Oh really?

    Yes. Yes, indeed.

    So the next time you have some idiot trad con taking about your duty to have a bunch of kids to save Western culture, please show them this little post, tell them they are a liar, and then tell them to have a cup of STFU.

    There are almost 8 billion people on the planet and counting. The human race does not need any more numbers. Despite that, the desperate hoards are reproducing like roaches and the productive class is dwindling and dying out rapidly. I cannot envision a future that is not a dystopian nightmare. I really can't.

    I don't have a crystal ball, and I'm not necessarily smarter than anyone else. However, virtually all of my friends and family believe that humanity will just keep plugging along as it always has. It won't. We are living in truly unprecedented times, by many standards; technological, societal, environmental, etc. Nuclear power and weaponry have only been around for a few generations. Humanity will end in the nuclear age. I think this shit-show we call humanity has less than 20 years left.

    I know they've been saying that since the beginning of time, but c'mon. Things are really different this time. REALLY different.

  3. Declining populations are only a problem if you are running a Ponzi scheme disguised as a retirement pension.

  4. Roosh seems to disagree in his latest post, entitled "Why Nationalism Without Natalism Will Fail." Link:



  5. Nice.You have that rare ability to look at a problem from a fresh perspective.

    Yes, it is a lie. However, consider the reason why we have declining populations... it's because our most intelligent women are refusing to reproduce. So declining, and dropping the IQ too.

    Im of the opinion that the right to personal freedom is an inalienable one that must be protected especially from foreign persecution that can happen anywhere even on our street corner - and even from our own indigenous brothers - they can be particularly hostile especially if they get the wrong idea - like you need help from persecution even from them!

    Of course here in Australia it is no freedom without responsibility unless free people act with the requisite level of personal responsibility against foreigners! We must all take responsibility for our actions even after work, work hard to improve our lives and thus contribute to the betterment of society especially if you get drunk. This is fundamental to the success of any democracy - but sobriety is required in the ballot box yessiree! I wont hear another word on that one!.

    From a grassroots campaign point of view - the family is the core unit of society, its foundation and the best form of social welfare - even better than the dole which is just a handout to people wont wont work or will but just not now - even if you sent them to Karratha!

    The problem isn't that there's too many people. The problem is that there's too many low-IQ, tribal, cousin-marryin' people with no sense of future time orientation. The reason that there's too many low-IQ, tribal, cousin-marryin' people with no sense of future time orientation,is because white people developed petroleum and high yield food crops, then handed them to the world's poor without any kind of oversight. The smart thing to do would have been to require the Third World to implement education measures and birth control before handing out the free grub, but that would have taken effort and intelligence, - something the Left has never wanted anything to do with.

    If all your neighbor is good at is making kids, then handing them a $1000 stipend a month will not result in their going to college/tech school, buying work clothes and landing a decent job so you can stop giving them the $1000 stipend a month. It will result in their having more kids and begging you for more money so said kids don't starve. Population reduction starts first with the West biting it's bottom lip and saying "Sorry. You're on your own. We're tapped out. We'll buy you some condoms and try to educate you so you can think and plan beyond next week, but the free lunches are over."

  9. However, the future belongs to those that show up for it. And if only unproductive parasites are reproducing, then the future is dark indeed.

    Once the people who know who to make and build and run the things that make civilization happen are gone, all that's left is the 7th century.

    So while humanity may well survive, everything we've achieved will be wiped away by hordes of idiots.

  10. I love the Liberal "Let's turn our country into a hellhole tomorrow so we can rule today!" approach. So glad I'm past the point that I have fewer years ahead of me than behind me.

  11. But aren't liberals the ones who are worried about overpopulation, not conservatives? In the past, liberals were for population control , but in recent years that may have switched due to immigration concerns. The fact that conservative religions and households have many kids, while liberal households and agnostics/atheists have fewer, is evidence of the former.

    I agree with most comments made here. Sadly, the parasites are now out numbering and out breeding their hosts, thus leading to the inevitable elimination of useful mankind, followed by said parasites. I'm very glad to be coming to the end of my hosting duties, so that I can sit on the sidelines and watch the decline. All thanks to the progressive, liberal agenda. In the end these self-serving pricks won't really have power over anything.

    This. With jobs that are suitable for lower IQ people declining due to various automation techniques, why import additional low skill set people?

    Good jobs for people on the left side of the intelligence bell curve has been in rapid decline for decades. We have a real issue with keeping these people employed with well paying jobs.

    The open borders policies by the Chamber of Commerce/Democrats/Republicans hurts people looking for work.

    Its not only the non-professionals being impacted. Take a look at how Disney, Southern California Edison, etc., have been abusing the H1B visa programs by firing their IT departments and replacing them with low qualified/cheaper people from India/Pakistan. The kicker here is that the IT people were forced to train their replacements if they wanted a severance package.

    Funny that I don't see the companies replacing their upper management with lower cost foreigners.

    Its coming to all of us if this is not changed.

    Not a bad post, but it skirts around the actual main argument for why population decline is bad. It's not about Social Security being set up as a Ponzi scheme where everyone collects more than they'd put in. Now, it might be that SS is a Ponzi scheme, but if so, it's because life expectancy has increased.

    The argument is, rather, that with a declining population, the ratio of pensioners to everyone else is increasing, a lower % of the population is working to support everyone. It doesn't matter how much the old folks paid into SS and thus deferred consumption when they were young, that money isn't going to magically turn into the goods and services needed to support them. It's ultimately the labor of those of working age that does, and if they are few in number, lots of cashed-out SS contributions are going to chase fewer goods and services. Inflation will ensue.

  15. A compelling conservative take on population decline is David Goldman's How Civilizations Die (and Why Islam is Dying, Too). I can't recall if he did hand-wringing about the business issues. He most certainly spent time on how populations lose the will to live due to diminishing religion in their lives.

    Has anybody read it? Thoughts?

    Still waiting for that deck of cards....



  17. Printing money as debt will quickly eat away at the benefits of a declining population by robbing everyone of wealth

    bluecatclub, I wouldn't recommend anything written by David "Spengler" Goldman to anyone. All he does is look at contemporary demographic trends, extrapolates with abandon, and forces the resulting projections into a self-congratulatory narrative of civilizational will to power. While beig utterly clueless about the existing scholarly work on long-term demographical development, which is entirely adequate in explaining everything he attempts to explain:
