  • I live in Canada. It would take me 3 days.

    Anyway you dont have to go to the capital to put up resistance. This isnt 18th century France.

    I'll give you an example. My country was practically shut down for a week by a handful of people because they organized and blocked the railroads. Canada is highly dependant on its rail freight.

    Not saying that works in the US. Just that there are ways if resisting that dont involve marching with some signs in the street. Your government doesnt care. Protests wont work.

  • Protest peacefully and grumble while more rights are stripped. I have zero faith in Americans anymore. They wont do what needs to be done.

  • Ah. Thats a different argument. I can understand that though I find it pessimistic. Im annoyed at people saying overconsumption is due to too many people in the world. It isnt. Its because, well, OVER consuming resources by a relatively small percent of the population.

  • Who the fuck mentioned communism?

    Also the take Im arguing against is literally "we just need to stop having kids" so your meme really isnt doing what you hope it will.

  • Ill give my shpeal on this quickly. There arent too many people on the planet. There are too many people to sustain our shitty, wasteful western lifestyles. People who advocate for a lower population are intentionally or unwittingly arguing their wasteful lifestyle is more important than the needs of others.

    Its a selfish take with no basis in reality. The science is clear. The earth can sustain a lot more people if we arent all living stupid lifestyles where we order fucking plastic dolls of fucking anime characters created by slave labor off Amazon every day.

  • Also why does having a baby automatically have to be about the sex? Yes you need sex to have one but thats not the point. People want kids.

  • I live in an agricultural area and food from farmers markets is usually cheaper than at the store. But we have tons of farmers markets around here so maybe thats a factor.
