"When a culture approves of sexual activity before marriage, researchers have found that monogamy, belief in God, and rational thinking tend to disappear within three generations."
I think the west broke the record and got it down to about two generations.
It's an interesting article, but it "What ended the Baby Boom? In three words: second wave feminism."
I don't think so. Who needs "second wave feminism" when, for example, the communists can make it against the law to have more than one child? Isn't it simpler to acknowledge that massive leftist government and NGO policies to decrease population had an effect?
Second wave feminism is communism. The NGOs and government prop up women above their market value at the expense of men. Communists in the Soviet Union were sending women to the workplace and having women wear pants (and not skirts) long before they affected Western countries.
Excellent point. It looks like the governments' depopulation programs were unnecessary overkill; other factors, including leftist feminism and weakening the family as a system, were going to do the job anyway
The government is always going to be a kingmaker for factions. The government will either be pro-family or anti-family; there is nothing in between. It might not be as explicit as compulsory laws, but it will have favorable rhetoric and treatment for certain people and not others.
While it is nice to talk about general trends, I do think we get lost in the weeds with abstract ideology, forgetting what the implications are. I would love to discuss individual policies on a case-by-case basis. Sometimes details are important. For examples, I saw libertarians and conservatives arguing with each other, and I was like "do we even know what we are talking about? What specific laws are we going to have?" I definitely like specificity over broad abstract ideologies. I will be me, and you can classify me as you see fit.
"I definitely like specificity over broad abstract ideologies."
IMHO this one advantage that the leftists have and exploit. Their ideas are less parts of an ideology than they are tactics to use to move the Overton window and advance their political agenda.
And, yes, rightists believer their ideology and become obsessed with arguing about ideas and do not get to the point of acting on specifics.
Good point. You're right, South Korean fertility rate is .72 and the government is getting desperate.
So I guess the question is one of cause-and-effect? Were the government efforts to decrease the population just ineffectual effects of the coming depopulation?
It's the jew, dude, it's not new! Since Before Babylonian times! Wakey² don't be afraid to mention there fearporn and lies in the future!🤔😎 Call a spade a spade! We have to fight them, they really aren't human! They have wanted all Goyim(non-jew) dead since Babylonian Talmudic times,
Also, civilizations never stay sane once they normalize premarital sex. https://open.substack.com/pub/movingtorussia/p/sexual-restraint-helps-cultures-flourish?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=2354sx

There is also an article about how we already had a solution to low fertility rates in first world countries, and then proceeded to sabotage said solution. https://open.substack.com/pub/aporiamagazine/p/the-baby-boom?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=2354sx

Fertility collapsed as much in other East Asian countries that didn't implement one child policies.

What I find disturbing is that South Korea has a lower fertility rate than Japan. Like, when did that happen?
The sexual revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
Hmmmm. I wonder!
But it's not just women having infertility... men, too.
Well, THIS might help wake the masses...?
We're travelling down that road, so I feel like soon, this bubble is gonna burst... Yep.
Good post!
Good point about the men, and thanks for the compliemnt.
It's all just so... stupid. And sad, too, all this insanity.
I'm glad to read your posts, you're on the Good Team. xo
Removing obstacles to fertility will probably have a bigger impact that more welfare programs.
