Young people may disenfranchise themselves for other reasons but so does the system itself when you don’t want a main party. Voting 3rd party has the same affect as staying up late and sleeping in on the day.

Would it have to be extreme where people are straving? A nation already wealthy has a lot of infrastructure which just needs to be maintained or adapted?

It appears a lot more are comming globally, and into a world we’ve badly treated and poorly prepaired for them. I bet we mostly agree on that.

Do you prefer the population size as it is, or a bit more?

Supporting old people is already a sector of business. A wealthy country should already be on top of this? Can we not improve using automation to meet the higher demand?

How does producing less stuff make people poorer? Less people need less stuff, and there’s more unoccupied houses?

I’m not an economist so I will take your words on this, though I still struggle to believe it’s an issue and have some remarks.

I am not worried about needing enought people for jobs. Given advances in inteligence automation then we can’t forever have enough jobs for all humans. If a country can impliment a universal basic income then the citizens can at least have a basic living.

Why are most countries based on growth? That appears reckless. Unless we expand into space then at least population growth caps out at some point. Doesn’t every other growth have a limit?

I’ve heard the claim rapid decline is terrible before. I imagine there may be some adjustments people dislike which is easier to adjust on a slower rate of decline… but “misery”, how?

Sounds great to me. Wish every country had a declining birth rate.

I bet they use the terms emoji, karaoke, tsunami, karate or origami.

Or twitter, for short

The feeling is mutual, so hope this would be on the first date to save us all time.

Not them but depending on the context then yes. People sincerely believe in astrology and the logic to get there can equally apply to other aspects of life. Doing it “for fun” would need to be crystal clear to remove that red flag.

/s Those polygones are at it again, ruining <home country here>.

Every party should include ridicule of ridiculous Malaysian laws.

A value in faith or sacred writings is in no way more “human” than a disdain for the illogical.

How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?

Doesn’t that bet on Putin still being alive in the long term, or Russia’s next leader still being aan ally? Seems short sighted.

Did they do that for money or disagreements (e.g. treatment of LGBT people)?

What does South Africa get out of him visiting? Disregarding the idea of peace talks.

Wish it was easier to just install stock Android on a new phone.
