I didn't know that Iranian women had any access to reproductive rights.

Also Italy is voting on Sept 25th and may go hard right, along with Hungary going maaively anti-abortion.
The world seems to be going scary fascist.

I think the reverse should happen, mandatory sterilization of 90% of the human population.

I don't know why any of them are 'panicking' about low birthrates, isn't there such a thing as 'climate change' with the big (willfully unacknowledged) cause known to be 'overpopulation?'

Isn't that the thing most of these foreign countries bleat about with much handwringing and acting like the world is going to end, but ultimately proves to be nothing more then backpedaling hypocrites when people recognize that overpopulation leads to potentially civilisation-ending climate change and quit pumping out babies like no tomorrow?

Seriously. These places want a solution but don't want to be the one to set the first example. They want everyone else to do the work to fix the planet, then cry when seemingly nothing gets done and everything starts going to hell.

I guess it is even happening in Sweden. From what little I know about Sweden, it has always had nazis in the background politically.

Most governments use a constant growth model to manage their economies, and a shrinking workforce is bad news in this model. We also have a massive elder population that is aging well past their 'usefulness'. That is why so many are shitting themselves over no one shitting out brats.

It is much, much easier to control a person who breeds than one who doesn't. Bizzy, tired and distracted people are a much better audience for advertising to hypnotize, because the heavy lifting is already done. The vast majority of addicts are parunts which I don't think is a coincidence as they are looking for an escape. And constantly distracted people are prone to errors, such as accidentally breeding again without it being intentional.

A person who breeds is forced to live within strict parameters or else. Society and the government back this up. There is also the current worship of brats in our pronatalism society. Hence the shaming of keeping an unwanted brat which means the vast majority soldier on being parunts despite being miserable. And make no mistake about it, parunts could receive two years off with regular pay to be with their baybees and free daycare until the brats hit four and they'd still be miserable and would make additional demands of what they think should be "free", courtesy of the tax payers.

People who breed are natural consumers and the poor who breed are given sustenance by the government which favors companies that has a guaranteed baseline of customers and stock price. There is no way anyone in the government (likely any government) is going to mess with this machine even the truth is staring them in the face, despite their occasional veil of lip service they are the worst example of green washing. Any candidate who talks about caring for the environment and also wants to provide any benefits/incentives for breeding is a bona fide green washer and shouldn't be taken seriously at any level because of the inherent contradiction in their argument. Caution should be exercised around this candidate as they will yak it up while picking your pocket. They either lack the self-awareness to see the contradiction in their environment, or worse, they think most others are too unobservant to notice the contradiction.

To a certain extent it is prey (breeders) versus predators (rich people profiting off breeders) but it isn't an exact science since the childfree would also be considered predators to the extent that they chose to not breed. There are also predators that have relatively little power and influence and predators that hide behind the behavior of prey in order to gain more power collectively from prey (think politicians who have brats). Also consider a celebrity who may have brats to be more "relatable" gain more followers and make more money to their followers and willingly (?) go from predator to prey yet at the same time they still have more money and power at their disposal than most.

Despite the technology of current day society one day it will be reflected upon as a dark age for this and many other reasons (think health sick care, the fact that baybees are born in the same buildings as mostly unhealthy people, prisons/nursing homes with no outlet that keep people contained in a small space, schools that force students to be in the same room and learn the same concepts based mostly on their age, etc.)
