Please, describe to me how pointing out the inevitability of population increase is terrorism.
You don't need to weaponize "sorry" — just don't say it.
It doesn't make sense to jump to ad hominem attacks because someone's calling you out on a statement that seems completely irrelevant.

It is intellectual terrorism. I am sorry but sometimes things must be called out even if the feelings of thin-skinned people are hurt.
It is only 'inevitable' because no-one has cared about it and, worse because some try to downplay the issue.
I did not accuse you personally, but you also did not say that it was inevitable, you spread the opinion that it was fine.
Those who claim that it is all good are pushing us to the abyss.
Edit: Downvoting the inconvenient truth won't make it go away.

I don't know if anyone's ever told you this, but you're being outwardly shitty when you have no reason to be. You're just throwing the word terrorism around disingenuously to get a rise out of people.

It was not disingenuous. You complain too much while avoiding the point.

Your only point is that the suggestion of the earth supporting 10bn people is akin to terrorism (which you later amended to "intellectual terrorism"), which I'd argue is objectively disingenuous... and completely pointless.
This conversation has reached the point of unproductive a while ago.
I'm sure you'll try to bait me back into it, because you fit that MO, but you're on your own.
...and even if I did say it was "just fine" it wouldn't be tantamount to terrorism because I was pointing out something that is very likely inevitable.
I'm not invoking 3 billion people by assuming one day they will exist.
