If you think the earth is dying because poor people are having too many babies, that's about three logical steps away from ecofascism.

    Plus, fossil fuel use is probably going to continue for a while “after socialism” anyway

    It cannot. All fossil fuel use should have been stopped years ago.

    But moreover, nowhere in my comment did I suggest killing anyone, and I even suggested possible avenues for solution.

    My own mindset though is that based on climate publications these past few years we're completely fucked anyway; have kids, don't, do what makes you happy at this point. Maybe they'll even survive to live in the apocalyptic hell-hole that will precede human extinction, and find a measure of happiness there. Enjoy the time you have left in any case.

        No worries, I understand completely - like 90% of the time when someone talks about overpopulation in that context they're a fucking ecofascist, so it's easy enough to jump on that conclusion.
