        Have you been to Israel? They go out of their way not to exploit Palestinians for labour. Most of the Israeli labor class is imported from Thailand.

        Its pretty crazy and shows just how genocidal those people are. They literally want them all dead.

        Well no, you add children to no resources and no shelter and you get demoralization and greater overpopulation and a noticable impact on crime and life span.

          Sounds like future slaves to me. They - the billionaires - want to kill most of us worldwide and enslave the rest.

      Bombs and bullets tend to be more effective than condoms.

        In a broad sense this is inaccurate - war has been around as long as humans, and yet we were on an exponential population growth curve until the demographic transitions started.

        Over the last century we as a species have significantly reduced child mortality, improved education, infrastructure, overall quality of life, and established reproductive health initiatives that supply condoms and sex education!

        These advancements cause the local mortality rate to plummet. Then the following generation gets to reproductive age but has much less offspring, and the reproductive rate falls farther than the mortality rate did.

        This is called the “demographic transition” and has occurred across dramatically different cultures, environments, and economies.

        This is not universal or inevitable across the globe but the impact is so significant that global population as a whole is currently heading towards a plateau!

        Therefore condoms, reproductive healthcare, and distributed economic growth are more effective at reducing population growth than bombs and bullets.

        Developing a nation is literally more cost-efficient than destroying it. For the species. Not for the people selling the bombs.

          The problem with that is they’re not trying to “develop” Gaza… at least not for the people living there.

            True! It’s just another of the many ways that evil is counterproductive to its own interests.

            Helping groups of humans that bigots don’t like would literally result in less humans that bigots don’t like in the world.

            But they can’t help the wrong humans! Oh no! They have to hurt those humans! And so they leave those humans in the socioeconomic conditions that maintain exponential population growth indefinitely

              Yup… assholes gonna asshole. It did seem like we were getting better for awhile, but the news lately shows us not much has changed.
