So.

I hear that India is getting better but lots of it is pretty shit.

Large parts of Africa are similarly underdeveloped.

Why are birth rates so high in these regions and not in more developed areas?

Like. I understand the thesis that things are pretty shit so why have kids that prevails in more developed nations - but why does that not hold true in less developed ones? Where things are arguably more shit?

because "developed nations" are filled with self-indulgent narcissistic selfish people who would understandably spend their resources, all that time and energy, for something more enjoyable than trying to breed some more self-indulgent narcissistic selfish 💩
