Give me a break. How about the people having kids in:

  • -900,000: Whatever happened to kill off almost all humans
  • -1177: Bronze Age collapse
  • 535: Volcanic winter of 536
  • 1347-1351: Black Death
  • 1914-1918: WWI and Spanish Flu
  • 1929-1939: Great Depression and Dust Bowl
  • 1962: Great Leap Forward
  • 1943-1945: Worst killings and bombings of WWII
  • 2020: For our lifetimes. COVID and 100 other disasters. So bad most have forgotten it started with Australia burning to the ground, 1 billion animals killed.

As to racism, we watched Mississippi Burning last night. My wife isn't from America and was horrified. "Honey, that was happening when our parents were kids."

I don't think you understand why people stop having kids, do you? video

You're right we should have stopped having children millennia ago. I wish my parents never met.

2024+: Climate change, water wars, resultant mass migration, worldwide rise of fascism.
