No just tired of ecofascists repeating the same tired trope. Maybe educate yourself.

I think the entire human race is cursed, so I don´t know how I could be accused of racism or eugenicism? But I’ll listen to the podcast, though, I suspect they are rejecting a premise based on not liking its conclusion.

Also, I think our conclusions are basically different. Like Paul Ehrlich, Malthus-repackager and Population Bomb author, thinks we should turn the rest of world into a military prison to enforce his population control policies while people in the US are merely offered tax incentives or some shit. I don’t agree with that.
In fact, if I were going to choose which population to control and/or exterminate, I’d pick societies that are highly extractive, like the one I live in, and prefer the ones that make lower demands on the environment, like the ones the people you say I agree with want to genocide.
But I’m not about controlling population or exterminating anyone. I just think the human race, like this conversation, is doomed.

Unfortunately this is the natural conclusion of arguing that “humanity is a virus”
