Im 61, i decided another I nor the planet could afford kids 40 years aho and had a vasectomy.

over those 40 years endless articles about people not producing more grist for the mill

A nice goal would be a planet with 100 million at most

Well the last time the global population was around 100 million was over 2000 years ago, so I think that asking for a 99% reduction in human life is screaming eco-fascist

A planet with 100 million at fucking most? Are you stupid or something?

You'll need to outline your objections more clearly.

If you don’t want kids, and you have a vasectomy, that would mean you’re fucking smart.
