Because relentless bad news breeds cynicism, which is demoralizing and self-defeating. In this community there’s already plenty of that to go round. The full story is slightly more complex.

Okay Thanos, that’s enough for today. But you may be excited to know that birth rates across the globe are falling to the point that a population decline is in the works.
Thanos was right, but he was weak. Half? That only buys time.
It does make me happy the population is going down, but it will go back up again. We have too many people for the resources of our planet, and the way we use those resources. We need to give back large amounts to Mother Earth.
I dunno man, I bet the current population trajectory plus improvements in efficiency/ conservation with a lot less capitalism will likely be sufficient. 90% just seems like a lot more work than necessary.
Prior to the Industrial Revolution the population hovered around 1 billion give or take a few hundred million. Let’s go back there.
The planet could handle more with modern tech and conservation practices.
That’s never gonna happen
