the high cost of living, lack of medical coverage, lack of support & security for women, mothers, DV, rampant misogyny, that makes women stay away from dating let alone childbirth, child rearing. It’s too dangerous & life ruining for women.
But…
They do not care about the population.
They are doing everything to kill everyone. From climate, to poverty, MAHA, etc.
And none of the problems preventing child rearing and family success are being addressed.
@jeffjarvis I suppose the ruling techbros want to send in more south africans.
