    I’m so numb to the threat of a population crash after decades of accepting that I’ll likely die as a direct cause of climate change and/or nuclear annihilation and/or global pandemic and/or cancer from one of the many poisons we’re pumping into our environment. I couldn’t care less about population crash. They do everything they can to ruin the world for everybody but the elite, I’m sure as hell not bringing anybody into it so they can labor for these assholes.

    Meanwhile I got blasted for following the “wait with children until you’re financially stable” advice as a white person (it was supposed to apply to non-whites only).

    Don’t let Elon musk tell you what to do with your genitals. Also anyone that cares about brith rate and however much there is of whatever race is weird.

    Humans will ultimately evolve into another species and concept of human races will become irrelevant.

      I would think wage slaves, but what does a guy who wants to automate everyone out of a job need wage slaves for?

      Comfort slaves. You want to have food and a place to live? Billionaires get to have whatever and do whatever they want and you never complain. What other future could they possibly be gearing towards?

    I’m originally from Texas and whenever I’d go back (which hasn’t been for several years now) there would be tons of ‘pro-life’ billboards featuring happy, smiling white, blonde, blue-eyed babies

          You forgot about the shithole galaxy we’re in and the multiple shithole dimensions, which we may inhabit just one of an infinite (shitty) number. And some physicists think that we’re actually living in a three-dimensional hologram imprinted on the two-dimensional event horizon of a black (shit) hole.

    The cost is parenthood is probably one of the biggest obstacles to having a higher fertility rate in most industrialized countries.

    You want more babies? Stop hoarding all the money with the other 15 richest people in the country. Pay your fair share of taxes so the people looking to start building families get the support they need and their children have access to an affordable quality education. Also give everyone a fair pay.

      This may have been his purpose for raiding the US government files. Probably some schemes involving widespread eugenics by nudging more favorable social supports for certain groups. Completely speculatory but plausible given what can be done with big data these days. We still have zero leads as to what he stole all that data for.

      Hey Elon, the cost of parenthood is the problem, as proven by you having all this money and all these kids. Gimme cash and ill have a kid (not yours)

          I’ve always thought either were silly - it implies that ‘white’ isn’t a color. Even if you say ‘white is the absence of color’ that itself is a color.

          ‘hey Bill, what did you paint your fence as’ ‘I painted it not a color’ ‘ah, quite basic, no?’

            The absence of colour is not a colour.

            That said, white people are generally actually various shades of pinky beige, black people are generally various shades of brown, but our language uses colour-based terminology to refer to ethnicity anyway.

            Complaining that white is a colour, so whites should be included as coloured people, is kind of silly in that context.

            Especially if you remember that the term “coloured people” originated as a way to stop people who had black and white heritage from getting any of the benefits of their whiteness.

              It’s not ‘I want to be included too’ but like, the entire thing is silly. We are all some shade of a color. To single out a group and call them ‘colored’ when we literally all are is just, wat.

              I mean it’s not like the people who were at the helm of racism were particularly intelligent, but like come on. It’s almost comical how smooth-brained they were (are). If I pulled out a pack of crayons and pointed to the white one, their worldview may implode.

                I definitely agree that the whole racism thing is absolutely stupid. A whole kingdom of cruelties based on nothing important.
