Everyday the fearmongers in the infoxication media scare us with the last crisis and emergency, until it goes out of fashion. Then they sell you the next thing to be scared of. Of course, they don’t do it so that you make the best decisions, but to promote the interests of those who pay them.
In fact, it can all be considered a case of obfuscation. Instead of hiding the truth, they hide among so much noise and so much banal information that you are not able to focus on the key issues and challenges for our civilization. Like slow extinction.
Many people believe the world is becoming overpopulated…the reality will shock you.
In this speech, Stephen Shaw explains how rapidly declining birth rates are putting many countries in danger of disappearing within a few generations.
Reversing the narratives around children and population growth is critical for the sake of our civilisations. It will help us design the changes that our society needs to survive, instead of the useless snakeoil remedies that our politicians and media sell to us.
They say «You’ll have nothing and you’ll be happy», or «You won’t have a good job, your own house nor children but you can have cats instead.» They also defend that making it difficult for our young couples to create a family and instead importing unskilled uncivilized people is the solution to all our problems.
Let’s not sacrifice our offspring for our material confort. Go make a baby! 😉 Or encourage others to do so before it’s too late.
