It was good information until you decided to be a dick at the end. I was going to thank you for a decent response but actually fuck you for deciding that I need a 3rd grade monster truck ad to understand it. That sort of elitism is a big part of the reason the stupid half of the country fucking hates the educated half.

But Idiocracy's point still stands, the most poorly educated in that scenario will be the ones to reproduce the most.
I don't think that there's a compelling argument against population control as the future looms, how it is implemented is what I think is up for debate.
I strongly believe in personal freedom, but in an overpopulated world, I'm not certain that freedom should extend to reproduction.
Here's where I get a little eugenic-y, and it feels icky, downvote if you must, but I'd prefer an intelligent reply. Why should a species, faced with the problem of overpopulation and gifted the power of sentience, not elevate it's best and suppresses it's worst? Maybe because I don't feel a personal drive to have kids, my partner isn't interested either, but it feels very selfish to think you personally have the right to add one more unregulated specimen to the petri dish.
Is it a huge turn away from what has made us human since forever? Yea, but wasn't the Internet? Internal combustion engines? I don't feel strongly enough about this to not be swayed in my ideas, but I just see it as a logical extension of a problem we face. What would Vulcans do?
Maine lost something like a third of its nurses to a vaccine mandate. Which is cute because medical staff, all the way down to janitorial (hi) get updated vaccines every year.
On the other hand there are logging trucks piling up at the border on the golden road right now!
Drunkenness is sobriety
Scientists can be absolutely the biggest idiots. I worked maintenance in a laboratory and sometimes I was impressed somebody who can genotype plankton could also tie their own shoes.
AMERICA!!!! FUCK YEAA!!!
They always have been, you should see the lease terms on some of these pavement princesses
I think CCW is a pretty good idea if this is already a reoccurring problem. Definitely don't plan on brandishing it, but the way you will feel while some asshole tries to degrade you is a special one. You also need to practice, regularly.
Go read the shit over on r/conservative, and then tell me you think you can reason with those people.
I'm sure if you offered to buy an entire field of pumpkins they would work with you on the price. It's sort of how trade works.
Can't say it on .world
