Ah yes, fascism. There is literally no excuse. There are people who say "8 billion people arent sustainable" but the truth is that one population of 8 billion is completely sustainable while there are populations of 10 thousand that arent. Obviously referring to the billionaires here. Hell, i think 8 billion people would probably fit comfortably in europe leaving the rest of earth unpopulated if we desired so for... some reason. More people is generally better for the economy and thats ignoring the fact that it is simply the only acceptable thing to do to let immigrants in.
I remember seeing a map a few years ago. Basically it said that if we built a megalopolis with the housing density of Paris, all of humanity would fit into half of Texas, but if we went for Tokyo density, we would all fit into Louisiana.
Worst part of that hypothetical becoming literal truth would be everyone having to live in Louisiana.
True, but they have some pretty good food, and would instantly be a micro minority, lol. Same for Texas
