Its wild how bad that policy has turned out to be for them and how off the population bomb actually is.
One might critize my post fairly by saying that it is easy to criticize these predictions in hindsight. The thing is that I don't see humility in the elites. They keep making these end of world predictions and people fall for them again and again. They have very bad consequences.
