We all ought to focus on that whole 7 billion thing…or wait, isn’t it 8 now? Will be 9 soon.
Infinite population growth in a world of finite resources is not, and never will be, possible. Less people = more resources per person and higher quality of life.
It’s not eugenics, by definition, if it doesn’t favor any specific traits. I never suggested anything like that at all.
And sorry, discussion of population controls need to enter politics as that is literally the only meaningful way to fight climate change.
But yeah, I’m not hopeful lol so you don’t have much to worry about. We will probably just continue to not take any meaningful action and continue to destroy our climate and world.
Literally everyone in the age range to be a potential parent. Perhaps drawn once a year. The winners can have children this year, while the others cannot. If both people in a couple win they can have two or something. Non-heteronormative couples and artificial insemination is fine. If someone wins and chooses not to have children that year or is unable for whatever that’s completely fine.

You will be missed, and your sacrifice will not be forgotten!
any policy of population control is necessarily eugenecist. you can personally favor it, but kindly keep it away from politics.

what policy can you introduce that doesn’t favor a specific trait?
A randomized lottery system.
