Birth Control and Overpopulation

I remember back when I was a kid and you heard all about what a problem overpopulation was. That was when there were actually billions fewer people on Earth than there are now.  But you really don't hear that much about overpopulation. On the contrary, we're often told, here in the US and Western Europe, that we don't have enough people and we have to import millions more from the Third World or everything will fall apart.  Well, what happened is that the propaganda worked.  The whole purpose of scaring us about overpopulation was to get people in the advanced part of the world to cut its birth rate. There was little concern about the Third World population explosion.  Well, that advanced part of the world is now reproducing so little that it's actually shrinking in population.  And what we're talking about, really, is the White race plus Japan.  The people in the world most responsible for order and civilization are disappearing — mission accomplished.

It's interesting that birth control, usually including abortion, was once the great weapon in the fight against overpopulation.  Back when liberals were semi-sane, they especially wanted nonWhites to use birth control, not because they didn't like nonWhites, but because they were obviously reproducing so fast that they had no hope of raising themselves out of poverty unless they limited their family size. Also, of course Whites had already limited their family size, for the most part, so they didn't need to have birth control urged on them.  But now such talk is racism, a species of thoughtcrime.  So if you want anybody, White or nonWhite, rich or poor, to use birth control, you have to couch the whole discussion in terms of "Women 's Rights," a new liberal superstition.

So when the neocons who like to make a fuss about this sort of thing want to annoy liberal advocates of birth control/abortion, they needle them with the fact that it means fewer nonWhites, especially fewer Blacks, and that means that, unlike the angelic neocons, liberals are racist!  As delightful as it is to have the term backfire on liberals, it makes the neocons look like the morons they are, because they seem to be saying that we don't have enough nonWhites wallowing in poverty, and good conservatives should want more and more of them.  Idiots.

Interestingly, some nonWhites, like the Chinese, have realized that reasonable limits on family size is actually good for them, and have taken steps to accomplish it.  On the other hand, liberal Whites, who for generations have reproduced at a reasonable rate, have decided to self-destruct, and reproduce below replacement level, and basically wreck their own civilization.  Suicide-prone, they think we should dwindle in order to make room for the population explosion from the Third World.  To use a word that liberals like to use in other connections, that's not "sustainable," is it?

Well, this connection between birth control/abortion and the unmentioned overpopulation issue, with its added racial dimension, should be obvious, but most of us miss it.  Steve Sailer hasn't missed it, though.  His essay on the subject is HERE.

  1. I was banned for life from commenting at the (now Catholic-leaning) Chronicles Magazine website for advocating a massive birthrate drop-off in Mexico and India. I'm afraid that conservative Catholics (and many fundamentalist Protestants) just aren't realistic on this issue.
