Birth rates are retreating and, in some major economies, are well below levels historically regarded as desirable. This development, years in the making, either terrifies us or amuses us.

This is a very dangerous euphemism. Birth rates are moving towards below replacement fertility rates in many countries. Getting this premise wrong will have terrible consequences.

Why should we try to curtail population like the motherWEFers and Be ill Gates and the other globalists want? You never know where and when the genius that will change everything is born! With smaller populations running under totalitarian systems, this dystopia will be complete and unbreakable. To stop it we need more people and more geniuses.

It's a controversy that the state is trying to impose.

There's every chance that it may peak but there's still much land where the population isn't thriving. The Earth is never under pressure of rising population.
