I don’t care about population decline. It’s a bullshit concern based on the current status quo.
You're not listening, this isn't a political issue, it's logistics.
Right now, in South Korea, if they don't open borders then every woman will have to have five children and each of their children will need to have five children to keep the nation functioning.
This is a trend-line that many countries are following because of capitalist influence crushing family and community, it's just that South Korea is ahead of the pack. If you don't care and want rapid decline, then good, embrace it and thump your chest that you want millions and millions of people to die as logistics networks collapse over the next several decades. If it was slower we could adapt, but it's happening too fast for supply chains to adapt to, the supply chains that get you your medicine and toys and food and medicine for developing nations.
If this is acceptable to you, then fine. Wear it proud and say you're against humanity broadly, there are plenty of people who think our world would be better off without us at all. You're not allowed to complain about other social issues like withdrawing vaccine research and so on, and it makes me wonder what you're even trying to do by interacting with anyone online or why you care if someone is "blowing dog whistles" it's all contradictory.
I’m all for open borders. Also, that’s all status quo pro capitalism reasoning. I’m fine with certain systems collapsing, and this puts pressure on more accepting immigration policy, which would also open trade up to a more accessible level. Sounds like a win to me.
Okay then, you don't actually care. I'm done with the convo and will never see another message from you.
